It Finally Happened...

mardi 7 octobre 2014

Last few days I've had a loss of power around 5k RPM. I have been a rotary owner for 10 years(I've owned 2 FCs and 2 RX-8s in that time). I have never had an engine fail or any serious problems in that time with any of my cars that I couldn't fix in my own garage. My 2008 with 52k miles, failed compression test today :sad:. The good news is they're covering it with warranty and I'm getting a new engine. From what I'm told I only have to pay for the spark plugs and wires because mine were "aftermarket" and they can't put them on due to not being OEM(mine were better). I originally thought it was the cat because it was glowing red when I got home from work last night, but from what they told me the cat is fine. I'm worried about that though, can the engine failing cause the cat to do that? Doesn't seem to make sense to me. Anyway that was my news today and as I've been a long time reader of this forum, I've never had a reason to really post. Any other advice or things I should look for once I get this new engine would be appreciated. Also, what exactly did they change in the "new" engines they're replacing the broken ones with?
