Thanks for all the help, guys. Although I appreciate your experience, I have good reason to trust the shop that made these recommendations. So, I am going to start with them.
Mark's link is below - thanks for the great pictures!!
Can anyone point me to the resonance flaps?
Mark, what did you use for cleaning and lube on your flaps? Do you replace the CCV lines or just clean?
jdlow, do you think nyou are refereing to what the dealer calls "vacuum transducers?" Can you also point me to the vacuum pieces you mentioned?
Thanks again!!!
