Hey guys, I changed the VDD a month ago, but it’s leaking anyway. Now when I put on a little bit, I broke a screw. Did someone get a solution like me out?

My MAZDA TRIBUTE (EP) 2.3 AWD (EP3W) 2261 cm3, 150 hp, 110 kW 04/04 to 05/08 L3-VE has an engine damage. If someone has a tip for a workshop, a screwdriver, near Kempten/Allgäu, which has an engine and installs it for small money. Thanks for a message.

Hello, who has experience with increased performance in the 323 F BA V6 2.0. I can’t feel anything from the equally powerful engine that has been praised here. The engine does not develop real thrust at any speed, but that even! My old Peugeot 205 1.6 GTI with 103 hp went off ten times better, with more weight per hp. Only the final speed is OK, but it would be nice if in the gears 2-4 driving fun could be achieved. I have heard that parts of the Ford Probe 2.5 V6 Has anyone had any experience? For the engine there are turbo kits in the USA for not so much money. Or what else is there for possibilities?

hello, have a question about a mazda mx5 bj91, since I am not familiar with mazda a good friend of mine has got a cunning tooth strap, and of course and skilful white during the ride, due to lack of maintenance… a little incomprehensible admitted, but my question is the motor of the mx5 free swinging?????? that would be the last hope for the venture since everything else does not pay off. the car is already in the workshop only to the mechanic I don’t trust so much whole 😛 also he claims that the camshaft is bent, which would interest me how this comes about, the car has only about 150,000 km down what for the mazda actually not the problem should be or????? happy about every helpful answer

Hello you, I drive a 99-er MX-5, should have been to the tuv in 01.2010 and renewed my brake blocks at the front as well as at the back.With the locks, which were almost down the Mazda braked quite well, now with the new locks brake the just magnificent (the note for the TÜV I think).The braking system was not open, so I can not assume that I have a pressure loss because of air in the braking system.But somehow it does not brake as it should. I’m probably thinking that ABS won’t turn on any more.Did I put my ABS out of the way and weaken my braking system?Does it seem like I’m going to do a full braking on wet roads and only physically block the wheels as they are funny.The fuse from the ABS is I.O.,but somehow I don’t think it works anymore.Can it be? Refreshing brake fluid can’t be the cause of the problem,or And if the brake discs had been understated, they would still be able to complete a full brake, just like with the old brake blocks, wouldn’t they????? Weird.Can I try or control anything without a workshop??? Would I be very happy about help.

Hello, a common problem that I also have. After a long drive, my circuit becomes more and more difficult. I notice this especially with the 1st and 2nd gears clearly. I have Bowden train and no hydraulics. If the engine is cold, the circuit is okay. The gears don’t flood, but they go in normally without complaint. But if I was on the highway and the engine has become warm, then the circuit becomes shaky. Oil change in the gearbox didn’t bring anything! My car : Mazda Demio Built 2002 (75hp) with 89,000km of mileage. I have read a few articles, among other things, one should screw the joints on the switchbar, free from the rust and then grease them. I just sprayed a little WD40 and a little bit of grease on it. But if I look at the joint from the pole to the gear, it doesn’t make sense to me what the rusting and greaseing should bring in the place. Can someone explain to me on the basis of the pictures? Or maybe there is another Er clarifies my problem!

Would I be interested in who of you bought the RX-8 and how satisfied it is. Also interesting, which equipment or engine variant you have chosen. How high is your consumption? What made you just buy the RX-8?

Hello, in my MX5 Bj 09 I have a problem with the handbrake. If you park the car overnight with the handbrake tightened, you won’t get away from the spot the next day. The brake pads seem to be stuck or rusted. Only after a bit of hearty gas the car rolls with a loud jerk. After that you hear a few hundred meters still a grinding of the discs and is good. Especially in the winter, when the brakes get wet. Weil 6000km first on it and the problem existed from the beginning. Does anyone have any idea what that should be? Do I have to do something? Warranty? Greetings Stephan

Hello guys, I’m currently driving a Mazda 323 BJ (1998), 1.5l. The problem: the ABS and TCS lamps have been burning for a little more than 1.5 years. The problem has been dealt with many times here, but none of the solutions have helped me so far. Maybe there are new insights in the meantime. As I said, ABS and TCS lamps light up. If I start the engine and roll in the stand gas and “drive” in the stand gas, then the lamps are out. The TCS works, you can see nicely with ice and snow. I’m going through the city and the lights are going on and ABS / TCS are not working. Other phenomenon: I drive through the city and the lights are shining. During the ride (e.g. at 30 km/h) I turn off the engine and restart it. The lamps go off and ABS / TCS work completely normal… until the engine is switched off again. And if you don’t even expect the lamps to go off like this, it happens maybe 3 times a year, so it’s more the exception. Mazda Werkstatt and Bosh Service have already read out the error (multiple…) and said that the control unit (2200 Euro) or at least the hydro generator (750 Euro) is defective. I can’t imagine it, but it works, if you turn off the engine for a short time during the ride… I sprayed the small, narrow plug from the control unit with contact spray, didn’t do anything. I jammed the battery for a whole day, didn’t break anything. t. I replaced the fuse, also unsuccessful. Maybe one or the other recognizes the usage here: January 2009: battery replaced (against a new and stronger one with approx. 65 Wh, standard are 40, I think). July 2009: ABS and TCS shine uniquely. I stopped and turned off the engine and left it new. Problem was gone. September 2009: brake pads rear renewed September 2009: new winter tires bought. Since then (summer tires had gone off) September 20 09: Review & TÜV made, no problems found about from October / November 2009: ABS / TCS light up permanently, as described above Does someone know (new) solutions? (Thanks for reading, it has become a lot. )

Hello, I got acoustic insulation (foam as in sound studios) now. wanted to ask if this is enough to dam or if you prefer to stick bitumen under it? mfg
