Re: intake gasket failure diagnosis
first off if u still have that nasty oil in the car DRAIN IT NOW, and when you get the LIM off wash the the block out with fresh oil to try to dilute/flush the old oil out. when coolant and oil mix they become very acidic and it thickens the oil and will mess up all your seals and then you will just ...

Re: Surging Question
when your driving will it die if u slow down to quickly, like stopping at stop sign quickly?? if so try cleaning the IAC (idle air control valve) that would explain all of your issues.... its what regulates the amount of air going to the motor at idle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ST0qUTAztPk

I think I know what your issue is...there was another member(beamer) having essentially the same problem. What is happening is that you have a bad coil back feeding to your ICM and frying it prematurely and causing a rough idle and dieing problem...The CPS was probably coincidental ...

Re: Shudder/vibration at launch acceleration
I think crash93ssei is on to something...the way that shop determined the subframe "is twisted" doesn’t necessarily mean the frame is twisted. did the shop measure the cv axles to make sure they had not come apart?

Re: ICM's keep burning out

I believe there is another ignition issue causing a misfire and killing your ICM I.E. plugs, wires, camshaft position sensor...ETC

Re: A/C Compressor leakage
I recently went through almost the same thing...I took it to a shop first to have the system charged with leak detection refrigerant (UV responsive dye) and diagnosed. I was then quoted $750 for parts and labour, long story short i did the repairs myself for around $225, granted I own a vacuum pump ...
