Checking up on repairs
$450 later for new lower radiator hose replacement and coolant flush at the dealer. Told me they only changed one of the hoses because that's what I requested. "How could I request only one hose replacement if I didn't know there were two" I said. So he entered into my records the miscommunication on their part. Went out to leave, so I checked the degas bottle. Coolant way below the the lower line and tube, so I made them add more to the cold fill line. Tried to give me that line that it will fill higher when it cools, cuz there's always air in it. I told them I always read FTE for tips on engine maintenance. "Oh, the internet huh"?
Got home and had to add a bit more coolant. Hope all air is out and not have any problems later.
Oh, and they gave me a "free" hat with their logo on it. Morning started out great there, and opening my garage door and finding a skunk in there. ha!

When I had mine flushed it too about another quart or so over a few days.
They never get all the air out.
Shame that you need to recheck stuff but you do.
Be sure to do a nitrite test as well.
