Google Mazda 5 or 3 FSM, you should be able to download the whole manual, which has the color code.

Intake: small bottle of propane with flex hose with bendable wire to guide hose to unreachable places, check in spurts. Exhaust: duct tape vacuum 'air outlet' to exhaust pipe, feel/spray water for leak.

Joys of unknown car ownership. Fortunately brakes are a very simple in how they work. 1) Youtube "How floating calipers work" to educate/empower yourself 2) Looking at FR pads, are both sides wearing evenly or dose one side have more wear? Does the rotor show excess wear? BTW, don't buy...

Not sure how the original part got destroyed like that!?... What you are looking for seems to be sold as part of the strut assembly. It has tight friction fit into the strut base and the OD servers to hold the bottom of the dust boot in place. I have Bilstein B4 replacements, which came...

Props to you for appreciating something different. Being a car tech, I suspect you are practical minded and will be driving this for a while - unless you run out of space. What other project cars are in the stable? Some thoughts: When you redid headlight, why not leave the hood open? Not...

I think this is important to call out. First thing I did was run CPUZ and Geekbench. Note that with the stock build, it is consuming ~2.5 GB memory!.. Android itself takes a chunk of memory and the bloatware makes it worst. Anything less than 4GB (bare min) is shooting yourself in the foot...

@SuperClust I went Janky (sort of)😊. Figure I close this thread with some factual data in a TL: DR update. In short, there are a different variation of PCBs and components that can be spec’d –and YGWYPF still applies. Prices have dropped so I settled on the next best (*cheap*) unit @$140 (stay...

I thought about importing a Nissan Lafesta. It’s the perfect Mazda5 but I’m not sure if it can be registered/insurable in the US. Where are you located? Post your question in the Forscan community, developer(s) do monitor it. Having a full paid version might help too...

Had a low MPG experience but cannot say if this related to your issue. Try replacing the EVAP purge valve; cheap and easily accessible under the hood. Don't know of any EVAP component under the engine. I believe a major leak or clogged EVAP canister triggers CEL and as you stated, that too is...

That is the idea! Pic of solenoids that match up to the FORScan menu/options. I didn't realized there's a secondary valve body with a different "Pressure control solenoid B"! https://worldwidespecialtyparts.com/mazda-fs5a-el-valve-body-2005-up/

Not hard but IIRC you need to remove TB, air filter box, battery box to have full working access if you want to intercept it before the cooler. BUT I think you can just work from the bottom IF you intercept the flow AFTER it comes out of the cooler. TIP, buy a foot or two of transmission hose...

From what I learn, worn torque converter leads to worm clutch, which creates micro ferrous partials. If left unchecked (unchanged), they end up in the trans and clog up check balls/valve bodies, and build up and affect EPC/shift solenoids (electro 'magnetic' switch) function. I think the...
