sup guys. im new to the site and im in need of a mechanic. i recently took my rx-8 to about 5 diffrent mechanics and all have them have no idea how to deal with a rotary engine. so i was hoping one of you guys would know a good mechanic that knows what their doing or could take a look at it yourself. i have an evap leak and a missfire, and im also lookin for a price range for the problem. any help would be much apriciated. im located in the prmbroke pines/ miami area. thanks!

 

nobody here knows a mechanic?

 

for the misfire change your spark plugs, wires, and ignition coils its about a 30 minute job.
pm me if you need help with it.

 

Evap leak is more than likely your gas cap leaking.

 

both easy fixes

 

I dont know if you bought your car brand new but to let you well they have a recall out for the gas cap you may want to check that out could solve your problem...

 

Drive to West Palm Beach and drop it off with PettitRacing if you don't want to, or know how to, fix it yourself

 

ok cool thanks everyone

Hello,
I have an mazda 04 rx8, in the miami area. I am in need of a mechanic to take a look at my rx8 for a couple problems it has. Anyone know any reliable mechanics in the area?

Thanks...

 

. What's wrong with it?

 

Need to replace the engine mounts, check the exhaust system and see if any other problems persist

 

Is your check engine light on?

 

Nope engine light isnt on, but whenever the car is in gear i can feel the car shaking lightly, had ocean mazda check it, told me mounts need to be replaced. Wanting to switch out my exhaust is on my list also.

 

I myself need engine mounts that's what Mazda told me as well. My biggest issue is my steering and can't figure out why my DSC, brake light and my traction control light are on =\ I do my own work I don't trust anyone specially in Miami lol.

 

I agree with you, most are scams. I usually do everything myself, but i got my engine rebuilded with Rotarywerks, he does great job and is legit, not like every other mechanic down here. If you want his number pm me..

 

hello guys,

if anyone knows of a mechanic that can see an RX8 '08 at a home...please let me know...thank you
