Just a thought. If they said its past due because of age... ask them to take an oil sample, send it out to prove thats its outdated.

Russ, I believe 2011 MX-5 has a 5/60 powertrain warranty.

You know, nothing is easy. This car was always serviced at the dealer and even they didn't bother to check to see what was due on this car. I would be all over the service manager's *** about why we weren't telling customers that this or that was coming due and why weren't capturing that business. Mick, sounds like the GM isn't doing his thing. This is Bankston Mazda in Ft. Worth.

Yeah I'll have to check when he bought the car but the kicker is that regardless of the 18K on the odometer, the diff was supposed to have been serviced at 4 years. That's what Mazda USA is saying.

Stan, you don't want to trade with Tim. His is a Canadian Ford. It would need a lot of conversions.

You have to change over the gas tank from liters to gallons.

Got an event on Friday or I would be happy to see you and Jack once again and meet Marcus.

Sorry it took a bit to answer, Russ.....I WAS IN THE GARAGE REPLACING THE ANTENNA MAST ON SHERRI'S MIATA. Glass good, no differential whine....it's a keeper.
