    Hi

    My ford Smax 2017 2l Desiel engine wasn't getting up to temperature, and as I suspected the thermostat is knackered.

    The ford dealer is charging me 350 for the part alone.

    I think I'm being robbed, the most expensive part I can see here is 128

    Any thoughts on it? I don't mind paying for what things are worth but I hate being taken for a mug.

    Thanks

    edit: update: Fatalism set in and I approved the work to go ahead. The dealer said they'd have another look at that price and try to do me a favor on it. I guess it's the price I pay for going to the dealer...
