Default Please look this over for me!!

Well when Audi replaced my timing belt, they didn't install it correctly and it broke. So now they are responsible for fixing it. I have just recieved an email with the following items being fixed:

Part: 058109601C :VALVE (Intake valves)

Part: 058109611E :VALVE (Exhaust valves)

Part: 06B109119A :TOOTH BELT (timing belt)

Part: 06B109243D :ROLLER (timing belt tensioner)

Part: 037121687 :WASHER

Part: 058129717D :GASKET

Part: 06A253039E :GASKET

Part: 058198025A :GASKET SET

Part: 058103383M :GASKET

Part: 058198217 :GASKET SET

Part: 06A103385A :SCREW

Part: 06A103493BD :HOSE

Are there any other items that aren't listed that should be replaced as well? I just want to make sure I'm not going to run into anymore trouble with my car because of this.

did they just do the timing belt? If they didn't take care of the waterpump and thermostat, bitch at them until they do. Otherwise, that list looks complete to me.

forgot to mention that the reason on why it went there to begin with was because of the water pump, so yes the water pump was changed... I'll have to ask about the thermostat.

Bent valves sound right. I would inquire about any damage to the pistons where they contacted the valves.

Well, I had it towed to VW since it's only about 5 miles from my house when it broke... and they said the timing belt was torn to shreds. So they called Audi, which is about 65 miles away and they sent a tow truck to come pick up the car... I haven't seen it since... and that was Monday of last week.
