Just out of curiosity, what was your previous car that you owned before you bought the RX-8?

well they replaced the coils last year coz i got a check engine light flashing, but they only replaced two, should i replace the other two?
spark plugs not yet, they said spark plugs last 90k? but in the manual it says over there to change it every 36k,
the only shiet i put in my car, just borla exhaust, new tires, new rotors, and a ddx 418 reciever

whoever "they" are, are complete morons. regarding your car. Don't take it back there. At the least, follow your owners manual instructions!
test your plugs and coils (search the diy how to do that). If you need to replace, do ALL plugs and coils at the SAME TIME. Search on here for places to purchase from

i did that searching thingy
all they say it could be your battery, starter, coils, plugs
i can still drive my car though, still good in driving, but the starting thats the issue,
maybe flood? or about to flood?
i live in cali so basically its sunny here
