Hi guys! So I sent in my MacBook Pro 15" Retina late 2013 with the 2.6GHz i7, 16GB RAM and a 1TB SSD ( just in case that makes any difference) through an AASP to get the display replaced for delamination. I did also ask them to check it as it has been heating up significantly for a few years, just whether they could reapply the thermal paste etc. So today I got a call and they said that one of the sensors has failed on the MLB and that it will need the whole board to be replaced. I’m wondering whether this is something someone else has experienced before? I was thinking of getting a new MBP soon but this will completely set me back as I wouldn’t feel happy selling it if it had a defect. Thanks for any responses! James
