Engine Failure - help please
Hi,
I could do with some guidance please.
I am currently waiting for the Financial Ombusdmen to sort out my car with a warranty company, who are refusing to pay up on a Warranty, as I only had the car for a month before I had serious car problems.
This has nearly been a year now, and I have decided to get the car fixed myself as I can't wait any longer for the Ombudsman to get their act together.
Basically, does anyone know a company near Nottingham that would be able to fit or fix a new engine to my Mazda. I took the car to a Mazda dealership, and the report is below in blue.
The Mazda dealer said there was a place in Chesterfield that could help, but thats all the info I received.
Hope you can help, thanks in anticipation.
Carried out investigation into temperature guage going high.
Removed header tank cap and found with this removed water was spilling out at a force indicating an engine fault.
Carried out further investigation and found lack of power. Carried out compression checks and found low compression, also found water in the engine rotas. Found staining around the water pump indicating a leak from the internal impellar seal.
It is quite obvious that the engine has major internal failure.

whats an Ombudsman?
Since this dispute is with a warranty company, it's probably an arbitrator chosen by (or working for) the warranty company. They're calling him or her an ombudsman to give the illusion of impartiality. Unless laws there are more protective than they are in the US, and they really do have to bring in someone impartial.
