I am amazed that Arthur doesn't know what happened. I'd have either popped in to the dealership and talked to the actual technician and got answers, or at least got them on the phone. In my experience you'll learn a lot more from the mechanic than the service manager. Hopefully we'll find out what happened soon enough. It must have been some sort of track damage as I can't see an insurance company shelling out that kind of money if they didn't have to. I'd love to know what it was. If a rock or a stick did fracture an oil line, you'd think the red lights would come up before major damage occurred.
All I can imagine is that the turbo ran dry and suffered a catastrophic failure sending bits into the engine... The noise sounded like major engine failure, so surely it mush have ingested something. If it was purely an issue with engine internals you'd think it would have been a warranty job as its hard to imagine how that could be environmental, unless it was water ingress..
