Confidence Gone

This has been an odd week.  It began when my car stopped on the road.  Somehow, I got it going and then left it in the garage for the weekend.  Monday morning, I drove to town to see a mechanic.  Something was clearly wrong.

The mechanics couldn't find the problem so off to Subaru. It was painful to see Snowball2 being towed.

I am told the screen in the air box was removed.  How?  I have no clue.  Unless someone at the tire place removed it thinking he was checking the air filter.  Or maybe it was stolen.  Either way, it has been a costly week.  The worst part is I have lost confidence in my beloved car.  It will take a while to get it back.  The confidence, hopefully, not the car.
