It started a few weeks ago right after we washed the car (getting ready to trade it in, go figure!).There is also a weird air sucking noise in the engine and a loud screech when we hit the gas. It runs, but it won't go faster than about 20 mph.We've tried replacing the EGR valve sensor, throttle position sensor, mass airflow sensor, and the air and fuel filters. We have no idea what to do anymore and we keep getting the same answers from people so I thought I would try here.Any suggestions would be helpful! Thanks!</blockquote>
