my wife was driving her kia and the timing belt went out, i know theres probly giong to be more damage to the engine, im afraid the machanic will have a field day with my pocket book, have any good advice?
there is not much you can do but have it repaired and hope that he wont over charge, it is a bit hard to know how much damage there will be, bent valves and may be valve guide damage as well.
