I would suggest pulling the car's codes before spending any money on parts. This should give you a really good idea as to where the issue is coming from. Please let us know if you have any other questions or if we can assist with any future part needs.

I just had mine replaced under my extended warranty at 71k miles. I guess the runner on the intake manifolds is an issue on this car like it was on my VW GTI. Not nearly as common though.
