Thanks. Just got the car back from the dealer. They went with what they
thought was a faulty valve on the cannister. No charge. Drove back to
work and car hesitated and ck engine lite came back on. Sigh. They're
looking at it Mon and this time they think they'll check the fuel pressure
sensor. Just an update.

 

Last time I took a car to that chain.... the A/C developed a leaky line near
the compressor a few days later and I brought it back claiming that they had
damaged it. The service guy at the desk said "...for your car's kind of
repair, we don't touch the A/C system.... you are wrong..."... unfortunately
for him, a car just like mine was having the same repair done right behind
me and. surprise suprise, the mechanic had the AC compressor unbolted from
its brace and flipped back on top of the aircleaner. Unbelievably, the
service writer STILL tried to claim that they never do it... even after
pointing out the live example.

I met some folks who have worked there... they tended to put untrained
people on repair jobs that are complex even if the employee complains.
Imagine someone trained (only) to replace tires being told he has to take
the dash apart to do some major repair....

Hope your local place is better than this... although I found similar
incompetence in that places' shops in other parts of the country too
(relatives used to get service done there).
