There have been 7 supplements on this car. its been 3 months the body shop keeps finding more damage. also its nearly done, i really dont have faith in the car any more. i know teh bodyshop wher ei have it is really good and do a great job, but my problem really lies with the engine. because it is a boxer engine it took a hit. first the insurance claimed no engine damage.

but as the car was getting repaired they found that the valve cover was cracked, timing belt was damaged (i believe it might have even skipped a tooth or two) and it had low oil because some of the while spilled out because the oil filler tube broke off (completely on other side of engine) and a plastic T-coupler broke on the side it was hit. and oil leaked/spit out.

i really really love my car, but its realy starting to piss me off. how do i know there isnt gonna be more damage that wasnt found while it was getting repaired.

I need info on how to check engine for internal damage with out taking it appart.

i know compression check and cut open oil filter. is there anything else i can do.
