That's what I'd look for first. Or even just a connector that is not fully plugged in. Odd for it to show up suddenly after all that work. Bad for the mechanic to deliver it to you like that.

I recently replaced the pre-cat O2 sensors in my 2001 3.0, where they were working fine but at 169k miles. I thought I might see an increase in MPG following the change, but it runs just like before, which is very well. So the O2 sensors can go for a long time.

If I had just spent $3k on repairs, my first step would actually be to ask the mechanic about it and if he will inspect and fix for free if indeed he tweaked it.
