    Shouldn't product "feeler" threads be setup with polling? +1 ... I'd be interested in the vent-pod

    New Bose Stereo Problems

    Backorder here too. Finally took my MS3 in to get serviced and the dealer was aware of the stereo issue. He told me they would pull my unit to get serial and then order a replacement, but that there is a backorder and could take over a month to get.

    gun metal rx8 rims

    Looking to powder coat my RX-8's. Was going to Gunmetal them, but now am thinking more a factory type hyper silver. I like the look of Acura TL 18" Sparkle Silver wheels. Oh yeah... your wheels are looking good.

    No Mazda TSB ECU flash for me?!

    Yes, so far my local dealer has been pretty suck-ass to deal with, and they haven't even had my car yet. But they're the only one in 120 miles. This is fact... Mazda USA and the local dealer tried drilling it in my head. But it does not serve the customer well, when the only place to find out...

    Recall and TSB information

    Spot on right there. I have an appointment on Monday to do the trans fluid replacement (to Amsoil), the Bose stereo issue, rattling from forward dash area near windshield, and the printed out TSB for reflash. Here's how I see it, at minimum they're going to charge me for the labor on trans...

    Purchasing my MS3 in a few weeks

    IMHO... don't waste money on Navi. Having owned 2 other Navi vehicles, it's really not worth the extra money. Especially with the display and control placement in the MS3. They would have done better to integrate the display, controls, and audio deck into one dash unit (touchscreen) like just...

    No Mazda TSB ECU flash for me?!

    Hope he has better luck... called my local dealer again and was told that I should bring it in to find out. Yeah, right. And get charged 99 buck plus surcharges and tax for them to do nothing.

    Dammit! paint chips on hood

    Hmmm... 769.85 before shipping for a full Xpel/ClearBra kit (Hood, Fender, Mirror, Upper Bumper, and Lower Bumper). Then you have to find someone to apply it. That must be some good s***. So I found an Xpel cutter/installer and he'll do it all for just under $1k. And he does Llumar or...

    Recall and TSB information

    Okay, so I just completed a 28 minute call with a Mazda Customer Assistance Specialist (800-222-5500) regarding any recalls or TSB's for my MS3. No recalls, but they can't tell me if there are any TSB's because they don't have access to technical data. According to them, TSB data is not public...

    Metro Grey or Crystal White Pearl?

    I kinda like the white, but maybe I'm bias. ;)

    License plate frames

    Funny you mention that... I just came across the Mazdaspeed license plate frame on one of the sponsor sites. Apart from looking redundant (Mazdaspeed text) and carbon fiber "look", it looks like an option. I may end up going for the brass/steel black powder coated ones I found. Plastic would...

    Eng. oil and transmission oil

    Could someone post the link where this Pennzoil Platinum information is being reported? Preferably with the DISI inclusion. I just ordered Amsoil motor and tranny fluids, but would like to review DISI specific UOA's regarding Pennzoil. Thanks.

    Eng. oil and transmission oil

    I'm guessing you're going to get Amsoil as the common response. Though I'm curious to see myself, I'm at 568 and looking to do the oil and tranny fluid changeout at 1k.

    License plate frames

    Okay, ridiculous post asking about license plate frames. So that said... I'm looking for a black two-hole plastic license plate frame w/lower plate stays (that hold the lower part of the plate in place). I don't understand why it's so hard to find. I can find brass or steel ones, but I don't...

    Who primes before they start?

    +1 for someone who primes. I dunno, guess it stuck over the years. Whether it be for fuel pumps, aftermarket ignition systems, or diesel engines.

    MX-5 17X7J alloys?

    I'm looking to prep for this coming winter and would like to buy a set of 17's. Not one for aftermarket wheels, I wanted to know if the MX-5 17x7 alloys will fit out car and what offset they are compared to the MS3 stockers.
