Here's the latest for the Sensor Survey.  There have been 19 replies to
date and listed below are the Sensors and other components that have
been replaced along with the respective number of miles:

*	Cam Position - 4 @ 70k, 85k, 110k, 114k.
*	Multi-Function Temp. {MFTS} - 4 @ 75k, 102k, 112k, 115k.
*	Mass Air Flow {MAF} - 2 @ 95k, 100k.

*	Other components reported:

*                   Power Output Stage {POS} - 8:  2 in the same car @
80 & 90k, and 73k, 89k, 90k, 110k, 150k, 201k.
*                   Coils - 3:  2 reported in the same car @ 80 & 100k,
and 1 @ 163k.
*                   Oil pressure sender - 1 @ 100k, owner noted that he
believes changing to synthetic oil caused it to leak.
*                   Thermostat - 3:  reported in the same car that has
210k.

Duly noted - several of the Listeners, with cars having well over 150k,
have reported that they have not replaced any sensors except for the 02.
Additionally, if you remove the POS from the list because it is not a
Sensor {one Listener believes the failure of the POS is due to power
washing the engine, i.e. anal nature of most S-Car owners}, then it
appears that the Sensors of the UrS4/6 Cars are durable components of
these truly AMAZING CARS.

Thanks to all who replied.
