they are not going to admit they screwed up the cable. they're going to tell you something is broke and charge you more money.

it sounds like a coil problem but you said you replaced them right??? or did you take them back off when you first took it back to the stealership???

What happened? Coils? Plugs? Firebomb at the stealership with service reps and uncertified/rotary unqualified mechanics running out in a fiery haze of doom?

lololololol.

sorry for the lack of update, school started this week so ive been a little preoccupied. i got the car back and it ran without stalling, though it still shakes if it drops past roughly 600rpm. the guy at mazda put "reflashed pcm" on the invoice. that apparently stopped the stalling. i personally think its bullshit but what do i know?

im over it by now. im sick and tired of having my car constantly in and out of the shop. as much as i love the uniqueness of having a rotary and all that it stands for, i think my time has come. at 18, i dont have the wallet to keep this up. im just thinking about saving my pennies and trading in for something new. ive got a particular car in mind, but any suggestions from you guys?
