The purpose of my post was to let others know what my symptoms were ( which were different than those in the archives ), and to give an idea of the costs. In fact, the dealer is splitting the repair cost with me since I had brought it in before the warranty was expired and they missed it. So I will be paying $200. I thought that posting the results of my visit would have been helpful, and didn't expect the critics to come out.
By the way, in order to get a deal at Pep Boys, you have to have one near you.
