    Problem... ECU or Boost?

    I know that on mine, they tried everything else first to no avail. I had checked everything for a vaccum leak and it was all tight. No codes pointed to the EGR. Then a second Mechanic looked at it and stated that he had seen a bad EGR cause the same problem. He tore it all apart and upon...

    Problem... ECU or Boost?

    I just got my car back from the dealer. I had pretty much the same problems that you were having. Stalling, and would not hold an idle to save it's life! On my car it was 2 issues. 1st Vaccum leak due to Faulty EGR Valve. (valve was stuck open so they replaced both the valve and gasket). 2. I...

    MP3, MSP, P5 chips/tuners

    Just an update: Met with Pete and he hooked up to the car and got all of the software off of it. He is going to work on it for a week or 2 and then we will get back together. He is still looking to get together with someone who owns a N/A car.

    MP3, MSP, P5 chips/tuners

    Same Idea, He can tune it for more power if you want to run premium fuel, or can just tune it to run better on regular. Or he can tune it for the turbo kit that you are planning... I replied to your other thread as well. He is looking for a N/A car to test. Sales@fordchip.com

    Which winter tire for MSP?

    Yes, the snowfalls can be infrequent, but the slush sucks. Also the roads get worse than they normally are. I think you will do fine with anything that is a cold weather / winter tire. I have ws 40's (I think it was the predecessor to the ws 50) and this will be their 3rd snow season (Probably...

    Warranty Woes WTF!

    Hey, Thanks for the advise! I read through the manual the other night but was not looking for anything like that. Called the customer service line and asked how to request arbitration. They said that there are instructions in the manual and to send in the request by certified mail. Looks like I...

    Warranty Woes WTF!

    No, Mine is Titanium. Sounds like the exact same thing though. Talking to lawyers this week. I'll post as I get updates. How is it that I can hold the original dealer responsible? Mazda N.A. has no record of it being repaired. My dealership has no record. Carfax is clean. I am thinking...

    Warranty Woes WTF!

    Make them an offer they can't refuse... I like that!(deadhorse Seriously though, I was thinking that the lawyer route might be the way to go. It just seems unbelieveable to me that they would be that unresponsive. Has anyone heard of this kind of crap though? I don't know what burns me...

    Warranty Woes WTF!

    I have a 2003.5 Mazdaspeed Protege that I have had for about 1 1/2 years. Recently I test drove another car (at a subaru dealership) and had them assess the trade in value of my Mazda. When they came back with it they asked me "when the accident happened". I have never been in an accident so I...
