[s-cars] Timing Belt - Day 2

[Fred Munro]

You may find the s-belt took out the t-belt; it's not unknown for that to
happen. Good luck with your car!

Thanks to all for the advice on my shredded timing belt. I visited the
dealer unannounced this morning. The service writer was non-committal on
fault, but we went out and looked at the engine. The t-belt is shredded. It
appears that the t-belt took out the serp belt. We pulled the valve cover
and found 6-8 valves down and bent. They are pulling the head today to take
a look. I spoke to Greg Hoffman , the service manager and was told, "We are
going to fix your car, but I want to figure out what happened first." They
sent me off with a late-model A4 loaner.

I figure I should call the General Manager and let him know what the service
manager told me and that I expect Phil Long to pay for the repair. Does that
sound right? Is there anything else I should do?
