My car was making an odd noise at first, then running slightly hot.
As to the first guy explaining why I needed a new engine no he never really did but when I picked it up it sounded like there were bolts flying around under the hood.
Apparently it seized and died, ironically at the same gas station where I'd later get creamed by the Ford truck. Since Chris never did any tear down on the car I only have first guys word that i need a new engine and from what I heard picking up the car.
I'm sorry we're one day shy of 10 months. I wrote the check on the 15th.

Nine (9) months, ten (10) months, all too long for something like this to go on
Sounds like it overheated and was ran hot. My "guess" and that's all it is, based upon the information provided, would be that you're hearing bearing noise. Junk, you wanna jump in here?
Just because a bearing or bearings are fried, doesn't mean you necessarily need a "new engine."
Have someone drop the pan and take a look. Any engine shop or full service repair facility can do that. Make sure you are THERE when they pull it apart.
I know the 7 day/flexible hours routine. I'm there myself
But sometimes, you just have to make time.
And I'd stay away from that gas station...there's bad mojo flyin' 'round there
