Simple question about going Dealer.

Last night, engine flood again...

Usually, whenever I had a problem, I called to a saleman who sold a car to me

and he connected to service department to make an appointment.

But, the dealer has moved and now I have to drive more than hour.

So, I found another Mazda dealer around my area.

Is it ok to go to the dealer to get Free service even though I do not buy

a car from there?

As I said, I am going to get check up about engine flood.

Im pretty sure it should cover under warranty. Right?!

I am a first New Car owner who do not know about much about it.

Any Mazda dealer will do. You have a Mazda Warranty, not a "Bob's Car Dealer Warranty".

Yes, any Mazda dealer should take care of it. (What if you were on vacation and it flooded—same thing, right?)

what parts will they change for engine flood?

Just wondering.

And whenever I drive it, I can hear kind of wind sound from transmission,

either low and high RPM.

what do you think the problem?

I can hear that sound since I have changed the tranny and diff fluids.

Do a SEARCH !!!

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Fine, one last time

if its really flooded,

they will replace the plugs for sure.

they will check the battery, replace if needed

and might program your ECU to whatever the latest version they might have.

Starter as well.

that *wind* kind of sound could be the normal syncho sound. could be something else. its hard to tell from words. if u just changed your fluids. it could be normal.
