İf you can afford a new car you should have let the garage get the parts.
I can afford a new car if needed. Should I take my £600 Lexus to the main dealer for its cambelt service?
If I get a garage to work on one of my cars, I supply the parts myself so that I know exactly what parts are being used. Some routinely fit cheap crap, others only fit high quality stuff. Even if you ask, they might lie. I get them to leave all the old stuff in a box in the boot too.
OP were the parts you supplied of good quality? What brand were they? Even if the garage try and claim it was your fault you'll have a better argument against it if you supplied an SKF kit, rather than a Ridex one, for example.
