Re: Car died after 90K maintenance performed 900 92

Crankshafts don't break.

It reads as if they didn't install the timing belt properly and the belt came off, causing the valves and the pistons to collide. Bent valves means either a new head or a repair job. Some of us here know from another posters experience this is not an easy thing to do.

The head is a three piece affair, with all sections glued and bolted together. Complete replacement is preferable.

Please get more details.
