I have had a check engine light for about a week. I went to a auto parts store to have it read and the reader did not give a description. P013C Any help is appreciated. I have already replaced on O2 sensor and I figure it is one of the other three.

P0130 is MAF sensor, I believe, you can try cleaning the sensor and see what happens.

Looks like it might be another O2 sensor:

Is Bank 2 the left side or right side of the car? I am guessing #2 is the aft sensor.

According to Bavarian Autosport, your N62 V8's bank 2 is cylinders 5 - 8 on the left (U.S. driver's) side. The Bentley manual (page 120-2) shows cylinders 1-4 on the right side, and 5-8 on the left side, so the left bank looks like bank #2 to me.

Yeah, sensor 2 sounds like the one after the cat.

HTH, and best of luck!

that is the one that i already replaced. I will check the connection. The CEL light has not come back on since the reset.

Fingers crossed!

anyway to verify that a o2 sensor is bad off the car?

Ok it is something more serious. Today the light came on and it was flashing and the car was misfiring, badly. I must have bad fuel, bad coil, bad spark plug or ??? I turned the car off counted to 10 and started it again. Now no light or issues. Appointment made for Monday next week.

best1, I just had that happen to me with the scary and dreaded "engine malfunction" message but turning the car off then back on did not help. I had to have the coil for cylinder one replaced and they also replaced all of the spark plugs.
