Default I had a similar situation: maybe not the T-stat job, but the TB job...

something like 11k after my TB job, the tensioner wheel broke...maybe it's not the thermostat job that caused this, but the parts used to replace your TB when you had that job done...I'm just sayin'...Good luck<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/allroad/msgs/175515.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/allroad/msgs/175515.phtml</a</li></ul>

Default No doubt that could be the situation.

Occam's razor (sometimes spelled Ockham's razor) is a principle attributed to the 14th-century English logician and Franciscan friar William of Ockham. The principle states that the explanation of any phenomenon should make as few assumptions as possible, eliminating those that make no difference in the observable predictions of the explanatory hypothesis or theory. The principle is often expressed in Latin as the lex parsimoniae ("law of parsimony" or "law of succinctness"): "entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter necessitatem", or "entities should not be multiplied beyond necessity".

This is often paraphrased as "All other things being equal, the simplest solution is the best." In other words, when multiple competing theories are equal in other respects, the principle recommends selecting the theory that introduces the fewest assumptions and postulates the fewest entities. It is in this sense that Occam's razor is usually understood.
