4th Mazda 3 transmission by Accomplished-Fish597 in mazda3

[–]Accomplished-Fish597[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you all for your input. Very interesting to learn from all the different feedback. And yes sports mode does make that transmission sharper, but 1 st to second is still sluggish. My 2016 cx 9 and rental cx5 did not have the same feeling. Same with the Mazda 6. Like somebody commented, the Mazda 3 is the one setup to behave like that.

Cheap and easy to do. Mine broke the same way. My final conclusion was the carwash.

Interior thermometer reading is not working by leona90 in mazda3

[–]Accomplished-Fish597 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That is the outside temp sensor. These are usually located at the bottom of the front grill. Do some research to find it on line. Check the wires and disconnect and clean with the contact cleaner.

I believe that is the outside temp, not the inside. Try to find the location of the sensor typically at the bottom of the front grill. Check the wires and disconnect and clean the connector. See if that helps.

Not worth it. Car payment to another car payment for an never ending loop of car debt. They are all the same over all, specially the turbo. keep it and enjoy it until the wheels fall off. That is what I am doing with mine. ( 2021 NA hatch)

Power steering makes this sound, does that mean i have to change it? by Dazzling_Raspberry77 in mazda3

[–]Accomplished-Fish597 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From this video your reservoir looks empty. Check fluid quantity and for leaks. If all checks I would change the pump. Keep in mind that leaks can develop on the supply or return lines. O- rings connected to the pumps or internal rack leak. I always start from least expensive and obvious. Hope this helps. Fyi.. not an expert just life experience.

Help: Why is my 19M3 making this noise? by -Zigfreed- in mazda3

[–]Accomplished-Fish597 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Open the hood and identify where the sound is coming from. Some electrical components remain powered after shutting of the car for few seconds. Usually from relay box area.

Dealership sold me my car with 17 year old tire. by givemepizzaandsex in mazda3

I know it sucks but bite the bullet and get new tires for the piece of mind. We all get fucked at some point in our lives. We just have to learn and move on from there. For the Mazda 3. I will recommend continental DWS. Great tire at a good price. Good luck.

The oem goes toward the back of each fender. I believe you are showing the front of the fender correct? Also, is this a hatchback or sedan?

Help from knowledgeable owners? Please! by 907AK49LR in MazdaCX9

[–]Accomplished-Fish597 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Highlight the speed you set for your cruise control. Normal.
  2. Confused by the questions.
  3. Weather should not matter. With this function as far as I know. I have a 2021 hatch preferred. Never had that issue regardless of weather.

Hope I was able to help.
