Warranty Question

I have 2004 mazda rx8 with 49000 miles.

My engine was deemed flooded at mazda dealership.

Should flooding of engine be covered under mazda warranty because of 4 year or 50,000mi ???

it is not covered, unless your dealership has a "good heart"

might as well ask them to do a compression test.

What did the dealership say about your engine being flooded? Is it covered under the warranty? Did you have warranty where you bought the car at, if it's not from a Mazda dealership?
