Mechanic said this:
Repair valve 'langgar' / hit piston, broke it, and the rest hit the cylinder head, thus needs repairing? He said it is not overhauling. Would overhauling cost less?
That is still a mystery, to me. He said the above. Said many valves were broken, due to the timing chain being problematic. Then piston also broken la apa la. If I remember correctly car has clocked 100k++ mileage but not yet 200k. My friend's fault at first for not doing a major service, totally forgot.

100k km for timing chain fail is awfully horrible. BUT, I'm not sure whether Civic FD Malaysia suffer pre-mature timing chain problems.

If the timing were off when engine running, the piston and valve will be damaged as they come into contact. Ask for a picture of the mentioned damage, to see whether they conned you, or even better, visit the workshop. They should already open up the engine to inspect all those damage
