As soon as it would stop raining these would go away.
Drains were cleaned with weed wack wire and compressor, dealer confirmed all drain lines were clear at time of their water test, but they still said the cassette must be cracked which is bs because i taped up the sunroof before to test if this was the problem area and it wasn't.
For the harness they did not replace the whole harness but the corroded wires which they did show to me on the back of the fuse box. This is what is listed on the work order:
S1 3 MCH REMOVE/REPLACE CABLE CONNECTORS 61-13-8-353-746 36.30 * 0.0* T
S1 4 MCH REMOVE/REPLACE SHRINKING HOSE 61-13-1-379-833 56.20 * 0.0* T
S1 5 MCH REMOVE/REPLACE CABLE TIES 61-13-1-367-599 13.44 * 0.0* T
S1 6 MCH ADD'L LABOR OP WIRING REPAIR Existing 3.0*
And trust me Im a detail guy its just Iv had a long bad day and to top it off I go to pick up my car and some morons screwed up my car more then when i brought it in.
So im not running to the lawyer but im wanted to see if anyone else had the same experience where the dealer returns the car with a check engine light and it was brought in in perfect condition. I mean come on I bring it in with a water leak problem and they tell me the valvetronic system is going.

Can't comment about your specific technical issue / situation
What I can tell you is that I have taken my running (=NO CEL lights, NO Issues) car(s) to the dealer for recall work
in two occasions and each time they "found" issues that were not there before, that just "appeared", threw CEL lights and they called me back with suggested "required" work ($$$).
In both cases, I declined the "required" work, took the car(s) out, troubleshooted the CEL (=CLEARED) with no issues afterwards.
I'm not implying bad intention, my perception in both cases was that they just did the recall work, connected the car / updated software and when the CEL light showed up, they just recommended work without troubleshooting what it was or if that was true issues (as that would have been "free" diagnostic).
Note the recall paperwork had indeed a disclaimer about this (e.g. any diagnostic will be charged).
Just my 5 cents.
