2010 base Cooper. I was in the dealership to get my key read to find out what routine maintenance I might be missing, they offered a free checkup. The $2K list of things to do it needed came as a surprise, and they didn't offer to bring me in back to see the process, and the service writer was a bit surly about answering questions, though he did say the conclusion was based on "leakage and faults".
I checked cafefully for any leakage and so did a friend who is much better at such things that me, neither of us saw any leakage. I replaced the thermo sensor last summer myself, so I am fairly familiar with the thermostat and how it fits in.
My cheapo Autel scanner doesn't seem to do temp, so no idea of that.
Oh, and I parked it hot over a clean piece of cardboard last night, no drippage all.
I suppose it is possible that the dealer has a much better scanner than I do? Or that they erased the faults and they have yet to return?
