sounds like every time ive let someone else work on my car.....

sorry to hear that. cre is absolutely right. Though if you are having the work done by a mechanic/shop there isnt much you can do besides tell them how stupid they are and that they should try ACTUALLY doing the job right.

If it wasnt for the warranty i would say switch shops.

good luck!

This is where my motor was built. They do good work I guess just not on imports. Also they said everything was good and no pitting or warpage. Then they ordered a set of arp studs and a head gasket from a place that Specialize in import cars.
