My 400D Is Back, But Uncertainty Looms

So I got my 400D back from Canon Service Center this morning. I was able to talk to the engineer who diagnosed my camera, and after running more tests, it turns out that my shutter mechanism is beginning to fail. What's worse is that the shutter actuation count is only around 14000, very far from the guaranteed 40000 clicks.

Now I have two weeks to fully test my camera to see if I need a new shutter mechanism. Luckily it's not as expensive as I thought it would be, but it's still a pain to shell out extra dough if ever. Hopefully because of this I can force myself to shoot more and go back to the basics of photography.
