Sorry, turbo engines are ALWAYS defective, far from an optimal design, VERY far.

You've done everything I would do except for one thing.
 
Here in Boston, some of the local ABC, CBS and NBC news affiliates have a consumer advocate that reports on scams or bad business. These spots are run during the evening news. Ild call them and have them show up a the Mazda dealership or perhaps they can call Mazda USA and see what response they get now.
 
I'm truly hoping these problems have been resolved in the 2009 model.

Here is a GREAT idea if you do not get the resolution you desire in this situation. Go and park your car outside the dealers entrance on weekends and tie a bag of lemons from every door handle on the car. In addition write a BIG sign that says Mazda sold me a lemon and wont fix it. I guarantee this will capture the attention of the service manager to resolve the issue. In the meantime drive all around town with the lemons hanging from your door handles. No making lemonade here, this is just sour business practices that need to be stopped.

Class Action Suit by ajcooper

My 07' Mazda CX-7 just had the same problem on the 13th, and guess what the dealership said the same thing due to improper maintanence which isn't the case at all, why should I have to go back and search 2 years worth of records for them to tell me tough luck, I am seriously looking into a class action lawsuit, has anyone looked into this already?

I do not think anyone has looked into a class action suit. When I put my problem out there with the engine and then the turbine I did not know how many cars had a problem. I have all my records for oil changes and work at the dealer ship. They just did not want to see them.

I Just replaced my engine at 42000 miles with no help from mazda. Has anyone had luck gettintg through to them or hearing back? They used the same "lack of maint." deal with me, even though I bought it used and only owned it for 8 months. I had to pay another mechanic to replace the engine. I don't have money for lawyer . . .any suggestions?

Yes, in the future stay well away from turbo charged engine, ESPECIALLY second hand.
 
The words "TURBO" and "TurboCharged" are a well known attractant for those of the "boy-racer" mentality, if not actual "boy-racers". They do not treat their cars/engines well and probably remove all of the aftermarket GU-GA, evidence, prior to resale.

Mazda knows there is a problem with engine sludge. Mazda has allerted their dealer network as well. I'm just curious as to what they are going to do about it.

Add me to the list. My CX-7 has failed and dealer wants $90 per hour just to diagnose problem. After only about 30-45 minutes of research, I have come to believe that consumers may have grounds for a class action lawsuit against mazda. This vehicle is horrible.

BTW, this is a 2007 with about 70k miles on it.
