A failed thermostat very well could cause a no start. Especially if they had the codes to back up the diagnosis I wouldn't doubt the fault.
Otherwise iced throttle body, carbon buildup, or HPFP.
Thermostat repair being the cheapest of the fixes I wouldn't drive them to chase more expensive components if they don't need to.

Carbon blasted also for the intake gasket. Or maybe they removed the intake to get to the water pipe better.

Both fit N14 engine, but there was a split year. Look below for the split on 2009 production. Then 13537591623 fits some of N14 ( end half ) and then fits some N18.
13537528351 up to 5/2009
13537591623 from 5/2009+

Yep and Nope....
Last straw was oil being blown into engine harness from faulty (updated) breather bits. This was at 97,000 miles, traded it off for a '13 Clubman off dealer lot.
Condensation freezes in air volume metering unit, basically what's called throttle body in this engine. HPFP will die if run even close to empty so try not to do that but I'd think if it's showing fault it'd leave an error code behind as evidence.
Same with Oxygen sensors.
