I just bought this car from a used car lot. Ran perfect for the full day of test driving. Went to go pick it up the day we bought it and it stalled 3 times on me coming home in a 15 minute time range period. It seems to "die" when slowing or at a stop. Took it back to get it fixed, they found nothing wrong with it, so I took it and it drove perfect all day then died once in traffic later that night. SO I took it back and they took it to a mazda dealer to get it fixed. Haven't heard back yet. WHAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM? IS IT FIXABLE? WILL THIS REOCCUR AFTER I FIX IT?
 
well there's no real way to tell, mainly because the mazda rx8 is one if the only cars to use a rotary gear engine, its alot different from all other cars but it is deffinently fixable. but one tip I have for you is when you get the car back make sure when ever you start it you must let it warm up before shutting it off otherwise the rotary engine will flood and it will cost a couple hundred to fix it.
