So, I was told that the PCV breather filter was the problem. They took the whole think apart, replaced the unit, cleaned out all of the oil (about a half litre) they found in the intake manifold and the MAF sensor. They said that they got most of the oil in the manifold, but I'd have to drive it around for a while to burn off the rest. Cost for this repair was just over $400. Alfred said to drive it around for a few more days, if the problem recurs, then it's an engine issue and it'll require more investigation.

I'm hoping that this will be the last I'll hear of it. I do think that he was being honest with me on this matter, so I'm happy to not pursue this any further if my car is fine after this most recent repair.

Thanks,

Legume
