well when my car is idle, the engine has this noise, almost like a clapping noise, and it seems to be the lifters or the valves. I bought it into the dealer today and the guy there even said ur car sounds like shit
so tomorrow she goes in
has anyone else experience this problem?
I honestly wish i would of never of boughten this car, ive had so many problems, and my dealer is a ass. O well, can't wait for the warrenty to go, then sell it.

Let me know what they say the fix is and if you are feeling frisky you could ask them what it would cost for a shmuck who no longer has a warranty.

for real?
if you had that many problems you should check into the lemon law.

well doesnt lemon law only apply to a problem that keeps occuring?
like all my problems have been different everytime, like once, oil all over the engine bay, with no oil left in the motor, they toped it back up and its never happend since
um my interior trim on the doors inside the car all came unglued, the frame rails have all pealed off paint after only 2 weeks of owning this car, wut else, lets see. my carpet has riped, my seats foam has deformed and mazda says its wear and tear, im like theres 23000 km on this car, how can that be? my wheel walls have started surface rust, now the engine noise.
i cant wait to see what else this car has in store for me

boy that does blow....
save cash so when the time comes to sell, you can get the new evo (with suspiciously similar roof line)....
saw it at the NY auto show...(omg)

well they cant figure out the problem, so they ordered a new intake, throatle
body, AGR system, and gaskets, they said hopefully that will fix the problem,
if not, they got to dig deeper
