Lol dealership prob scammed Mazda for the Core $$$ job. Sounds like it just needed oil change and clean off the spark plugs and to make sure the fuse box's and terminals are all dry.

 

how does it seem it just needs oil, if there are no plugs in it and the motor wont turn off the flywheel, the Renesis is not made out of Titanium, most likely warped the rotor housing and will not let the rotor turn over, like its just wedged in there, ill find out for sure when i take it apart, if the motor is found to be fine then thats a whole different story, right now i need my car back.

 

thanks riwwp

 

good point from the other thread

still started

 

Of course, you can get any engine to sniff water a little at a time, but no engine or even compressor can take a full gulp of water without either breaking from excess pressure or warping from temperature change. Just getting electronics wet on a car is death. Anyone wanna prove me wrong?

i won't even spray water to clean engine on any car worth over $2000. I just took my 2002 Dodge Dakota for a "detail" and told them I didn't want engine cleaned for $15. I got "free" spray job with P0601 obdII code which means pcm dead. the pu still runs and exhaust smells clean, but the water destroyed my electonics "computer", and it's ready for trade soon.

Anyone spray engines with water and no trouble? yeah, I sprayed my 1997 Stratus with no trouble, and it still works fine. Why does the nice **** always crater?

 

talked to the dealership and they are going to get me a new clutch and engine mounts and will price match for me from another Mazda dealer, not sure if i can say who but its gonna save me over $600 parts and no labor, i needed to get this stuff done anyway
