Burlington VW Dealership messed up horribly during oil change

Oil fill spot metal was pushed inside the engine, was touching the camshaft.

I always check up their work after n had a bit of a rattle during drive, turned around but service dept was closed so.

Was able to pull the piece out. Is it broken in pieces? Is there pieces inside my engine?

Can someone look at this part n look at ur oil fill spot and compare? Contacting vw usa n dealer first thing tmrw ImageUploadedByTapatalk1337385324.096363.jpg



Update: burlington did first camshaft repair incorrectly - bent valve rocker

Update: 1 week after 2nd camshaft car broke down: cause broken camshaft. Tune was discovered - dealer blames the tune.

Update: katie fox is contacted by xzt123 - (golfmk6 member) - investigation starts.

Update: VWoA agreed to put in remanufactured head -

Update: cylinder head is put in incorrectly "out of time" - engine done.

update: 7/12/12- Vehicle being towed to Hamilton VW to get a new engine put in, paid by i dunno whom but not me.. VWoa or Burlington VW. Dont care at this point.

Update: 7/18/12 - new engine in - car runs great. Kudos to hamilton vw, highly recommended

Hard to tell from that pic, but I would highly recommend if that part looks damaged not to drive the car.

You might not have as strong of a case since you removed it.
