So i got this code up here in Canada and they told me they will try shaving down the IM before installing any new parts. They said that if this doesnt work then they will try to get the part. They said the part is in such high demand that it will take so long to get this is best.

I did some searching and found from others that this really isnt a cure but a temporary fix is this true? Is this a recall yet "officially"?
 
lol~ I don't see why anyone would flame you.

I hope your dealership will straighten out the issue correctly the first time. *^_^*
 
the TSB for this came out late last week
TSB states that under no circumstances should the original part be modified but instead replaced with the updated one
 
HOW soon you guys gettign this code, and how many miles!
i have 1400 miles and have not had a problem yet for anything.

so wonderign if its later in milage, or just lucky?
 
I ran into this problem at around 900 miles and the dealer made the modification provided by Mazda. I got a CEL again at around 1400 miles, and was also told that the part won't be available for a while (2 weeks was what I was told).
 
It only happens when its cold outside.. so if its NEVER cold at night or in the morning where you live you most likely won't ever see it.
 
got ya. i think the coldest it has been here is 30 in the middle of the night!
So i probably shoudlnt have a problem with this?

No way Hugh, this has only been happening to the Northern states guys so far... I've been keeping track (evil) I have 1200 w/ no CEL

Well i'm in Mississippi and I have this CEL so your keeping track of just got a lot bigger :)

When it warms up it goes away for me.. but, when it dips into the 30's or 20's it comes back on.
 
Can i find somehwere online from Mazda that officially says this is being resolved and what to do????
 
Hmmm, you should try another dealership. I took my car to the one where I bought it on a Friday, they ordered the part, it was in on Monday and I had it installed on Tues.
