The dealer has had it for almost 6 months. Car was getting warranty work done.

6 MONTHS of warranty work?? That's crazy!

If you don't mind me asking, what was wrong with it?

All we know is.... He's called The Stig

Long story short, one thing happened after another and I kept having to bring it back in after like a week or so of getting it back. The most recent work, they replaced my motor.

Wow, I'd tell them to give me a replacement car! I'm sure I wouldn't get it, but I'd sure explain in detail how much I wanted to have the car replaced.

I've had the car way to long to have it ruled out as a lemon. But they were real accommodating with giving me a free loaner car. It was nice to have 4 doors and a sun/moon roof again.

I came from a BMW, I definitely miss the comforts that I took for granted!

I imagine a lot of people with your issue have had to go through the same thing. Tough call. Either tear into the engine to look for the failure directly or nickel & dime around to rule out other causes while the engine slowly oil starves itself to death.

Coming out to Sykart?

What??? What's that? So that I either sound smarter or dumber, I'm assuming it's where you can get out and drive the track in your car?

If so, what are the requirements, do you know?
