The top few TSB's on the RX-8 have been rewritten recently. What do you think? Go here and read...

which ones?... at a quick glance I didn't see any changes

 

I see that some were recently revised and specifically state that it replaces the old bulletins... but I honestly couldnt tell you what was changed lol. Whatever they did change, I'm wondering what was wrong with them before...

 

Take Engine Lack of Power TSB for example :

They changed couple parts of the TSB. it "specifically" said that the top 2 reason for Engine lack of power "could" came from Clogged CAT or Bad Coils.

Added Warranty terms info. some updated "repair" info, and bunch of other minor changes.


Hmm, seems that they are knowing more and more about the engine failures. a lot of good returned engines maybe ?

 

For Engine-No Start TSB :

they added some possible cause, added the zoom zoom engine cleaner part, some other wording/repair stuff, and warranty info

 

WATER IN COMBINATION LIGHT - IMPROPER SATELLITE RADIO ANTENNA
CABLE ROUTING

This is a new TSB, rofl. I think I need to reroute this, hmm .. might as well take the whole thing out, since I dont use Stock HU and this SAT thing has been broken for more than a yr anyway.

 

dont ask me how I know them ... I read them like 20 zillion times so .... shhhHHHHH !

 

Any update to getting condensation in tail lights? It just started happening for me.

 

The new one just tells ya that how to install the SAT module properly.

if its ur right side that has condensation, this does not apply to you.

but whatever, if u have a problem and still under ur b2b warranty, go tell them to fix it (they will replace the whole light if water gone in)

if no more b2b warranty, go find the king's DIY (me) to take the lights out and clean it thy self

 

It's been suspected for quite some time that a lot of the dealerships were probably lazy and so yanking engines even if they didn't have to since they couldn't be bothered to diagnose the problem. Glad to see that what we felt seems to be correct.
