I wish I had a tan interior. Why did they have to take it to another shop, unless they ****ed something up. I would be pissed if I were you, its taken them longer than it should have.

163000 isnt gonna run like new, bearing are gonna be wore, ring, stress factors, seals. But I wish you the best, but just dont think its gonna be brand new and beat it 24/7

Yeah man, you should have at least had them put new rings in there while they were at it. Seems sorta like beating a dead horse.

Haha well guess what? They are.Heres why. I called the guy today and he said he got the car back from other shop but that other shop still had the gasket? He also said that other guy at the shop said he could find nothing wrong with the valves or headgasket and have no idea why it could be smoking.Yet if i remember he said he put whole new set of valves in it.He also asked me if I wanted him to change the piston rings and something else I forgot on why it could be smoking and of course I said go at it.....How long would it take to change them?He also said guy from other shop should be bringing back the gasket tomorrow.

You should take the time to learn what's being done to your car, since you're not doing it yourself you could at least research what's happening to that janky KA. Learn and stuff, it's cool.
