...MORE problems

Took my car in first for very hard starting, horrible idle, and check engine light. Got it back, everythings fine. not even a month later, check engine light, and sounds like birds are living under my car (loud chirping) and my oil looks liek chocolate milk. They told me that the foming mily oil is normal, my check engine light was on because my gascap was loose (causing the cel to come on) and that they couldnt replicate the chirping. #1 i showed the service manager the chirping before they took my car in and he agreed. So i took my car home anyway, it was nice out and i just wanted to be back in it. The chirping noise (sound sliek a squeeky belt, but i knwo its not) has been going on since the dealership and hasnt stopped. My check engine light turned on AGAIN today and my idle is rough, and its hard to start. Thought it was the gas cap again, so tightened it an drove around a little.... nope.Brought it in rigth away, this time left the car running till a tech could look at it with me in front of him, and he said he didnt hear anything... a service writer lady sitting at a desk 10ft away said "what do you mean? you cant hear that chirping bird sound!?" bingo... someone finally agrees with me. They have no cars left to give me till tues, so he said just to drive it and dont worry about the cel unless it starts blinking. Im getting furious.... my 92000 mile S2000 never gave me these problems... not even mitsubishi's service was this bad with my evo. I love this car more than both of them, but come on!
