Turbos are a headache all round - I just had to rebuild my daughters Mazda Cx7 - it had a bent crankshaft after it destroy journal bearings - most likely because the rings were locked up. Got away with buying new crankshaft, connecting rods, bearings and a set of gaskets. Runs great now, but what a headache.
hi ... wow thank you for sharing your experience working on Mazda.. you totally rebuild the whole engine is it worth rebuild it or just replacing the whole engine did you save more money.
@@Vehicles-Tips CX7 2.3L second hand engine were $3000 to $4000... the car is 2010 (156,000KM), so not worth putting that much into. Got a secondhand crankshaft, connecting rods, new piston rings, bearings etc for under $1000 - block was good and head was good, so it worked out well. Plus I had the time to do it. Took me a couple of weeks.
