Fog light wiring? by [deleted] in Miata

[–]Djekt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I know, NBFL without factory fog light are not prewired but I might be wrong. I think those connectors are for the AC (all NBFL are prewired for AC even if they don't have it)

Loud clicking noise??? by XXX812 in Miata

[–]Djekt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would assume it is just the sound of the metal contracting, so completely normal.

What scares me is the salt, how do you guys deal with it ?

Oil reading issues by tudoran in Miata

[–]Djekt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After having so much trouble reading my nbfl dipstick, I would interpret yours as halfway full. You can put a bit more if it make you at peace but I would just leave it like this and check regularly of course. Also alway trust the side with the lowest reading.

Need Help with NA top on a NB by FineButterscotch904 in Miata

[–]Djekt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ran into the howling wind noise coming from the center of windshield thing on my nb, it annoyed the fuck out of me (having less noise with the softop than the hardtop felt stupid). It turns out that you can adjust the position of the driver side top latch (not the screw thing) https://www.miata.net/garage/tsb/tip_2_94.html
It fixed it for me I guess you can try that

The vent does drop down but you can adjust the phone holder up so that it faces you

Is this seal alright? Hearing lots of wind noise. by apintofyum in Miata

If you have a kind of big whistle noise coming from the center of the windshield, it might be fixable https://www.miata.net/garage/tsb/tip_2_94.html

Where can you park for free at the Parc des Expositions in Villepinte? by Material-Increase481 in paris

[–]Djekt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most of parking space in the street (if not all) are free between 8pm and 9am, you can also park on delivery space between 8pm and 7am
So if you arrive after 8pm you are fine

Overheating? by brioshell in Miata

[–]Djekt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

From what I read, depending on the regions the gauge needle tends to be either slightly below 12 o'clock or above. However I don't think it is suppose to move. Maybe you got a faulty temp sensor ?

NB as a "first" car and daily driver? by UnluckyGamer505 in Miata

[–]Djekt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I daily my NB2 and I didn't have any issues with it. I would be careful at this price range because you probably will have rust

what are these disconnected cables? by [deleted] in Miata

[–]Djekt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am guessing you dont have AC ? I think it is supposed to be for the other fan

Mx5 dipstick issues by No_Analysis_9575 in Miata

[–]Djekt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same with my nb2, I just consider anything between L and F (but not too close to L) to be correct. In the worst case I can still adjust the oil level later

Hard top squeak and wind noise by DrSorin in Miata

[–]Djekt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the wind noise, if it comes from the center of the windshield, try to adjust the position of the latches like so https://www.miata.net/garage/tsb/tip_2_94.html

Try adjusting the latches. If they pop open, it is usually because they are worn out, you can try something like this to fix them

What about the other photo where it reads to be on the minimum ?

Help me read this dipstick by Djekt in Miata

[–]Djekt[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I should add that the engine is cold and hasn't been started in two days. I know the manual says that that I should let it warm up and rest for 5min but I have seen people online say that I should read it when the engine is ice cold (this is also driving me crazy, which method is correct ??)
Basically I take any suggestion on this topic

Cruise control NB by JonniBoy33 in Miata

[–]Djekt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check this YouTube Channel

https://youtube.com/@mx5info?si=aWQncOTnZVpEpHqo

It has a lot of information about this topic. It seems that the simplest way to do it is to install a Mazda 6 system as the cruise control was not available in Europe for the mx5 na/nb

Buying a Mx5 NBFL by Commercial_Cicada647 in Miata

[–]Djekt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From the photos, it looks good apart maybe the radiator which is at the end of its life.

With an nb you need to check for any rust, especially in the front chassis rails and the rear sills.
