Ekona Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Jeez, that's desperately unlucky, what happened? No odd noises or anything on the test drive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMballistic Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Welcome aboard and sorry to hear about your Zeds engine going. Try zmanalex (as suggested) as he may have a good used condition engine because he sells used Zed parts: http://www.350z-uk.c.../9648-zmanalex/ You could also ask Clark Motorsport as they did at one point have a used Zed engine or two: http://www.350z-uk.c...ark-motorsport/ Good luck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giec Posted June 29, 2017 Author Share Posted June 29, 2017 The engine was fully reconditioned 9 months ago - 1k miles -by Auto Engines Uk It had that common ticking noise though , but was pulling ok on test drive . When driving home it started rattle more and more and finally gone with big oil leak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was, that would only apply to the previous owner as the purchaser of the work. Unless specified, warranty is not transferable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giec Posted June 30, 2017 Author Share Posted June 30, 2017 Just found out that the company rebuilt the engine is very dodgy , phones not valid , very bad reviews on the internet . My mistake didnt check it before , just trusted in invoice . Another lesson.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekona Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 I'm guessing he means the fuel dampers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
