Hmmmm,
Kinda harsh eh? A lot of the "willy nilly" parts replacement suggestions you see here are based on people's experiences with the same problem on their own cars. Most of the information I have found on the forums is quite accurate. When 100+ people have had the same problem and a single part was the culprit in 97 of the cases Im going to replace that part regardless of having a correct "diagnosis" or not. Especially when that part has a high failure rate and is cheap.
Thats the whole point of a message board like this to share experiences. Otherwise you have all the information you need with your shop manuals and diagnostic equipment. If you enjoy spending all of your time "diagnosing" by all means do so. Some of us enjoy spending our time driving our cars
