Guess what???
The entire time this has been going on, the dealership never thought about replacing the scavenger pump!!! They had only replaced the main pump!!!
I can't believe their lack of logic and thought... If this doesn't fix the problem I'd be shocked.

Not surprised a dealer wouldnt know of a second pump.
I bet most of their techs dont read manuals like most folks
As far as the 2 tanks: i was aware of it and that's why the car handles noticeably better at half a tank.
Anyhow, hope this solves your issue permanently. Logic would suggest the second pump was the culprit here.
