It sounds to me like they were backed up with service and did not have a loaner available, so they never really looked at the codes carefully, just assumed it was something minor, and sent arguru on his way. The "emission" thing was just BS. Because let's face it, this is a car that throws an error for not tightening the gas cap all the way.

Given that the thread is pretty long at this point, I don't know if anything has been brought up to rule out this most obvious possibility. Anyone?
