Dealer told me I may need a new engine soon! Anyone knows where I can find one??? Help Please!

 

What did they say was going out on yours?

 

dealers like to throw out blanket statements.

you may not need a new engine.
what is wrong with yours?

 

at this thread..

More info on the engine problem..

 

Misfire codes 1-6 and P0172 - Bank 1 Fuel system too rich. A compression test was done and the compressions vary from 95 PSI to 160 PSI. Cylinder 1 has 80% leak down. They're guessing maybe water or an over rev caused some of this damage.

Cant over rev in an automatic.
are you 6MT?

 

yup

 

so, this next question is important.

did you over-rev?
or
did you suck up water?

 

the only water i can think of maybe from the cold air intake but i have a hydro shield so i kind of doubt that. The over rev could have came from me letting someone drive my car smh but i'm not sure of the exact cause

 

did you have these codes when you took it in or did they test drive it and mess it up?

You could put in a J35A3 engine. Teh CL documented what's necessary to change over (it's not much) from your 6speed engine. It's plug and play and you'll have a 3.5. Put in your type S cams and you have a 3.5 type S. Check carpart.com

 

thanks i didn't think about that
