I'm weary of getting ripped off. Anybody know a place that can give me an estimate and do the proper repairs for a fair price?

Open the hood and make sure the engine is still in there.

I can change my oil, brakes and tires. That's about it. Not a car guy.

P0455
P0441
P0456

Looked them up and it's mostly environmental crap. More than 1 possible root cause for all of them. That's why I want to take it to a professional.
