Warranty information clarification
Today I got a print-out of the warranty information on the RX-8 I purchased:
I was mainly curious about the 4206F recall. I noticed on my report it has a lot of 4206F information. One says rental vehicle, PCM reprogram, another says Cust. Fuel Re (what is that?), and Cust. Vehicle.
I just want to clarify what each of those are. I know that for the recall Mazda did a compression check and test of the motor, and if you failed you got a new one. So I'm curious as to what all that means.. did I get a new motor? or was the car fine?
Also, what would be "converter?"

These typically don't make much sense. I had my buddy print one of these out for me and half the crap I have had done at the dealer is not on there. I'm not sure what the 4206F is.

PCM reprogram being flashing ECU.

When you left your car, you got a free rental. They usually did a fillup and a wash before you picked it up.
They made a big thing of "White glove treatment," with bad engines replaced with remanufactured (Ha!) rather than letting the dealers dig into the innards.
