I don't get the "solution". Its not too terrible to replace the AOS. You do kinda cut up your hand a little on that top engine bay area, but if it fails at most every 20k its not like the end of the world. IIRC rock auto had it for like $40 or something; so it wasn't really expensive either.
Yeah, I don`t get it either. I`ve read somewhere here that the original AOS lasts much longer than the aftermarket ones. The genuine units sell for around $100 on ebay. My car I think has the original and has 100k in it. I put 100k miles in our family car in about 10 years, and this is a fun car for the weekends for many of us, so what`s the big deal?
