Well, just got a call from the dealership, they are replacing both Vanos Solenoids as the timing advance was messed up causing the reduced power, according to the mechanic. Also getting a free oil change outta it. We'll see how she purrs after this is suppose. Considering I haven't had any long crank issues, maybe it's not the HPFP.
