I HAD A NEW HONDA ONCE. I Accidently dropped the clutch and the car stalled. after that, the engine buzzed/vibrated. BUZZED the steering and gas pedal. No one at honda could figure out what was wrong. BUT I DID THAT SAME THING IN A MUSTANG with a V8 and NOTHING broke on the car. MOST OF THE FOREIGN cars are STILL very fragile. YOU CAN'T JUST accidently drop the clutch or something like that. this is why I STAY FAR AWAY FROM foreign cars now (unless i plan in advance to drive it gently like any single thing will break it.)

theres a REASON chevy small blocks are still in production. they are reliable and easy to fix or replace.

Sorry about what happened to your Mazda engine.
