    Wheel Bearings/Hubs

    Just putting a feeler out there to see who has done them already on their 2 and what the experience was like? I've got over 130k miles on mine now and something tells me they may be on the menu soon. I hit 80mph+ on the daily on my DC Metro commute everyday and i'd prefer to get ahead of any...

    Where did everybody go?

    I've been kinda MIA for a few months, but I do check back from time to time. I still have the Mz2, its paid off at about 130k miles and I have zero intention of getting rid of it. But as I go through here and check the old vendors websites it seems like the 2 has been forgotten lol. I mean come...

    I've had the oddest issue with my OEM radio recently... any ideas?

    So the other day I walked out of work, started the car and no matter what I changed the volume to or the station/track the radio would not play any noise. It still showed on the screen as normal, just no sound. It worked fine when I turned the car off earlier that day as well. So I go outside to...

    CEL and what could be the cause/solution

    Ok so the CEL came on for the first time in 70k miles. I scanned and it and its comes up as: P0451: Evaporation Emission Control System Pressure Sensor Range/Performance At first I assume its the gas cap. Re-tighten and clear the code. Back on next day. I then fill the tank with 93 just for...

    Powerstop?

    Anyone use the drilled/slotted Powerstop rotors and ceramic pads yet? My DD might need brakes by spring and don't really have any experience with anything but OEM and Brembo stuff.

    Got a weird noise that I can't figure out

    Ok, so for the past few weeks i've been hearing a popping noise in the rear driver side of my 2. It's much more noticeable when I go over bumps at low speed. I've inspected the rear suspension and exhaust and don't see anything out of the ordinary. Today when I had myself and 2 other guys in the...

    Camber bolt install tonight, quick question

    Ok so I have the Eibach camber bolts now and I have an alignment scheduled for Saturday. When I throw these things in tonight should I just max out the positive camber and see how it looks? I have it dropped on HRs btw.

    Well my other "Mazda" is no longer a lawn gnome

    So I put tags back on her this weekend and cleaned her up a bit. She's been in a state of neglect for 2 years, and now that I have a Mazda2 to play with it was only gonna get worse lol.

    So something crazy happened this morning

    There were three 2's all next to each other on the highway... Mine, silver and a black one. Then when I got off the exit I pulled up next to a green one. And when I got to work there was another green one and another white one. Lots of 2's in this part of MD now I guess lol. Mine was the only...

    Mach 1 Lip

    Anyone ever give it a try? It's a pretty clean look and about a billions times better than the Home Depot lip you see rubbin speed bumps around town lol. I have one on my PGT and it was a pretty easy install and only cost about $100. I keep hearing about the Seat lip from the UK guys and this...
