Engine failure - 38,000 miles
Add mine to the list of engine failures.
Here are my specs for those curious: 2013 FR-S 6MT 38,000 miles all scheduled maintenance performed USDM TRD Exhaust Completely stock otherwise Original brakes and tires ~25% life remaining Daily driven, no racing Warranty issues serviced: Replaced fuel pump for cricket noise (didn't resolve issue) Replaced both tail lamp assemblies for water leaks (leaked again anyway lol) Retorque loose rear axle nut for clank sound during accel/decel One accident - pickup truck backed into it $11,000 in parts/labor. Non mechanical 99% cosmetic aside from new fuse block and complete engine harness So the story is, I was cruising around 45 mph, heard a light rattle from the engine compartment. Pulled over to inspect with my flashlight. Didn't see anything out of place. Pulled away slowly, rattling got more harsh followed by a squeak and car hesitated. Shut down engine and coasted to side of the road. Towed to dealer. Now I'm waiting for word from Toyota next week about going forward with an engine replacement. In the meantime, back to driving my 22 year old MR2 Turbo still running strong with the original engine lol

MR2s are eternal. Sad for the FRS.

Here's to hoping this all gets resolved for you quickly...
And here's to hoping this failure is not a true engine failure with internal damage and that it is just something that can be remedied without much issue... |

And this, kids, is why you don't continue a drive when the engine makes funny noises.

Good luck man. Hopefully things don't turn out terrible. You should be covered.

Hmm and I was complaining of a light rattle in certain RPM's from my engine a couple weekends ago coming home from a long trip, going about 40 mph it started light and then got louder, and then went away. I have about 32k on mine.
