bart,
you might want to reread everything in your last couple of threads and reflect on it... it is you against the world, why?????? beers |
Okay, disregard all the other threads. Here's the story.
I bought a used 04 Mazda RX-8, with 12k miles on it before thanksgiving weekend. On thanksgiving weekend, I took it out on the parkway to "play" yeah I wen't fast. Heard a few noises here and there. Took it to Mazda, said nothing was wrong (normal transmission noise, proved it to me with a bulletin). Later, I turned on my parked car - drove out of the driveway, drove down the block and my car would lose power to the wheels, thats where the clutch died. Took it to AAMCO, put in a performance Exedy clutch. They took apart my transmission because they weren't sure what the problem was, which than later caused a noise in my transmission when going in reverse. There was another tranmission noises, chatter. Yeah, it was caused by peice of shit penzoil transmission gear oil, not even sure if it was pure synthetic (which really helps on the chatter noises.) Alright, my car was WORKING JUST FINE, and I took it to Mazda again. This time they recommend to drop in a new transmission, or have it rebuilt. I'm having it rebuilt. [edit]No, not at all. It's the rx8club against me. I'm out, later guys.[/edit] |
not accurate at all.

Tiggerlee, did you take the hint?
I was born in Palermo, I'm 17 driving an RX-8, and I live in New Jersey. |

This thread isn't about me racing the Audi, it's about my transmission being fixed. Just wondering though, did you not test drive the car before you bought it? or did the problems only develop after you started driving it. I'm not trying to accuse you of abusing the car, but maybe you should rethink how you drive the car instead of automatically assuming it's not your fault. Who knows, maybe you're a great driver, if that's really the case, than obviously this isn't your fault, but you have to admit, you've given off quite a few signs that seem to lead to abuse. learning to do burnouts definetely cant be good for your car. (yes i saw the thread) Well, whatever happens, I hope Mazda doesn't read this and void your warranty and I hope everything works out. Good luck. |

^^^^ I agree

Makes one wonder if you took it out on your car and that's why it has all these problems so soon. Hmmmmm................ |

You know, people might take you more seriously if you weren't spending all your time swearing at them and calling them names when they disagree. If you don't figure how to control that temper or yours, it's only a matter of time before you'll be spending a very long time behind bars. Inevitably you'll mouth off and some really big guy named Bubba will beat you down. |
Okay, im a fuck tard. Oh and btw, I was talking about "talking smack", typo.
Back to the thread, post # 4. |

CHEERS MATE. When you come back to fill us in on how this story ends - leave the profanity at home. We don't want it here. Yeah, you're getting a bit of hassle about this story - many would say justifiably so. Suck it up, it's life on the internet. You aren't doing a great job of presenting your case or defending your story. That doesn't mean you get to lose it here and start swearing at everybody. If you come back and start posting again like the above quote - the ban will be longer next time. |
So, is this forum closed yet?

Just as an aside, the speed limit is 65MPH on the NJ Turnpike, and only 55 on the Parkway (making 110 double the speed limit). I believe 65 is the maximum posted speed anywhere in NJ. I'd just hate for everyone to be miseducated... ;) |

so what happened?
|
The problem turned out to have NOTHING to do with the transmission, they actually replaced the shift fork (no idea why, I had no problems with shifting).
I just found out that someone else with an ACT clutch in belgium is having the exact same rattling noises i'm getting. |
likely a bent shift fork, but not bent enough to give you shifting issues. there was a problem with this quite a while back..
glad you got it fixed!!! beers |
