Beautifully done. I am glad to see the person that did your repairs does more then just find a code and replace a part. I do know sadly it can add up and others think that doing what they did is a waste of time AKA money. But I am sorry Doing what they did made sure it was repaired and not just toss parts at it...
About CEL and Stored codes... The problem is there can be stored codes that may and or may not come up. I think in most cases it would be wrong to jump on a code that isn't at fault for a CEL when the code that is stored may really only be there off the fault of another issue. CEL has run cycles and or other computer set parameters to set a CEL. There are some people that would want to take your money and say that xyz is wrong and lets change out this part because you will only come back in the next week or month for another CEL anyway... In some cases that isn't true...
Looking over the Video I have tried to convey just how they did the repair as to what others should do looking for a system fault before they go and toss loads of parts at a car... To me the person that did your repair, appears to care about the work they do, Wants to make the cars owner happy about the end result. I am not sure about the Pending codes or back history of codes from an old issue. It could be the person that did the repairs feels it might be related to the repair just done and figures it needs some more time to clear up.. About doing normal tune up. In some cases people wait and that can make other issues with the car. If a car manual says xyz should be done every so many miles I would do it just to keep the car happy... When the car starts to get unhappy it may not always show us. By the time it does it could be costly to repair in my thought in the matter...
Glad they were able to repair the problem with Real world work and not just tossing loads of parts to find out that isn't the problem. Sure the Scanner they are using can't be bought by just the normal home owner, well they could but I just mean in terms of cost... Paying 3 or 4k for a scanner and they use it the way it was intended kind of tells me they care about what they are doing and must do it for a living to have good equipment...
Thank you for sharing Hope the other problems you are having is solved soon..
