Consumer Description

I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE TIMING CHAIN ON THE ENGINE AT 55310 MILES FOR A COST OF $2,372.28. NOW THE OIL LIGHT IS ON AND I HAVE A KNOCKING IN THE ENGINE DO TO OIL SLUDGE . I HAVE HAD TWO MECHANICS TELL ME THAT THE ENGINE NEEDS TO BE EITHER REPLACED WITH A USED ENGINE(WHICH WILL RESULT IN THE SAME PROBLEM AT A COST OF $3,000) REPLACE THE ENGINE WITH A JASPER ENGINE (SUPPOSEDLY HAS ENGINE ENGINEERING PROBLEM RESOLVED AT A COST OF $6,000) OR A CRANK SHAFT AND BEARING JOB AT A COST OF $3,000 WHICH WILL STILL RESULT IN THE SAME PROBLEM DOWN THE LINE. *JB
