boils down to: - do you want to own it and do ANYTHING you want to it? - or do you want to rent it and return it in original stock-good condition?

wallyworld, napa, and my local oil changing chain has them for mine (the paper cartridge ones) pennzoil # P2159 is what is in mine now (go figure!) napa # 7203

if someone wants in - a rock or screwdriver through the window would be easier. (boom01)

as has been pointed out "void warranty" is not referring to the whole vehicle warranty but to a specific part that has failed... and, the failure is determined to have been caused by the aftermarket part. and I'd argue that if a wheel hub, ball joint, or some other wheel or suspension...

NOTE: manufacturers and perhaps some dealers do read the different forum sites to see what people do to their vehicles - so it always amuses me to see a sig with a long list of mods done (for bragging) - then have same person whine about warranty issues later!!?? keep a low profile folks!

"Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act" read up on it. http://www.mlmlaw.com/library/guides/ftc/warranties/undermag.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnuson-Moss_Warranty_Act any time I have a dealer threaten me with a "we won't fix it under warranty" comment - I simply (and nicely) asked them to put it...

and what site is this that you are referring to?

ayyayyay ummmm - I understand what WOT means - have driven/owned high perf vehicles for 35 yrs (rofl2) my question is related to: when does the computer switch the AC clutch off??? The pedal is connected to the computer not the throttle (drive-by-wire right?) - soooooooooo, 1/2, 3/4, full...

well then that's why mine sucks - cuz it blows (non-cold air)? (rlaugh) so let's rephrase the question - is it a throttle position or a certain RPM that causes the AC clutch to disengage - and what is it? (ie. full throttle, or 5,500 RPM?) if we knew what is was we could work with it instead...

mine sucks too... dealer said it's working as designed! (flame) has anyone confirmed the compressor clutch/RPM thing on the MS3? (I too had it on another car - but it only disengaged AC clutch at WOT) It would be nice to verify this and know at what RPM the compressor clutch is disengaging...

they can steal it by dragging it down the road or putting it on a flat bed... someone wants it bad enough - it's gone no matter what is in there... I pay monthly insurance so I don't have to worry about it.

might want to look around and get up to date - there have been dozens of postings (and a sticky thread) about this for 2weeks. http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=190

w/ MS CAI and a Garmin Nuvi 660 (rofl)

here is the one I got - off ebay about $20. adjusts from about 3 up to about 10 strobes before going solid http://www.electroflasher.com/Yahoo_Flasher/info.html I am looking for a faster strobe - this is about 1 per second - but works for me till I find a faster one (for the price). otherwise...

aaaah, ok that is a pretty big generalization though as they carry a lot of name brand items in addition to the el-cheapo's. (have not tried the wally brand gas) as I stated - have used costco & sams premium gas for years in my 3 high performance vehicles - never had issues - hence my curiosity...
