Im not sure but it sounds decent (based on my independant dealer's pricing) .. I have the same exact problem, I am interested if others more knowledgable have an idea of good pricing on this!

Hell no, let your fingers do the walking.... Parts should be 250-400 range unless they are charging you full retail and the labor is easy...1 hour max. you should pay no more than 500.... what are they charging for parts and labor ? You can try finding a bosch maf etc. and just shop for a shop to do the labor ? negotiate with those guys once you get the brake down .. It should be a 150 max for labor..

There are 4 O2 sensor all together. But you really just need to change the upstream 2. Those get beat up the most because they are ahead of the cats and subject to more extreme heat than the down stream ones.

I don't know about the O2 sensors, but I have yet to see a vehicle in which it is too difficult to replace a Mass Air Flow sensor. On my V8 it is a ten minute job and that's cleaning up everything as I go along.
