I got a list of what parts were ordered this time compared to the first time the engine blew. I'll list the parts below:

1st Repair:
-Short Block
-Gasket&seal set
-Oil change

2nd repair (parts that were ordered so far)
-camshaft
-pulley crankshaft
-gasket cylinder head
-spark plug
-spring valve/seal/rocker valve
-Oil pan
-cover assembly/chain
-water pump assembly
-thermo & gasket assembly
-Short Block

Obviously more extensive the second time around, but that's expected because the damage was a lot worse. Parts haven't come in to the dealer yet so still no word on when I will get my car back.

I'll put a disclaimer here that I'm not a mechanic and am at most a weekend DIY'er so I don't know much about engine terminology. Nonetheless feel free to share your thoughts!
So who is going to be making car payments through this time? You may want to contact SoA about the money you'll be out while your car is out of commission for however long it takes to get the car back to you in working order...
