Thank you so much, Martin. They are saying that because I removed the satnav (years ago), their T4 stops at that point and cannot jump to the next area that needs to be checked.
Is there any credence to this?
The gobby service manager said they had to use another, generic test kit. "Wot I said, do you mean one that can diagnose all cars?"
"Yes, that's right" replied the gobshite.

I think in a logical way. What has changed in my car that could affect temperature? Thermostat. The new one may be faulty, or they may have bought a cheap one and to muddy the waters written down the known Rover part no. for the stat.

I wish I had just had new plugs done, oil change, MoT, plus one ignition coil.

I did tell the service manager a few home truths when I collected my car. He blushed, but was still spouting nonsense. However, I think he was genuinely shocked when, following my call to Simon, I phoned garage and told them I do NOT want them to change sensor, and not to do any further work.
