Hi. I’m new here but urgently need some advice from fellow experienced members.
The car is Freelander 1.8i 2005. 18K type. The story is that there was water in cylinder 4 so HG decided to be replaced. When mechanic opened the head he somehow turned camshaft so cylinder liners moved up. He then opened the oil try and fixed the all cylinders to place. Then done the head and fixed it back. The cam belt was removed too. When engine started it was knocking noises as from hydraulic lifters or valves. When the car on test-drive reached high speed (RPM) the engine seized. Now the camshaft is rotating but both upper shafts not. What could be the cause of it and what possible damage could have been done to the engine?
Many Thanks in advance
