You are a clueless parts replacer...A v8 outperforms the sheep's v6 all day long and no turbos or super charger on the v8 to outperform the gutless v6. I have built many many hp v8 over the years all motor.
Hey OP....maybe @rat196426 can help you out with a new motor. Apparently he's an expert. #sorrynotsorry :)

Just got a text from the service advisor, $1850 to do a full tear down on the motor to find out what the issue was..

On the work order i was given for each cam phaser replacement, it stated " replaced all parts per handbook " I'm guessing that includes the bolts. Not sure if they really replaced it. Should I risk forking out the 1850 or just have my aftermarket warranty take care of it

That’s nuts, it’s great to see that the dealer you’ve be using reliably is trying to have Sex with your a n u s and not evening offering you a free lube first.

What happened with your extended warranty?

If your warranty is covering the motor replacement, I guess it doesn’t matter much except you’ll always be wandering if the tech did his job correctly or not.

Not sure what a “hand book” is. Regardless, there should be an itemized list of parts on the repair order. If you can post that we can see if they replaced the one time use bolts.
