Well that was unexpected.Said looks like the car skipped timing, no compression on any of the cylinders.*Luckily* I purchased an extended warranty and it should be covered, but they want the engine torn down to confirm the diagnosis before approving the claim.

Yea pretty fucked up, I hope the warranty doesn't find any excuse not to cover it (it says timing chain/belt, cylinder head are covered under the powertrain)
But they will not approve the claim until they tear it down, which cost $270 out of my pocket.

Trade it in on a Lexus or if you can't afford a Toyota or Honda. VW still rated shit in Consumer Reports.

I love that VW, it's turbo , 6 speed and loads of fun.
But probable timing tensioner failure out of the blue that bent every valve not cool. Thank god for the warranty.

10yr/100,000 on the powertrain I believe
All the generic foreign cars like this Hyundai, your corolla/camery, Honda are all the same to me. Nothing real special.

I like fun cars with personality like mine, even though the top end is wrecked

So when do you get the final news and what has to be done and how much?
Oh how simple cars used to be, my first car a used 1965 Mustang, my 1978 Chevy C-10 straight 6 I could practically sit inside the engine compartment, a trip to the parts store and you were all set.
