Fresh out of Storage!!!
 

Ok i took my rx8 out from storage 1day ago and the car was giving me a hard time. Would start up and then the engine light comes up and flashes. so i got it towed to mazda and they told me every time a rx8 comes out of storage the plugs need to be changed. can this be true i mean 600$ each time i storage? would i be better taking them off for winter storage?

*sigh* ...

lol yeah misfiires...mazdas gonna charge you and arm and a leg, and it probably wont even just be the spark plugs. Could also be your ignitions coils and spark plug wires, you can do the work yourself for A LOT cheap, hell you can get all the parts for a LOT cheaper if you do it yourself, on a n00b scale from 1 - 10, 10 being the hardest, i rate this job about a 4.5 meaning that even the n00best of n00bs can do this. just search the DIY section :)

heres my own DIY on changing the coils, easy 20 minute job IF that

yah i have done the job myself before, but was on a hard deadline and was at work so could not manage it. Now is it normal for them to say i need to change the plugs each time i get the car out of storage?

Already knew the problem just needed it fixed fast :P

i have my new BHR kit just waiting on my new Rx8 to put it in

no, depends on the condition of your car and the way you drive it, mazda has no say on when your maintenance part go out.

kk found that weird too thx Dozer.
