New to the rotary scene :)
Well me and my fiance just picked up an 04 rx8. its an automatic unfornatly but its for her to drive.. the car drives beyond amazing so were really excited about that. Im a little worried though, the more I read about the car the more problems i hear about. so I have a few questions.
How can I find out if all of the recalls have been done on the car?
Is there a way to tell if the engine has been replaced?
how bad is this flooding issue?
when it does flood is it somthing i can let it sit for a while and then start or is there a fix needed when it happens?
Thanks, I have more questions but my keybord is broken so ill ask later haha.

just let your get warm before shutting it off and you'll be fine.. I have'nt flooded my car one time in 4 yrs. If you absolutely have to do a quick move be sure to rev it up to 3 grand for 8-10 sec. and shut it off immediatley. hope this helps but it should all be in your manual as well as the de-flood procedure. Also, if your fiance is going to be driving it, make sure to tell her to rev it up at least once a day.. I know females don't like to drive aggressively but it will keep your engine healthy.
