I'll just live with it, money is tight anyway. I'll wait until they tell me the struts need to be replaced

Thanks, it hasn't dropped any further since then and is still above thr max level (they put in a little extra so I could tell if it dropped). I'm still going in tomorrow to get the hose replaced, I can live with $130 and it is one less thing to worry about I'm wondering if and when I have to get...

If I have to get the steering rack replaced I was wondering if I should get my front struts replaced at the same time, they are the originals. I'm thinking maybe they would charge less for labor since they have to drop the steering rack

I bought steering fluid to keep in my trunk, hopefully it is the right one for my car. NAPA looked it up Royal Purple Max EZ Power Steering Fluid

I sent the pics to another service place to see what they say, I'll bring it in if they want me to. I am going to check the levels every few days and keep a bottle of steering fluid in my trunk

They have always been very honest with me and have never pushed me into any repairs. They also sent me two pics with my inspection report. What do you think?

I was told today that I have a steering rack leak and the only fix is to replace the rack. How much should this cost and my steering doesn't feel any different, wouldn't it feel worse in some way? They said between a 1 being the least issue and a 3 being the worst it's a 2 Should I just have...

I can't do the stud myself, I'll let the shop do it next oil change, unless you think it should eb done right away. if they had told me while they were doing the 40 pt inspection I'd have told them to go ahead and do it. So far they said the steering fluid is fine but they will check it next oil...

I still don't see anything on the ground after I park overnight so they must be small leaks

Hey all, I brought my 2013 Mazda 3 iSport Automatic Sedan in for an oil change and to replace the rusty lugnuts and they detected a leak possibly coming from the steering rack. They said the power steering fluid level was fine and told me to have them diganosis it next oil change. If the rack is...

I put the Redline in at 1/2 tank yesterday and then filled up. I took it on the freeway and aired it out good. I know it's early and it may be in my head but so far the engine feels peppier. Getting the oil changed tomorrow

Is it OK to add the redline fuel system cleaner to a half full tank? I know they usually recommend adding on a near empty tank but I'm getting my oil changed in 2 days and I heard it is best to add the fuel cleaner before an oil change. Not sure if that is true or not?

Then I read comments from people with DI engines who say the Redline made a difference. As long as it won't hurt anything I figure the $15 spent won't bother me. I'm curious I guess

I emailed Redline to make sure their product contains PEA and this is their response: Steve, Thank you for contacting Red Line Oil, yes the SI-1 contains PEA and is absolutely safe for use in both of your Mazda fuel systems. Regards,

I'll give it a go and see if I notice a difference. Mazda wants us to use their brand carbon cleaner but I doubt it's any better than Redline
