...I purchased a power train warranty from the dealer when I purchased the car. At first they denied the claim when the shop quoted replacement because of various "most likely modifications". After a month of explaining the intake (the only mod they could prove), they offered to reimburse for the cost of a used engine if I did it my self with before and after pics. I did it in my driveway, and they honored the reimbursement...
Engine # 2
Purchased a used motor (from a wrecked WRX) from a salvage yard. Same everything except this one had 67k on it. 300miles after installation, it started knocking. Exact reason unknown because the salvage yard did a small investigation of sorts, and offered a full refund including shipping....it went straight on the pallet.....I'm buying a damn
