How did he have a code for years? Did it never get inspected?
The shop passes if it's only 1 code/not something important. Thermostat is a $15 part but $400+ in labor.

Same shop said the vibration is from an engine mount being 'disintegrated' but I put it up on stands and looked at the 2 on the underside front/rear of the trans and they look fine and the one on the passenger rail looks fine. One on the driver rail is under a bunch of stuff and can only see a small amount of it but it looks OK from what I see as well.
