OK DUDE... First of all, edit that friggin post and use some punctuation.

This can be verrrryyy bad... If you hit the hole hard enough you may have cracked your block. When you inspect the engine, do you notice anything?

I'd see if you have any codes on that thing... but theres no doubt your looking at some big costs here.

If he cracked the block oil would be all over the place. We need more info

Def more info needed or an update from the mechanic, since your car has been there a week.

Rocan

not necessarily, could be a hairline crack, and the oil may not be visible.

You could go after the city or county, to fix your vehicle, for not taking care of the road. Since if they HAD maintained the road you wouldn't have smashed your car into a pot hole that wouldn't have been there!

this only works if you have evidence that the city has been notified numerous times about the pothole and a decent amount of time has gone by for them to fix it and they didn't.

yeah... just get a few friends to hit it also!
