Are starters covered under 48m50k warranty? I believe my star
I suspect my starter my be dead. I noticed a couple of days ago that starting was difficult. As of 3 hours ago my 8 is kaput. I will have it towed in tomorrow. If it is not covered under warranty, anyone have an idea as to what the replacement cost is?

yes covered and you get the new improved one.

When I turn off the ignition off I get a "click" noise that comes from the engine bay. Is it suppose to do that?

It's true my Rx8 died at my company x-mas party...thanks god for AAA...take the car to Sears and have them test the battery before you do anything else.

car might be flooded as well. Yes it's covered.

The starter motor costs around $300. I have a spare starter I can sell you.

Just an offer for anyone who needs one.

it shoudl be covered check the TSBs as well- my dealer put the new one in for free when i was getting work done
its cool, car starts like a rocket now. |
Thanks all for the input. Got my R(ed)X-8 back from the dealer yesterday. They installed new battery, new starter and new plugs. BTW flooded engine was the problem. Seems that for whatever reason the cold weather this year has had more of an effect on starting up than last year. I am in the ATL area so I feel for you guys in the really colder areas.

Yeah, feel me; it was 9F yesterday morning. ;)
