2 months ago i had an incident with my A4 (engine BFB 1.8T) in a flooded road, and i hydrolocked the engine.

I took it to an AUDI authorised garage, where they cleared and flushed the engine with chemicals. They delivered the car back to me saying that the engine was fine.

1 month after while i was driving i heard a noise coming from the engine and i immediately stopped the car.

The engine block cracked!

The garage claims no responsibility...

Can someone tell me why this happenned 2 months after i hydrolocked the engine?

It's possible that when it hydrolocked it created a lot of stress on your block and put a hairline crack in it that didn't release til later. Where is the block cracked?
