The symptoms of this issue actually crop up after the car has been driven for a while as the pressure valve presumably gets stuck open after being open for a bit. If my car sits at idle until it's war...

I was told it is a 6 1/2 hour job (i can't recall their hourly rate, but I think it's about $85/hr) so about $550 labour with parts on top, parts costing about $150, so about $700+ in the end

I have a usual mechanic, I'll see what kind of price I am looking at and if I can supply the part (if their price is high or the part is non-OEM).
