Sorry to hear about the trouble I've been there.

Thanks... at this point I just want a working car! Even if they fix the short-term issue... I'll still need to bring it back to verify whether or not it's consuming oil. Last time I saw the car a couple days back... it looked like half the engine was pulled out in order to replace the sprocket. I may hear back today whether or not this fixes the immediate problem. The main worry for me is that once you start ripping things apart and putting them back together... the car will be nothing but a headache from here on out.
