I had one out of two remans purchased about five years ago go back to the factory for warranty. It was a real challenge to get the warranty honored, mainly because my Continental rep was in Alaska (even though I am in Oregon) and not worth a damn. Once I got the factory's attention, the service was good.
I am torn about remans. For years, remans have been the smartest thing to get, because whether true or not, most airplane buyers put more stock in a factory reman than any other type of overhaul. But I wonder if that is still true today...or more importantly, if it will be true in another five years. I suspect not, the way the factory is going lately...
