Weird Noises and stupid mechanics...
Ok well I took my 8 into the shop today because it was making this rattling kind of noise when I accellerated. So after they wasted a bunch of my time, they said something was loose because I am not putting in 87 octane gas (which is BS cause all I use is 91 or higher). So I told the guy that and he just kind of mumbled and said next time they arent going to fix it.
So its fine for a few minutes, and then im driving up to Red Rock to take some pics of it and it starts making the noise again. What do u guys think it could be? O and the guy said anything over 93 octane is bad (which I think is retarded), is that true?
*I attached the red rock pics, just because lol*

You need to read this thread: https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-trouble-shooting-95/rx8-engine-replacement-bad-news-66842/
It seems that automatics, stop-and-to driving and hot climates do not agree with the RX-8 engine. You should also find a more competent dealer.
