When sleeves drop in that matter, it is definitely the installers fault. What happened was they were put in on a slight angle and then surfaced flat. Once the motor had some running time, the sleeves straightened out (settled), thus making them drop only on one side. I hope they learn from their errors but it could happen again on the reinstall.

Thats good that they are fixing it for free. Good luck man

Can sleeves still drop or shift after 12000 miles?

Can adding horsepower (80-150 hp) to same 12000 mile motor cause sleeves to drop or shift?

I know it sucks having your car down, but at least you didn't have to pay to have it resleeved.
