has any body had as many problems as i have with a 3650.

i bought the car used with 30000 miles on it.

2 weeks later, the track claimed the first set of internals... thank god for warrantys. they take my car and mess around with it for a week and a half and give it back. they had to replace everything. i was looking at the service records and for the amount they spent to fix they shoud have bought me a tko. and not had to worry about it

broke in the new tranny with about 500 easy freeway miles and putting around town. go to the track and half way through the night every time i shifted i noticed more and more of a grind... i was pisssed. first for how long it took them to r and r a tranny and second for how quick it went out. i didnt even miss a shift once. i decided to beat the thing up as bad as i could to get a replacement. back to that whole driving it like your rich thing. by the end of the night of 15 runs. i lost syncros in second and third gears.

took it back and talkedto the manager and ended up needing a week to replace a second and third gear plus syncros. great ...

get it back and same thing happens a couple more times

with in 6000 miles of driving my car the score is curently

2500 miles since last rebuild

100% new internals- 2
Syncros - 3
clutch/t.o bearing/ piolet bearing/alignment/wheel rotation/brake service/ and tune ups....all complementary for my rations( i mean troubles) and 5 complementary oil filter and oil changes coupons. still got 3 left

has anybody had these kinds of problems... or is mine just a bad seed???
