Before I spend next weekend poking around underneath the damn thing, does anyone have any BTDT's that could save me a little time (and $$$).
Sounds like the Michelin Man hose which runs from the intercooler to
the throttle body. If you feel underneath it's probably split. Stay
well away from the dealer when purchasing a new one.
