CEL - Fix or Sell. Columbus OH, Red RX8

mercredi 3 juin 2015

Hello Everyone,

This is a wonderful forum with lots of useful information and has been helpful to diagnose and fix small issues.

I live in Columbus, OH and I bought my car used in Feb 2013 for 8,700$. It has been a great car and a lot of fun.

I got a flashing CEL last week and got it towed to byers mazda. They say the engine has lost compression and needs to be fixed (9,000$+ approx). They say no temporary fix is possible.

I got a compression test done a couple of months back and these are the numbers.

Rotor1: 6.2, 6.2, 6.4 at 250 rpm
Rotor2: 7.1, 6.9, 6.7 at 250 rpm

I cannot spend over 1000-1500$ on the car at this point and I am looking for guidance.

I am also open to offers on the car - 75,000 miles. Stock 2005 RX8 Sport with 6MT. Accident free. 3,000$ I think is a reasonable price for it.

Thanks in advance !!
