that's good that they did it even with the fmic peaking up front. I have a dp and i plan on hiding it with customized heat shields before i'll get it reflashed to keep the warranty nazis at bay. Should i install my stock wheels with the tpms in it so the reflash can be done? I heard all sensors have to be in the car for any reflash to be done.

yeah seriously. i hate dealerships. anyways. i got it done today as well today. I honestly don't really know. at time my butt dyno is saying yeah it pulls harder which i think it does and then i just second guess myself. anywho, seems like less soot buildup though. Anyone else notice that?

Hmm... Less soot would be nice.
As far as more power...hell, I can't even tell if mods give more power anymore. Once you reach a certain level...5-10-15 HP won't be felt...its all wheel spin...(burnout)(lol2)

Yeah I don't really see the point in adding a bigger turbo on this car.
I love this car but come on.. It's FWD
i have my winter rims on (no tpms) and got the re-flash done today so don't worry about tpms - it doesn't matter

So if you don't have a powertrain warranty, does that mean they don't cover recalls?

For those of you that had the reflash done, did you have the listed symptoms/issues listed in the TSB?

That's because they can't get paid by Mazda since there wasnt anything actually done to the car. If you would have said I had a check engine light and it went away then they could do the reflash.

Well so far so good, nothing really noticable. Everything seems to be fine... Knock on wood.

Well, I am not sure, car tends to pull a tad harder. For the rough idle, it seems to have dissipated somewhat. The only thing I can feel now is the exhaust b/c of the 88 duro rear engine mount. But, the cold start hesitations, I will have to give more time. Its only been a day. But I can say, the car started this morning with no probs...
