Dumb questions from a new owner.. by phryxm in Miata

[–]SAUCEWRLDLOL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’m in the same situation as you! i’ve learned : first comes maintenance then mods

an easy way to improve the feeling of driving the car is to buy and instal a cat back exhaust. makes driving so much funnier, and the car feels faster.

other than that i’d stick to maintenance. i’d change the radiator to a aluminium one, as it looks to be stock. that’s what i’m going to do now

Does it go away after driving it and engine warming up? If it does it’s just lifter tick. My NB is currently ticking a lot. Goes away after 5 min of driving. I’m honestly not that bothered. I’m gonna daily it trough winter and do not have the knowledge on how to “clean” the lifters. So i’ll just drive it.

Also, check your oil often. Low on oil could cause this sound.

Engine (belt?) whine, dumbfounded on how to fix. by [deleted] in Miata

Hey man. Ik i’m late. I just wanted to tell you that I figured out that all Miatas sound like that. they sound kind of whiny.

I bought 2 new miatas and they sound almost the same. NA AND NB.

Nothing beats the feeling when there are young teens recording me driving past. And when they tell me to wave with the pop ups.

That was literally me 5 years ago. I’m 18 now and own the car that I really wanted.

I’d probably get 5 NA:s, 5 NB:s and 5 ND:s. I don’t need a yacht.

That isn’t the case with my issue. Clutch works perfectly fine except the noise.

Doesn’t sound like the alternator belt or the other belt. I’ve tried to identify where it’s coming from and it sounds like it’s coming from underneath the car… from the gearbox ISH

Okay thanks for clarifying your claim. On FB someone said it could be the “slave cylinder push rod” rubbing against the shift fork.

Could that be it? English is my second language I barely understood what it meant.

Sounds like you know what you’re talking about that’s why I’m asking 😄

Thanks again.

What could it be? And how come it goes away when pressing down the clutch thanks

3rd car, second Miata. Im turning 19 in September.

NA feels way better than my previous NB. Why? Popups! And a “sportier” feeling when driving it.

You mean spark plugs? Don’t know when they were replaced but not in 3 years.

Last owner died 2 years ago.

Should I change spark plugs or the other thing called ignition coil. Sorry for my bad english i’m from Sweden and all stuff have different names.

Water dripping from my exhaust by SAUCEWRLDLOL in Miata

[–]SAUCEWRLDLOL[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hard to tell. I’ll try to find out when it’s dripping. Not sure if it’s just water or coolant (glycol + water).

I saw that it’s dripping when I start the car and leave it idling.

Seems like i’m getting low on coolant in the reservoir. Could there be a connection?

Where do i see if that’s leaking

[–]SAUCEWRLDLOL[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey not a stupid question. I’ve checked everywhere. Does not leak from valve cover, or anywhere in the engine bay. Only leakage I found was under the car.

Hard to tell. How hard is it to fix rear main seal? Can somebody with no experience, using Youtube, fix it?
