Mechanic says I need three evap valves replaced. Quoted me $750. Seems like a decent guy and admitted to me that it's not essential other than I might get some fuel smell and lose some mileage. Car is a 2000 Accord and I only drive it occassionally. Sound right?

2 months pass...

So I'm getting this wheel noise when I drive at low speeds -- sort of a rhythmic "shuh shuh shuh shuh shuh" that increases and decreases with speed (presumably at faster speeds I don't hear it because the wheel is spinning too fast). I do have a slightly bent wheel cover and at first I thought it was just the sound of air rushing into it, but now I'm not sure (although, duh, I should probably try taking it off and driving without it to see).
