Warranty information clarification
1 Attachment(s)
Today I got a print-out of the warranty information on the RX-8 I purchased:
Attachment 236801 I was mainly curious about the 4206F recall. I noticed on my report it has a lot of 4206F information. One says rental vehicle, PCM reprogram, another says Cust. Fuel Re (what is that?), and Cust. Vehicle. I just want to clarify what each of those are. I know that for the recall Mazda did a compression check and test of the motor, and if you failed you got a new one. So I'm curious as to what all that means.. did I get a new motor? or was the car fine? Also, what would be "converter?" |
These typically don't make much sense. I had my buddy print one of these out for me and half the crap I have had done at the dealer is not on there. I'm not sure what the 4206F is.

Bring it in to your local dealer and ask them to clarify.

right below that, though is Catalytic converter. Done at 15k miles in '06. Same time as 4206F recall.

When you left your car, you got a free rental. They usually did a fillup and a wash before you picked it up. They made a big thing of "White glove treatment," with bad engines replaced with remanufactured (Ha!) rather than letting the dealers dig into the innards. Ken |
okay so because I got the PCM flash, that means my engine checked out ok?
I'm beginning to understand it more. |

Yeah I knew what they tested, didn't know if I passed or not.
