another Engine Failsafe Prog

Hi all,

Got this message a few days ago... then "DSC Inactive" a few mins later, with the "4x4" and "DSC" lights came on. Switch off / on the engine help to clear them, but it returns shortly after.

Anyways, the workshop tracked it down to the airflow sensor. And at the same time, the fuel level sensor is faulty as well.

Mine is a 2002 4.6is, so far I've had the following sensors failed and replaced in the last 4 months:
- O2 sensor
- airflow sensor
- fuel level sensor

Is this normal?

Also, the Engine oil seem to have vanished very quickly (in about a month or 2-3k km after refilled, I have to top up 2 liters of oil). I confirmed that there's no leak. Is this normal?
