  • MX-5 brake front right grinds and gets hot

    Hello together, with my MX-5 the brake at the front left will grind. When the wheel is down, I can’t turn the brake disc by hand. And while driving, the brake disc is getting very hot. Am I really assuming that the brake piston from the saddle is fixed? Or is it something else? Would then buy a new saddle. Thanks for the answers.

  • Problems with Westfalia trailer coupling at Mazda 5 CW

    Hello, with my Mazda 5 CW more than 5 years ago a trailer coupling was installed by the previous owner, I bought the car like this. For a few weeks the following problem occurs: When braking it hums out of the control unit back, which is annoying permanently. Whether this works with trailer operation and all the lighting, I can’t say, since I don’t use a trailer and if, then once in ten years. It was easy. In the engine compartment next to the battery are various cables, there are also any terminal, everything is lying there loosely around, does this have to be connected to the battery plus and minus? Mazda has performed the installation dealer, all the documents I have there. Can someone help there? Maybe someone from Heilbronn comes and knows with it well and can check it? Thanks and many greetings.

  • Engine control lamp from 3000U//min

    Hello, yesterday I suddenly went to due engine warning. This flashed several times and lights up now. The curious thing is, no errors were found. This only happens if I have to drive mountains for example and due speed is over 3000 rpm, then comes to a very small jerk and you notice a clear power loss. Bzw. he drives already heavy before. What could it be if no errors are taken off already? Thank you very much.

  • MAZDA 626 TD stutters in the cold

    Hello together, I have the problem with my MAZDA 626 Bj 99, 145000km, only during the cold season, when the temperature falls below 0°C. The ignition works without problems. But only in idle I notice that the fuel is not assumed. I can not reach higher speed On the exhaust I hear noises as if the exhaust leaks. When starting I have to switch into the first meters into the second gear, I can pass through, but the car stutters and can be I have to switch to the 3rd gear (up to max. 30km/h) and then switch to the 4th gear, and reach a maximum speed of approx. 40km/h with a lot of stutter. 🙁 When I pass through, nothing happens. Only when I drive several km, depends on how cold it is, (at -5°C to 25 km) the car slowly gets into normal condition. And then the problem is solved. In the other seasons I have no problem at all. m, I am very satisfied with my MAZDA. Yes, now my question, where could the problem be? Thank you for the answers

  • Mazda 6 problems?

    Hello, after an evil (and above all expensive slip with a Ford Mondeo) I want to become a Mazda driver again. I would buy a Mazda 6 exclusive combination with 2.0-litre gasoline and automatic transmission. After all the trouble with the Ford I have become more careful and want to know if and what known problems there are with the Mazda 6. What should I pay attention to when buying? Thanks already alphazet

  • Mazda 6 MPS

    Hello I hope there isn’t already a thread, I didn’t see any. What do you think about the new 6 MPS, and does someone have more information about it? It was introduced in Paris and should be released in 2005. What I have read so far: – 2.3 L Turbo, 260 HP – 4WD – 18″ rims, etc. I’m very excited about it. I’ve always liked the design of the 6er, and also with power. I think he could become a sharp competitor to the Audis. (Turbo, 4WD) Je I hope only the price remains within the frame…

  • Destroying list of defects in my 323C? (first car…)

    Hello, have a question to the more experienced ones here. I bought my first car spontaneously a few days ago, a 95 Mazda 323C. Then I had him checked out yesterday by the workshop, and the verdict is already quite devastating, right? Here are the defects he listed at the 128 980 km: – Wipe blades front and rear renew – Standlight front right without function – Battery loose – Brake discs (ventilated) + blocks front renew – Brake lines possibly. Partially renewed n – Brake calipers in front can be operated (or so similar, he has a sauklaue…) make – Axle cuffs from the left (wheel side) shortly before tear! – Bar bar in rear left defective – brake hoses in front + rear renew – beginning corrision underbody + frame – headlight glasses in front started (dry!) – beginning corrision wheel barrel h. right So what I wanted to ask, that’s worth it!? And what can it cost to repair all this in a cheap workshop? Thanks already! PS: And what so The insurance company of my parents said that it hardly makes any difference whether I am starting anew or as a third car on my father (parents).
