i went with 215/45/17

Finlay found the problem all 4 coils were bad. Which is unusual but I guess not impossible.

will 225-45-17 fit on a 17x7 with 48mm offset ona 2006 mazda3 5door no drop? or is it better with 215-50-17

I got the car at the dealer right now getting my second VVT actuator for timing chain installed first one was at 3000 miles and now at 40000 miles. Good thing it is under the power-train warranty because he sad it would cost me about $1100. I did ask him is that a problem with many 2.3 turbos...

I heard a noise from the rear of the car and dropped at the dealer, he just call me and sad that it was a rear left bearing and priced at $550 (unamused) My car has 40,000 on it so I told him what about Power train warranty. He sad he will call me back. What a ripoff if it was some one that...

Well new turbo if I didn't had warranty it would cost me a nice $2700.00

the noise started first when the car was cold, then all the time while driving. Yesterday there was a different noise while under heavy acceleration. More like rattling.

Yes you are right. They Just called me and they will replace the turbo under warranty right now I have 27500 miles chenge oil every 5000 and use mobil 1 I think I will start every 3000.

going to Mazda Dealer tomorrow see what they say. The noise got worst. I hope they can fix it quickly they don't offer a loner car any more, something about the, warranty changed.(rant)

Thanks for the info. I have no time to go to the mec. Same with my when warm then no noise.

thank you guys time to go to the mazda shop.(wrc)

Back to original thread. Yes I know that when the engine is cold the rpm goes up to 2000 rpm. That is not a problem for me. What I hear now that didn't hear before is maybe the bearings in the turbo giving up. There is no loss of power or hesitation. The car has 20000 miles and I don't want to...

sorry what is a cai.?

There is a winy noise from the turbo whent I start the car and it goes away after few min. Any idea. Turbo going bad ? I use Mobil 1 every 5k.(sad2)

Well new winter is here in Chicago and we had temp at -4F to my amazement the car performs perfectly. So I don't know what changed but I drive the car the same way.

Finlay Mazda got back to me, and it is the same old thing they suggested that I go to a different dealer to service my car. (cricket) That will be my next move. But now that the temperatures are getting warmer the problem is going away. I'm just worried that next winter it will be back.

Finely had enough and called Mazda USA costumer service. Talk to a guy that took a report, once the dealer that did all the service calls them back he will see what he can do for me. Will let you guys know what they say when they call me back.

My understanding is that the spark plugs will reach their optimum temp. and the carbon build up will burn off.

Thanks erhayes for the service bulletin. I will go to the dealer next week just printed it out today.

thank you all . This morning had the same problem. Rev the engine to 3000 rpm for about a minuets and the rpm went up to 4000 rpm and after that the car was ok. I kind used what mikey1981 recommended to clear up carbon. I think It still a issue with carbon buildup on the spark plugs. I all ways...
