07 S550: thermostat

[kevm14]

I should print something yes. I also need to bring in my receipt for the thermostat from Jan actually.

And they claim it passed the test and they have the printout to prove it. Great. Well that didn't work out the way I had hoped. I'll either wait until it gets worse or just replace it on my own dime.

Picking it up tonight.

Are they charging you for diag?

[kevm14]

No he said he wouldn't. And no apparent upsell on the state inspection. Given all possibilities I declare this a positive experience. I guess I should wait until I have the car though....

The results speak for themselves (could not duplicate customer concern). Also it behaved perfectly on the drive home.

And it behaved perfectly on the drive in. I think I observed that weather more in the 50F range triggers it. I don't know what that means or if it's anything more than circumstantial.
