Yeah, sounds like the flange. I had mine break almost a year ago. The shop charged me $400.

good deal u might want to check if ur coils have been replaced cuz those go bad also pretty quick and then u will be left in limp mode or worse stranded.

also check ur vac lines cuz when i threw a code taht said something bout the cat it ended up being a vaccume line that had a leak. So check ur vac lines and ur sensors to make sure they arent corrided or any of that good stuff.
