I have a 2004 RX8, need to know if I should fix or sell

A remanufactured engine isn't that pricey and comes with a warranty. It'll take some work and money but you'll be happy to have your car back.
Thanks !! Where can I find a new motor? I'm keeping the car!! :-)
Unless you can find someone that specializes in Wankel engines, the Dealer isn't a bad choice. Shop around if you can.
I talked to a dealer about my car and he said that it could be what he referred to as a 'wash down' ? Said that if someone put the sparke plugs in wrong it would act like it is.. and I may not need a new motor. He suggested I get a camera light and look at the apex seals to see if they look good... how do I look at them? I do not know where they are... The charge to fix that he said would be about $160.00 vs. a starting price of $5000.00 for them to rebuild or replace the motor..

A Wankle engines always need apex seals. A good fresh engine $5000
