Corporations like to massage the information that gets released, so the only want it to come from their PR people.

^ Sorry :/
And 14 days ago John said id be in at latest tomorrow (25th) so we shall see... I am getting relatively sick of Mazda. It really does amaze me how slow they are. I'll tell you guys tomorrow if it came in or not. |

To do a remove/rebuild/install would take some advance planning and I'd have to start thursday at noon to have it back together saturday night so the owner could head home sunday. Such an owner would also have to pay for all their own parts. |
^ I can understand your frustration with the delay and having to rent a car. Still, if it were my 8, I'd be happy I had one of the good dealerships with a good mechanic who seems to know what he's doing.

^ well yes im infact "cursing" Mazda as a company and not the particular dealership I go to. I haven't called Mazda yet but I will soon and we will see... erg...
|
Just to keep you guys up to date, John from mazada called me today and said the engine had just been shipped and should be in by this thursday or friday. Bleh.. but I'm glad it's at least been shipped.
|
^ Good luck and keep us updated on the outcome.
|

That's correct...but the average person can't tell the difference between silver paint and new bare cast aluminum just from a visual inspection once the engine is installed.

Two days ago my engine failed the dealer's compression test so we will see how well my "new" engine works. The service rep at the Mazda dealership in Orlando said the engine should be here by the end of this week or early next week so I have a relatively small turn around time, thank god.
It's stupid though how the new engine is covered under warranty, however I still have to pay for new motor mounts (300 some odd) and and upgraded starter per Corporate Mazda's request. |
