The Damage

Looks like fixing the car is going to cost me. Apparently the coolant temperature sensor died, which caused coolant to get into the electronic harness and the electronic control panel and now all three need to be replaced. I asked how this could happen that quickly since the light just came on yesterday. The reason is apparently that the light is because of the control module, and the coolant sensor probably has been broken for a while. There's apparently no warning if the coolant sensor dies. I mentioned that seemed like a design flaw, but the guy didn't really care. Total cost is going to be like 3.5k (My Heart! This is the big one! Elizabeth, I'm comin' to join you!). And it gets better. They have to special order one of the parts from Germany. So it won't even be fixed until sometime next week at the earliest. *sigh*
