When you say "shop" do you mean your regular shop, a specialized independent or dealership?

Purrrrfect. If they diagnosed the brake boost hose and didn't try and 'hose' you, sounds like a great shop to stay with.

Brake booster pipe. Mine has a T piece just to the right of the joint in the pic. Which has a small hose attached that disappears under the battery compartment. Is this some sort of breather pipe.
