P.S. -- Being fairly literate in the workings of a car, I've noticed that I get an ENTIRELY different conversation than my girlfriend does when she calls in. If you want better details of what is going on, I'd simply have a person more schooled in automobiles call the shop the next time. They'll likely get a more detailed explanation than you, due to your percieved lack-of-knowledge. They'll jerk you around with the jargon until you think you need to replace the MAF, the injectors, the piston rings, timing belt, and a few other things.
