Hi, I am thinking of buying the latest model Miata. I have read a bunch of reviews and have not heard one negative thing. Before seeing a dealer I have a few questions: 1) is it a great car? :) I plan on getting the higher trim with 6 speed, I will drive it alot, but pretty much get split...

The Dealers in the Seattle area just received their first supply of the new models. I didn't care for the color combination of blue exterior with a pumpkin interior. The top when retracted doesn't destroy the usefulness of the trunk. It take about 12 seconds to open or close (not as fast as my...

A friend has a 94 Miata that pops out of fifth gear. Any suggestions on a fix? Thanks in advance.

I just picked up a 1990 miat for my daughter. About a week ago I noticed the power windows and a/c fan would not work. The they started working. I noticed if they are inop and I wiggle the ingintion key (with car running) they start working. I suspect teh ignition switch contacts are worn. Does my...

Hi everyone -- I'm a newbie here; never owned a Miata before. Lately I've gotten interested in buying a 2-seat roadster and I found a 1990 for sale in (what looks like) good shape. The seller (a car salesman himself) wants $7500 Canadian obo + $1500 for an accessory hard top. I took it for a test...

I've been hearing some occasional noise from the front right and this weekend took some time to figure out what it is. After taking off the front right tire, at first I noticed that the 4 wheel posts were loose relative to the rotor, but after trying to move the rotor, the rotor itself wiggles...

How do we remove the drive and altenator belts on a 1993 Mazda Protege. We have tried and can't get them off.

I have a '90 Miata with a 1.6, I have only had it for about a month, I have started driving it on a regular basis to work and noticed a shimmy feeling in the car, I took it and had the wheels balanced and rotated over the weekend, but as I was coming in to work today, I noticed the shimming is...

Man put on new fuel ftr and pump says it swings over fast . I told him sounds like timing belt. is this a non interfering head?

I've got a completely stock '97 Miata (except for having upgraded the 14" steel wheels to lighter 15" Kosei wheels) that I'm thinking of making a little more fun. I'm pretty much just a daily driver, stuck with driving in city traffic. I occasionally get a chance to escape to some hilly...

Anyone ready for a discount Mazda? Posted on a local list: Mazda News Release: September 12, 2006 No Mazda Vehicles on Car-Carrying Vessel Cougar Ace will be Sold as New Vehicles

It's starting to sound like I've got a woofer problem in the sound system of my '91. I peeled back the headrest on the driver's side to expose the two small speakers there, both identical in size. Are these woofers or tweeters or both? If tweeters, are the woofers in the door panels? Any...

I overfilled my 1.6, the oil level was down to the add mark and without thinking I dumped in a quart. Checking it cold shows I should have added only about 1/2 quart. Is this going to hurt anything? I wouldn't worry about it in most cars but the sump is fairly small..... I've driven it a...

Is a 1996 Mazda Miata one of those zero clearance cars where if the timing belt breaks it will do damage to the rods / pistons? Is anyone aware of that? I was told by a friend that certain cars (and he called them zero clearance) will do damage to the rods / cylinders if you don't change...

Folks, I went to the Fumoto web site and believe I picked out the correct valve for my '03 Miata. I think there are pictures/graphics showing the products, but I can't see them do to the fact that I'm blind. I was wondering if one of you could verify my selection? Product Code: Mazda F106N(2)

Hi, One of my wheel is bent and unavailable to balance. I can feel the "65 shimmy" but the shimmy is not that big. Top up -> more shimmy Top down -> less shimmy In this case do I have to replace the wheel right away? Somebody says that the suspension may get screwed if I don't fix it. Thanks,
