Congrats on having a good mechanic/dealership and a working car again!

 

Burning any oil?

 

the G coupe does not have a timing belt. thats what the dealer told me...its more like a metal chain ..idk

 

Congrats... after all the drama !

Looks new or rebuilt.

 

hey man i have an 03 g35 and it makes a ticking noise it is not under warrenty to b honest i cant really pinpont or isolate the noise what do i do

 

My mazda started ticking real bad one day i had my old mechanic replace my rod bearings before it was too late. my g35 just happened before i could pull over on the highway. I would get a set of rod bearings and have a mechanic replace the bearings in the engine B4 it gets worse and u should solve ur problem. Plus its one of the cheapest parts in the engine that causes catastrophic failure. Bearings cost me 85$ for a set on the mazda and my mechanic charged me 400 to swapem. Much cheeper than the 6K it costs for a replaced motor installed.

 

Having read all 8 pages in detail, we're happy you like your G35 and are satisfied with the new engine....
