I just recently got my rx 8 last month not well with cars i didnt know this guy was hiding somthing about the car i got the 2004 rx8 for $3500 and started driving it to town and smelt hot check the engine full water full oil so i drive it more stalls at the light but automatic took to the shop first they say the rotary seals are bad now they say new heads and want to charge me $4000 what do you guys think

 

Tell Them to go **** them selves and goto a shop that "Rebuilds Rotary" engine. If they are saying the "heads" are bad? you know they don't know what there doing.

 

And where exactly are you located?

 

Im in alabama

 

In my area people arent familiar with rotary unless i go 3hours south

 

You have like 3 options

Go to a well known rotary shop

Take it to the dealer and they will charge alot!

Take the car apart and send the block to get it rebuilt.

 

Lmao "heads are bad" run as fast as you can they have no clue. If the over flow tank if full to the top it's probably dumping coolant and that is what your smelling. I can't fill mine past 3/4 or it will dump coolant this could be your case.

Edit
I noticed you said it's stalling but you didn't say your having trouble starting it. The hot smell might be a separate problem from the stalling. Check what I posted above and then check your CAT could be clogged is so check why it clogged ie. Failing ignition if the CAT is not clogged start with the ignition ether way if you don't have hot start problems your engine might be ok but if it is the CAT or ignition or both don't drive it till you fix it you engine won't last long with ether failing.

 

my rx8starts great but going to town it gets hot with full coolant

 

Check your fans!! One of them might be burnt out
