I got caught on a flooded street, hydrolocked the engine.

USAA has been good, they get on claims very fast. This problem was a dealership that failed to do their due diligence and look up the block number and check the age of the engine. Hell when I first LOOKED at the engine I knew it was older than a 16. I am not going live with a 13 engine that is known to be a problem. Esp. since the same facility that said it was a 16 also claims the engine only has 38k on it- I don't believe them.

I wish that this was a 16 engine because this engine is great. The fuel trims are spot on, AFR is great, oil pressure is better than the old engine and the butt dyno says it has more power. But I know a main bearing in there is lurking... waiting to spin.
