You traded your car in whilst knowing the engine needed extensive work but yet you did not tell them... I'm sorry but I think that's on the limit of fraud and I certainly would not shout it on a public forum, particularly knowing that the new owner reads these pages.
I agree with that but if the dealer dosen't ask or even test drive the car what can they do? If the dealer dosen't check these things they have nothing to go on.

u maybe be right there but over here if a dealer buy the car from u but then later found that the engine is dead or have internal damage then the dealer could always ask to pay for the car repair but its rarely happen and hard to prove

Surely the dealer would have checked it over before accepting it as a trade in?...that would be like us going to buy a car without test driving it first or even looking at it!

OK, I don't think you'd shot the engine though TBH I think you'd shot the cat.
I wanted the symptoms for some research, not to worry.
