LOL, they did something wrong there. it had internals, a downpipe cut out, meth and ALOT of other mods. it wasnt a stock engine that blew or anything. it also sounded like he was using a stock fuel pump. which is a big no no in the MS3 world.

 

For anyone that doesn't want to read through that here's some crib notes:

- car had the living hell modded out of it (and potentially a custom tune which he won't seem to address)
- beating the **** out of the car, did a NLS from 3-4, motor blew all to hell (there's some nice pics)
- user complaining about the motor and warranty, trying to file lemon law and blaming Mazda (who may be partially at fault with the number of failures they've had on the MS3 motors but still)

 

This is silly....How many cobalts have blown up after being modified\tuned........lame example!

 

Wow......

There are more issues with a Cobalt than a MS3.

 

 

Beat me to it...

 

 

this is also comming from the guy who over paid to have hahn products

 

That's the first MS3 I've seen to grenade. I don't browse their forums but I see them things running around all over the place.

But even then, all motors are going to have their issues. You can't nail quality of a vehicle based on one motor going boom. I bet more LSJ's have gone boom than you will ever see a MS3 go boom.

 

all the people on that forum are whiney babies too.

 

hnoes: it's reign ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuunnnnnnnnnnnnnn!

The thing was modified alot and had a custom tune from what I read.... Any car can go boom when you do that. And I agree I see a **** ton of ms3's out there and most people I talk to have no issues at all!

 

Have you not looked around on here?

Yep.

 

Yo man I blowz up muh engine in muh ms3. I'z gunna blame Mazda for dat **** yo!

 

Do a search on their forums (and other MS forums) and read up on the concerns people have with the MS3, this definitely is not an isolated incident. The odd thing is a number of them have reported the motor blowing under normal driving conditions (which I believe is when the LNFs that have blown experienced their issues) and not while they are pushing it. There's no warning it just randomly blows a cylinder, throws it through the block and that's all there is to it.

 

And de-mod\have mazda fix it under warranty yo!

Ok I am going to scrape for numbers......wait I can't get an accurate account of what is going on because the people happy with their cars don't post up.....

 

I'm not saying there's anything wrong with the quality of the MS3 I'm simply saying it's NOT an isolated incident. It's a mechanical piece of machinery, there's always a potential for failure whether you've modded it or not but people thinking this is a single case because it was modded to hell also isn't accurrate.

 

Actually i got group buy prices on all my parts so suck it.

This thread was just a joke to try and get one person worked up so settle down everyone.

 

Was it? Really? I don't think so.

I think someone got hit with surprise buttsecks and now are butthurt.

 

Members of the cobalt community never cease to amaze me.
