Advised me that the vehicle lost compression and the Pistons will have to be replaced and the engine rebuilt.
The positive thing was that they have all parts in stock and it's just to schedule the work which will take about a week but based on backlog it looking more like two weeks.
He said he will organize a courtesy car from Monday (not holding meh breath on that one) for the period out. Just glad is weeks and not months

Sorry to hear that man. Please keep us updated on the root cause. What caused the engine to loose compression faulty pistons ? a leak somewhere, a dead water pump or tensioner etc.
As for all guys who have gotten new mechs, I don't think the part you get is new per say but re manufactured. I read that somewhere but can't find links sorry. I would be interested to know the ones that were changed did they last.. Chime in guys.
