It's a super-easy fix. Details on how to do it are here, search "CPS" and you'll see what I mean.
Are you saying the part is not covered by the power train or that it would be to my advantage to fix it myself? I looked up the part and it said it was a power train part. I ordered it for $51 and the local mechanic shop said it would cost $45 to install. However, they said they cannot guarantee this will correct the problem with the car.

If the part is covered by the power train warranty, wouldn't it be better to let the dealer fix it?
