I don't think that u should feel like that. I was mad at first but now its just life. When they designed this car they had good intentions I'm sure. I think the problem is that we're just not used to this type of design. everything has it's flaws. Just look at what i'm going through as something...

so i guess its time to get the head worked on.

I haven't taken the head off to see yet. As for the oil thing that bullsh** never heard of anything like that

its a chain driven motor so my buddy told me i can't do it like i do a belt motor. it only runs when i keep my foot on the gas. it won't start on it's on.

Just like the title said, my timing jumped. I've heard that we dont have an interference motor and then i heard we do. Which one is it? I know 2.3's are jumping thanks to a bad design from mazda( thanks Jay) I'm basically trying to prepare myself for what might be wrong with my car. trying to...

yea

I haven't gotten it back yet so i'm hoping the timing didn't jump that bad. maybe i'll get away with just tryin to replace the head.

I didn't have any time i work two jobs now so i was gonna take it when i could i figured that if i keep oil in it and take it easy it would be alright. Too late for excuses though.

So pretty much don't even waste the time on trying another dealership

no not at all. I'd be lying if I said that haven't gotten in it but I always followed the cool down procedures, changed the oil when needed, and kept the right amount of fluids in it.

Not at all

It might be a problem. This is my first turbo car and my first mazda. Lil things like that I would ask my buddies and they would say don't worry about it. I'll just ask on here from now on because most of the people on here know what they are talking about

Won't they just pull up that I've been to another dealer forthis reason and tell me no?

I don't know I have to call them when I get off of work. This is making me wanna trade my ****** car in and get something else.

Well today was the day. Mazda isn't going to cover my problem they say that my car was "abused" so they arenlt taking part in any of the repairs. Don't know what to do besides start working on it.

ok so my dealership called me today. they are saying that my car is modified so they aren't going to warranty it. They say that there is an oil leak externally on the turbo. he says it looks like the motor was ran with no oil then someone put oil in(didn't happen the turbo has been smoking so i...

Its both the timing prob happened because of low oil pressure due to the turbo sucking up to much oil I believe(someone correct me if I'm wrong)

only thing i have is the powertrain and i hope that helps me out

ok so heres the update....SHE'S DONE!!!!!! from what it sounds like and what my friend told she jumped timing. Stupid F****** Mazda used a tapered plug instead of treaded bolt on the crank. which means it can slide out over time. they have a fix for it but i dont know if my f****** dealer is...
