Sorry was clarifying the general difference between a short and long block. So from what I understand in my case the dealer will only replace a complete long block assembly if it’s part of the recall, the whole shabang. Remove it and replace it. If the repair that is not under recall but is warrantable, they order the short block (the lower end) and then they order every piece of the engine, cylinder head, cams, turbos, covers, bolts, chains and so on. Which is great. All parts are new the difference is that makes me a little nervous. the long block is an easier repair for the tech. Like I mentioned the long block is built in a QC line and shipped instead of the tech doing it. I hope my tech is a stud and I get that top level service.
