Hey everybody, I think I'm getting screwed by my insurance company and
I'd like a 2nd or 3rd opinion. I recently T-boned a mustang that ran a
red light (slow speed, neighborhood thankfully) and had some damage to
the front end of my civic. After making the repairs, the insurance
company brought my civic back, but with a check engine light. The
Honda dealership says it was a bad 02 sensor, and that my manifold is
cracked.

My question is, is this possibly related to the accident? I'd rather
have insurance pay for it than me if at all possible.

Thanks,

Jude

in accidents, they usually shatter, not crack. your kind of manifold
usually cracks on its own, so that's probably the situation with you.
