He received plenty of help trouble shooting from us, to which he even acknowledged in a thread he posted here about it. However, warranty issues have to follow a proper procedure when dealing with other manufacturers. Not my rules, not Corky's rules. Industry standard policies.
The manufacturer knows that we posted "Warranty covered by Manufacturer" on the website. As Alex's turbo was purchased during that time, before things were "clearly stated", the manufacturer and I came to an agreement that they would warranty it, if it tested to be defective. However, they had to have the turbo in hand to test it and/or to warranty it. Alex refused to send it back. When I offered to trade parts to cover the cost of freight, he still refused. Corky and I have done what we feel is fair, right, and ALL that we can possibly do to help him. Without his cooperation, our hands are tied. I am sorry that his location overseas (to us) is an issue, however, I can't help that either. Sort of allowing him to dictate another company's warranty policy, we have done all we can to help him. If he decided to send the turbo back to us, we would still send it in for warranty testing, evaluation, and possible replacement. The "proverbial" ball is in his court. Stephanie somobdy please BAN that SOB! |

Stephanie Looking forward to getting my "Partial S4," Stephanie, should be here Friday! |
LOL. Maybe......
I've busted a few engines already, that were not mine. That sinking feeling in your head and stomach is not pleasant. But hey, more boost solves all problems! Stephanie |

Malevalax is obviously a spiteful asshat. He is spending more time and effort badmouthing BEGI on the internet than on a solution or compromise. Uber twattery.
That is a good word. If you pay attention you really can learn something new every day! |
Stephanie,
My turbo is not longer puking smoke or blowing oil out the BOV with the restricter. Thanks, Mr. Universe |

Chinese turbo's are hit or miss and you should have known that before hand. I am on my second one that I got from ebay. The first one lasted 2 weeks, fortunately the place I got it from had a 30 day warranty and they replaced it without question and the replacement has been running strong for almost a year. None of the parts Begi built failed on you, you chose to cheap out on the turbo and you fell into the miss category. It's sucks but that is the risk you took. |

Excellent! Unpack, inspect, and let me know if there are problems.
Stephanie Mr. Universe, Jr. |
I've had my Begi S4 for about 18 months now. Steph and everyone at Begi have been more than available and helpful, far and above what I would ever have expected. Anyone who mentions them and poor customer service in the same sentence has no credibility with me.

Since you're in here, I have a question:
Say I wanted to place an order for an s4 tubular manifold for a 99-00 miata non egr. How soon should I expect to get one? What about a log style? |

The way I read it the 15 day warranty was not communicated until after the sale was already completed. Sounds like he has a valid claim.

IF his turbo is defective, it can be replaced. 2. IF he sends it back to me. 3. If the turbo is defective, it will be replaced by the manufacturer with a new one. 4. If the turbo is not bad, he is still left with trouble shooting to do on his car. Where did we not address his claim? Where did we not go the extra mile to find a solution for him? Stephanie |
