I had been having a problem with the engine sometimes stalling when I came to a stop. The rpm would always drop to about 200rpm when decelerating through 1mph, then it would either recover or stall when I came to a complete stop.
Dealer said they found a vacuum leak at the fuel filler neck (under the gas cap). I was actually amazed that they were capable of making such a diagnosis, and was equally amazed to find that it did actually solve the problem.
I was horified to hear that the repair involved removing the front right fender, but I am please to report that there is no adverse evidence of their intrusion.
On the downside, a few days later I tried to put gas in the car, but the gas cap would not open. Argh! Another trip to the dealer and a one-hour wait solved that problem. (Did I mention that dealers suck?).
