Engine over-haul at 100,000 milage
 

I just want to know whether this is true?

I heard it from a friend who owns a rotary engine car too.. :/

What would an overhaul entail?

Taking apart a perfectly running motor?

Never heard of a rotary 'overhaul'.....

S

me neither, maybe just some false rumors :/

I was told that the engine needs to be overhaul, sumthin' to do with cleaning the internal parts :S

100,000 would be a good time for a Rebuild, perhaps ceramic APEX seal replacement as well :P, it's a good idea any way, but mainily IMO because core warrenty runs out then, why now start a new?

well if its still running perfectly fine, then why not wait till it does fail. there's really no point in fixing something that isn't broken.

this is correct. all rotaries have a self-destruct button at 100K miles and mazda requires you turn them in for a rebuilt one.


just thought i would toss in another false rumor since the one you stated is posted on here way too often.

I thought the self-destruct was 30,000 miles or 1,723 gallons of oil, whichever comes first.




OP, I could see people choosing to get their engine rebuilt at 100,000 miles, since it isn't covered under warranty at that point anyway, but only if they are doing to have it rebuilt for improvements. If you are just having it pulled apart to look at it, that's an expensive window show.

do you have an rx8 or not?
or are you getting one?
if you drive a Honda, I dont see the point of asking this.:eek:

100k is the perfect time to add forced induction.

I heard it from a friend who heard it from Jeremy Barnes, allegedly.

What do you mean btw please elaborate. They require it when the compression goes below a certain point. Series 1 (04-08) engine warranty has been extended to 8 years or 100,000 on the vehicle reguardless of the owner.

Chuck Norris rebuilds his MS 8 engine every 6,000 miles. MacGuyver schooled him in how to do a complete rebuild with a toothpick, pair of tweezers, and a rubber band.

You are now quoted in MY sigs on 2 different sites. The "gas is an expense...." is on my local VW site<--former life.

I want to know if you are true.

Yes, I just got it this month, so yeah, I'm a newbie on rotary engine :s

just wanna ask few opinions about this topic

woah..force induction??:sweatdrop

Why don't you try to clean it with Palmolive dish washing liquid? Also, I want to know are you true? And what is "milage"? Is it something French?

I'm not sure..maybe something to do with cleaning the internal parts ::crazy:

You need to tell your friend to Shut the fuck up, cuz he is full of shit, im gonna take a rotor and stick it up his ass.

Yeah, that's a good idea:wiggle:

True as in what? I'm still a newbie dude, so yeah, I don't know know much about rotary engine, so that's why I'm in this club to learn from the experienced :lol:

Milage? seriously you don't know? o.o google it

I know what mileage is but i don't know what milage is. Seriously, YOU need to google it. What is your native language?

okay, my mistake :s
