Ah Ha!! Put down four mouse traps in the garage yesterday and caught three mice. The trap with two was under my car. I'll now keep traps in the garage all of the time!
I’d check your cabin filter if possibleAh Ha!! Put down four mouse traps in the garage yesterday and caught three mice. The trap with two was under my car. I'll now keep traps in the garage all of the time!

Tell us how a vacuum line will only cause a single cylinder misfire.They chewed a hole in a vacuum line, betting on it
Engine and cabin filters, pull the air box or blower motor if necessaryI’d check your cabin filter if possible
If its port is adjacent to the cylinder misfiring, it can cause this. Seems implausible, but I promise it can happen.Tell us how a vacuum line will only cause a single cylinder misfire.
Theoretically possible, but extremely unlikely. It would likely set lean codes as well.If its port is adjacent to the cylinder misfiring, it can cause this. Seems implausible, but I promise it can happen.
Think you're correct. House mice are a solid color, while deer mice have white bellies. According to a quick Google (info via Orkin).I am not an expert but those almost look like deer mice?

Bet there are a few on here that don't get that reference (meme).Just got word from the dealer - yup, the mice chewed through the wire harness behind the engine. Repair cost is $495 (actually less than I expected). Also the heater blower in my wife's car in the same garage is partially clogged and making noise, undoubtedly from the mouse we caught under her car. We'll take that to the shop for a cleaning. Next I replace the worn seals on the bottom of the garage doors and keep glue mouse traps throughout the garage.

Glad you got it sorted out and yes, $495 is less than most of those repairs cost, so you got lucky!Just got word from the dealer - yup, the mice chewed through the wire harness behind the engine.

I'm 43, and I got it. Used to watch all those old Hanna-Barbera cartoons on USA network Saturday mornings at my grandparents' house during summer break. Anyway...Bet there are a few on here that don't get that reference (meme).
But unfortunately I do. I can also still hear Huckleberry Hounds rendition of O My Darling Clementine.
That was going to be my professional opinion too.They look like DEAD mice to me.
