I feel your pain...that's my valve spring/locked up engine thread. I also had the hydrocarbon pad sucked into my intake and disable the car about a month after getting the new engine broke in.
Good luck and keep us posted.

Just had the car towed to dealer. They don't know what's wrong with it yet but said they will call me as soon as they know anything. Not sure if they will be able to look at the car today or if it will have to wait till Wednesday due to the break.

Sprite205,
Enjoy your new car. What a switch. I've never seen that car on the road in Canada. Only at the autoshows... and only in yellow too.
Let us know the whole story on your return from Cancun.
Cheers!
Bill.

We Checked out some of the Lambo's at the dealership in our recent trip to Rome. Sweet rides!! Of course the competition a few doors down were no slouches
To bad about your Z, Good luck with the new ride.
