another ding in 3 days

just got back from the dealership with my new to me r3 and had a engine light this morning. Had it checked and it turns out to be a air motor on the intake that is going bad to the tune of $2000.00, that is not to mention the window motor/ regulator that went bad monday. I am having a bad mazda day, is it really that hard to change this air motor. I am being told 2 days withthe engine coming out to get to it. Someone please help, I am already looking at 2500 bucks and haven't had my r3 for 2 weeks. It is an 09 with 46k on it.

I thought the tech said air motor but may have said pump. I was told that the intake would have to come off and that the lower of the intake may need cleaning.
