Hello you love, ??????? for a long time it was very quiet about our Mazda MX-5, because we had experienced a lot during this time. ??? It was an exciting time from 2021 – 2023. It started with engine problems, then went on about rust problems etc….but what I tell you that, there are all known problems. After very long back and forth we decided, the MX-5 stays and we continue to dedicate our closeness to Him and he stays with us. ??? To that we had then visit from the Tuni ngprofis (known from the TV) who donated a new design to the Mazda, as well as in their own work some attachments were sponsored by companies. Next year (2024) he will be equipped with a few sport springs, so that he will be brought back on the ground again. So 2024 it goes even further and we are not finished with our project by a long way…. And yes, we like it and the car attracts the eyes. ????????Links away, MadMax 的MT Team Dear Greetings from Flensbur g

Hello, I have the car forever, but as a second vehicle. All year, but only summer tires, so in winter only sporadically on the road. Has also only 76,000 km on it. Lt. my WS will soon become due the clutch, which squeaks from time to time. Something they have last lubricated and seen some “abrase” or something. Otherwise the top is in shot and is always finely pampered Overall the but too little distance gets off and therefore I would now like I have only the protection letter at the HUK. Is it enough? Yes, I know, no one is in it – but such an experience might be worth it? I thank you very much and wish you all a good trip at all times! If you want to go on holiday with us, you can go on holiday.

Hello, the wear on the left cheek of the driver’s seat is sufficiently well known and widespread. Not to get used replacement without wear. New seats too expensive. Therefore my question: 1. Does anyone have experience with the installation of seats from other vehicles? 2. Does anyone know if you can convert the passenger seat to driver’s seat? Thank you for your advice.

Hello together, I’m about to make a purchase decision and wanted to get some opinions. I decided to get a MX5 and I’m already looking forward to the car. I’ve been looking at some offers for some time and now I have to choose between two. These offers are only fundamentally different, because one is a new ND and the other is a used NC. I have to say I like the ND a bit better and of course it has a much better equipment. The offer I have is a price of 22,000€ for the Exclusive-Line. I would get the NC Niseko I looked at for about 12.00€. Here is the offer: [url=MX5 NC Niseko Bj 2009]http://suchen.mobile.de/…/details.html?…[/url] Do you think this is a good offer for a 7 year old car? And do you think it would be worthwhile to invest in the ND despite the loss of value of a new car? Thank you for your Meinu n.a.

Hello all, you helped me (last September) so great with the purchase advice. I have now a 1,9 NBFL with now 130TKM (year 2001). Now I have the problem that it just drains on start drives (if it is sunny and warm) or it does not take any more gas and I have to turn it off. Then it doesn’t jump any more. If you wait now 1-2 hours, it jumps on and purrs again normally until the next “overheating”. The Mazda dealer now has the crankshaft sensor for schlap From the yard down, through the city at 30 degrees and again the problem occurs. By means of the search function you will eventually get to ignition coil. But is this the problem I described? Is it true that you always have to replace the ignition coil in the whole set? What costs can I count on? 2 x 500 EUR? oh my God, but that’s just the way it is with 14 years old cars… Thanks for your tips, Dennis

My workshop has found rust on the boot lid, which falls under the Mazda warranty (14 years warranty against rusting). The case has now been reported to Mazda, but they also said it could take up to 12 weeks until I get an answer. Has anyone ever had experience with it? How does Mazda react in such a case? Will the repair be taken over, will I receive compensation? Is 12 weeks of waiting for an acute rust problem perhaps not a little long, so that it is only a short while longer. Will always be?

Hello, my NB has to go to the TÜV next year and we had it yesterday under a stage at the local car body builder and the result was: The car is “finished” and he estimated the costs at well over 2,000€. Pictures can be found here:https://goo.gl/photos/LDNSvTjj4PZZyC8A8 Since it is difficult for me after so long time to just leave my car so, I wanted to ask again if you can see a chance to save it…? If no how can I get it used best? Are you considering the costs? So far nothing has been invested in maintenance? Thank you, Alex.

Good evening, I’m about to replace the ZR on a MX5 NB, now the belt disc has to go down, but I can’t get off the central screw on the KW… the 4 M6 screws just came down, but now this screw has to go down. I’ve already tried with a impact screw, but he probably didn’t have enough power.. then I tried with a counter holder & violence, and there’s one of the rods (the counter holder) broken off and the screw didn’t move I Ch will try it with a stronger impact wrench, but does someone have another idea? Except as suggested in other threads with a self-made counter holder that you attach to the 4 M& screws… because if you use force on the 4 M6 screws like that, they certainly don’t have a good PS: the pulley looks like in the attachment (in the photo 2 of the 4 nuts are still on it, now they are out) (the mother must definitely down, since the Simmerring also to be replaced) Grus

Hello together, probably most people now think that this is close to apples compared to pears. That’s perhaps so. But I’m still torn back and forth between these two cars. At the moment I drive a Golf 7 1.2 with 105 hp. Today I would consider this a mistake. Because driving with more wums is much more fun. I drove both rehearsals. The GTI has conjured a smile on my face. Wow. He pulled really well and was used to being agile, over the The Mazda with 160 hp has something. Anyway. But he has driven himself quite differently. The brakes seemed very cumbersome to me and the steering was not as “easy” as with the golf. In addition, we had 4 degrees and the open driving was frosty. However, I find his charm very nice. But I also want to drive it in everyday / winter. I unfortunately could not test the motorway. Could however already imagine that I am safer in the golf there at higher In addition to that, I can’t decide between black and white. The spoilt of choice. Maybe you can help me make the right choice. Audi TT had also thought about it. But of course it costs a rod. If needed anyway. LG Cathrin

Hello MX5ler… I’m sorry if I use a purchase consultation, but I’m in a personal dilemma and need your advice. It’s specifically about this car:MX5 Mobile.de Now to the dilemma: the car is in the photos impeccable. I telephoned with the person and I rarely had such a reasonable conversation (the feeling tells me the person is really convinced of the car). The car has no rust and we would both have the car below as above in My problem is that the car is a little far away and I can’t test it because it has a season mark. But a short number indicates that I have HU and vehicle registration (is that not stupid?). Would you buy a car that you can’t test it, purely from the optical if it really was all about the car in super condition? Unfortunately, the car has no history except the TÜV reports. I think, however, if the places are problematic everything TOP would be THE chance to get a good MX5. Greetings Endo
