Turbo Is Gone....

....I cant beleive all the bad luck you guys are having. Mazda gave me a new motor when I threw a rod at 29k miles with my test pipe installed, they replaced my rear end with CAI, CBE, and MM and BOV installed. And now they are giving me a new turbo and transmission with all parts still on my car (CAI, catless DP, exhaust, FMIC, BOV, MM ....basiclly all the bolt ons)
 
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.
 
well that's what I am saying.
If you hadn't gone through the whole Mazda NA part already that is what you should have done because Moss Magnuson clearly would have covered you for warranty default over a motor mount and bald tires (maybe your tires are bald because your cheap they don't know) now your kind of screwed sadly. I worked for a dealership for a long time I know how to play that game. A different dealership tried not to warranty my trans because my truck was dirty and they said I was off-roading it but it was because I lived in a new subdivision so there was dirt and dust everywhere which turns to mud in rain go figure. Well I fought the hell out of that one and got a new trans then 5k miles later it shot out again and at that point I had an exhaust on it so they said that was the cause and I fought and won again, turned out dumbshits didn't flush the cooler so there was still burnt fluid in it.

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

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 kept putting oil in until my next change)

If you knew it was leaking why did you not do something about it then instead of waiting and putting in more oil? Just a question.

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.
 
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.

Holy mother of run-on sentences! You must be busy if you don't have the time to punctuate.

.....yea with all thats happened I'm going ahead and purchasing the extended warantee from them also. I figure why not if they'll fix the car with all my mods on!

...it went in initially for the smoking issue, so they are giving me a new turbo. while I was there I mentioned that the tranny would throw itself out of second gear durring 99% of downshifts if I didnt manually hold it in. but i didnt think anything would come of it since the car has 40k miles and transmission/ clutch is a wear and tear item. well a couple hours later that day they called me to inform me that I had been approved for a new transmission under warantee as well.
