Well, the Parts Service Manager told me that my new Motor was replaced by Mazda, bc she still is under Warranty...BUT i'll have to pay labor and other charges....


So all in all, i'll prob be spending 1k, or so.
But, i'm not complaining too much, I am getting a new Motor
Did the computer have codes saying the VDI was bad? Or, was it replaced because the dealer didn't know what he was doing and was throwing parts at the engine in an attempt to repair it? If it was the latter reason, that should be covered under warranty too.

I don't remember what year or the mileage of your car is, but it would be covered under the Drivetrain Warranty. It probably wouldn't be under the Engine Core Warranty.

Plus, ^ what he said.

Honestly I wouldn't run so many programs if I didn't have dual monitors...

Oh and I cheated technically....within FF I have 6-10 sites going via tabs instead of separate windows.
At work, 1g ram is standard. My home computers are usually more advanced than my work supplied ones.

Morning Peeps, I'm at work this morning. But, I doubt I will be bored for a while. I moved 70 clients computers on Friday from one building to another. This morning I'm here to help them with any questions, like "How do I connect to the new printers?".

When you do get a boat, get one with twin engines. They are easier to handle.

We were following some tundra or w.e truck, supposively going 85 in a 55. But im really not too sure, the cop used v-spec... the local guys at pa said its some type of stop watch calculation of your speed. The cop also chased us down to pull us over. ****** weird red neck *****.

Im going to fight it, but idk the PA traffic laws very well. I know in MD they must use radar for any type of speeding ticket to stick, or the judge throughs it out.

The cop also didnt use radar because my detector didnt even go off period.
It's called Vascar. Very hard to beat in court. The reason your detector didn't go off is because it doesn't use radio or light to measure your speed. You are timed between two measured lines in the road. This is converted to mph.

Beautiful view and cheap taxes. I pay about twice as much as that. I also used to own a 36' boat with twin 440 Chrysler Marine engines. I berried the bow a couple of times in some ruff water on that little puddle to my east.

Beer contains vitamin B12. It may contain some carbs, but it is good for you.
