    Is my p5 totally screwed?

    I'd suggest borrowing a code reader and pulling the codes yourself before you start plunking down $$. I wouldn't trust what any shop "told" me. Besides, your P5 may be throwing different codes now, AND reading the codes will tell you what problems have been fixed (i.e. no code for X problem).
