Electrical problem
2001 Buick Lesabre 100+ miles

started getting 'tire pressure low' sensor readings, then oil is low then fuel tank said full when empty, and chk engine light came on and everthing seems ok- Repair shop wants to change the thermostat, fuel sending unit and gas cap for about 600 dollars. Someone mentioned that the sensors may be needing to be reset due to reaching 100k and service indicated-

Check engine light is on !!
need to have it scanned
codes will pin point the trouble area and help in direction where and how to start the diagnoses
if u have a code saying that engine not reaching operating temp like code p0125 than I would suspect a bad thermostat and will advice u on replacing it

also you can have another shop take a look at it for you
good luck
