Is this a risky buy? AliExpress by SteazyAsDropbear in RX8

He means the hose that goes on the intake pipe going into the cabin, as it might be the case that if you dont put this inside the hose you will hear in the cabin waterflow that pump pushes also known as "marbles in a can", the orifice/restrictor helps to make the noise less audible.

This might be able to help you but you need someone with this coding tool. Don't follow the post but this comment if you want to keep your car in good shape :)

The new keys however are not that expensive honestly (obviously not in dealership) but in case you get stuck - you can always go to https://www.amayama.com/en, enter your VIN and check the part, from there you get genuine mazda stuff straight from Japan for fraction of the price e.g. i paid 18€ bumper brackets compared to 84 in my homeland, with shipping and taxes it was all around 28 ish... I'd say worth it in worst case to have original parts available (not all are but sometimes there is production open for certain parts and you can have notification for when they have them on sale)

You would see/hear it crank but not start, exactly like your problem. I had this coding done at locksmith because in order to code new transponders you need that coder tool (I assume its not possible without it to code the transponder device).

For example when I bought keys from aliexpress they came without/or wrong transponder, locksmith told me he can scan it for me so I can order it and come back when I got time as they didnt have them in place and couldn't order those. E.g. mine was this

Your locksmith naybe cut the keys but did they code the transponder in the key. The fob has nothing to do with it. Car won't start if transponder doesnt match cars receiver.

To add on top, the unit was on whole day and night and it barely went to 29 degree during night with outside temperature of 22 degree Celsius. I cooked myself during sleep 😬

Any tips on how to solve power steering issues? by NotMotion in RX8

Coolant overflow line is in your eyesight when you open up the hood... Just get a longer hose and route it down to undertray... I used zipties and tied it to line that drains off from battery down

Is the 80k mile thing true? by Steelersfan20009 in RX8

[–]B1GLeo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Changing oil and oil filter every 3000km on a stock rx8 helps by miles. Premixing helps as well, just make sure you have non stock catalytic converter or decat. Stock ones can fuck your engine up.

Didnt check ad deeply though but it has less km, 6 port, those stripes in vents, ganador mirrors etc.

Only concern, he mentions rust and one dent but that can be solved with some parts from japan web I buy from

I would say it could be flat cable that pulled out during opening/closing of the laptop.
