k, car is in the shop now. they are cleaning it. had to replace the airfilter, cuz it was soaked.
they wanted me to pay labor, I said I didnt feel comfortable paying that. we came down me paying the airfilter. fair enough.

How do you have an '04 and have the 4 point? I have an '04 GT and I know its not a 4 point strut bar...
Good news about the filter I guess.... still have any idea how it got in there?

Im not taking my car to this dealer ANYMORE!!!
so they cleaned up the intake before the throttle body, okay.
but they scratched up the ouside of my airbox due to cleaning it on the floor I guess.
oh well, maybe time for a true CAI?

The lower 90 Degree Pipe with Yellow paint marker on it going into filler is the return from your EMOP's, Metering Oil Pumps.
As you know I would always check oil levels after anyone touched my car (I do all mine myself), if you want to be really sure on the correct level, do the following.
Car on a level flat surface, standing overnight so it is cold, read your Oil Level, it should be around 5 mm or 1/4 inch BELOW the Full Mark on Dip Stick, anything closer to the full 'F' when cold and you have too much oil.
In other words my method is the same as checking when engine is Hot and after 5 minutes thingy when oil should be on F mark.
