Going down that slippery slope...PLEASE HELP!!!
I dropped off my case to a reputable Porsche shop for machine work for my case. I replaced three oil squirter's but failed to apply lock tite to all three and the first attempt to peen one down I inadvertently removed to much aluminum while peening due to sharp edges of the round chisel. After removing the squirter for the second time I didn't have enough aluminum to peen since the squirter set higher than the surface area. I figured the machine shop would basically drill down further to bring the squirter further down allowing enough surface area to peen in place (my recommendation). Well today I looked at the results and I was speechless. The machine shop inserted a metal sleeve and capped it with a set screw incasing the oil squirter. And to top it off they removed 2 perfectly good oil squirter's and completed the same procedures. It looks like crap for one and I don't know how the expansion rate between the steel sleeve and the aluminum case wil react. I even passed along the info on how it should be done and provided the page from Porsche on the steps to remove and install a new oil squirter. What are my options? I believe the sleeve was inserted by drilling a bigger hole. Is this a proven fix? I figured the case needs to be sent to someone that understands our 3.2 engines. Any help would be appreciated. I willing to ship the case and have it done right. And last but not least what obligations do they have to make it right. Please help.
