[QUOTE="Old-Raptor-guy, post: 1949968, member: 52062"] They should at least offer the customer the option of paying out of pocket. But to answer your question........ It is their training, I had the same training and honestly after leaving the dealer 12 years ago it has hurt me a few times and I am still learning daily. The factory training and information is second to none as far as diagnostics go. If the technician can mentally understand the system they should be able to pinpoint the failed part, the manufacturer only wants to pay for failed parts and in a case like this is willing to take the chance that the other phasers will last to the end of warranty (when their responsibility ends) This isn't a bad mind set for a technician as no one wants to just throw parts at a problem. BUT it has its downsides especially in cases like this. I have to constantly tell my technicians to evaluate the situation and vehicle, for complete repairs. [/QUOTE]
