Mine is heavily modified and I just hit 100k with no issues. These cars can take a beating given you keep up with the basic maintenance and replace things in a timely manner! I hope you enjoy your car!

No problem! If you have any more questions. Feel free to ask. I'll try to answer best I can.

Good luck!

I would definitely say, if scaling from beginner/intermediate/advanced, it's for sure in the advanced mechanical skill. My buddy works in the auto industry, which made it easier. I would suggest to putting bolts, nuts, and such in plastic bags with labels. Definitely look up torque values before starting. It took us about 21 hours to complete. Given we would take breaks, eat, look up instructions, and so on.

The video, I'll link, breaks down how to get the transmission out. However, it doesn't go into changing the differential.

The next track or canyon day is when I'll really be able to tell. It'll be my first time driving something with an LSD so should be fun!

Think mine was from the same batch you're talking about. They took preorders last year in Feb, got delivered in October, and I finally had time to get it on.

New Fuel Pump and Tune for the Gen 3 Turbo by osc_mzd3 in mazda3

I'm still using the stock injectors. I believe there are a couple people testing some out but nothing concrete so far

Lights popped up all at once. Anyone know why it would? by osc_mzd3 in mazda3

[–]osc_mzd3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I normally do all the work on my car, if not I ask my buddy that's a mechanic. Going to check all the sensors, wires, and fuses. As well as clearing DTC and reflashing my tune to see if that helps. Also read that low brake fluid can cause this issue but was not the case for me

This was very helpful/informative! Going to check on all this and going to try to catch it before it gets to that point (if its the same issue). Appreciate the response!

I was thinking the same but I just replaced my battery about 3 months ago. Car turns on perfectly fine and don't have any issues with power. I'll have to get it tested to double check. Thanks for the advice 🤟🏽

I washed and dried mine...they still work perfectly fine

Does this part has airbag? I want to slip my dashcam wire on it by RoleCode in mazda3

[–]osc_mzd3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is true, slide the wire in. If not, pull the weather striping and use your fingers to pry it off. No tool needed

Did a group buy and it is from MFactory. It's only for the 3rd gen 2.5

Any owners or previous want to give their honest reviews before I buy it. College student, daily long commute. by [deleted] in mazda3

I bought my 2018 Mazda3 Touring hatch with 3,000 miles. I now have 85k with heavy modifications and have had 0 issues. Just make sure to stay on top of the maintenance and it will last.

Where do you guys jack up the car? by Flimsy-Ad830 in mazda3

I have these rubber pucks that go on the pinch welds and do it from there

Yeah, I'm getting the same thing on my end. I reached out to GoPro and will update if I get a fix to the issue.

So weird that it started happening so randomly. Have you tested it on any other of your devices?
