I went to the nearer Pep Boys and the General Manager took a while to talk to me, explain things, look at my car himself, and he said that he really thought that the timing belt was off, but since it ran fine for a week and a half, I guess that it somehow slipped, although it is curious that it coincided with my Faulty Knock Sensor code, although I guess that a slipped belt could cause the code.

The GM asked me to go back and give the first store a chance to make it right. I think that I came in about 9am and I called them before they closed. They said that they started on my car, but were still looking at it.

I have had more confidence...
