I was sure Arizona would rank much worse than Californicate! I'm not surprised that New York has the worst drivers per GMAC insurance. Take the test yourself he http://nationaldriverstest.com/ State Rankings for best/worst drivers: Note: Many states tied for the same position in the rankings.

Hi all, My electric windows are slowing down so I think I'll grease the runners. Is it ok to use WD40? I think the main consideration is whether it's likely to get into anywhere electrical and short it out of it conducts electricity; does it, does anyone know? (Conduct electricity, that...

My 1989 GXL engine, replaced with factory rebuild at 108,000 went belly up(june 20, 2005) on the freeway due to water pump failure ansubsequent overheat before I could safely stop. The garage elected to retain the original WP at the time of the swap (Feb 2002), which I agrred to with reluctance at...

My '97 with 105K is leaking coolant from the front of the engine. Looks to me it's probably the water pump and it probably needs to be replaced. Does this sound probable? I looked on the Garage section of Miata.net and found that replacing the pump also requires replacing the timing belt so, at...

I am having a tough time replacing my leaking water pump. Per the directions, the timing belt has to be removed, which can be removed until the crank shaft pulley has been removed. After 2 days of trying - I can't get the crank shaft pulley off. Has anyone ever replaced the water pump without...

I recently did a timing belt replacement, and did the water pump at the same time. Everything worked fine, but after about 10 miles, the water pump flange o-ring started leaking like crazy. I thought it was on ok when I pushed the flange on, but now I can see it is hanging out of the groove a...

Today I cleaned Bozo's trunk. First time I did it, and yes, it was needed. I always assumed the trunk would stay clean enough, since it is normally closed. So far for that idea. I guess all that black dirt and grime should have given me an idea, but I really only discovered the problem from...

Inside my 1991 Miata, the water literally pours onto the rug on the passenger side when the A/C is on. I turn off the A/C and no water problem. Should I assume that the hose has become loose inside and to get it from the interior? Also, should I dismantle the glove compartment. I see two screws at...

i saw the message posted regarding water in car. i was about to use the information provided by chris and it dawned on me, should i remove the rubber tube from the black box or remove from the other end. if i remove from the black box, how do i reattach it? will i need to take the entire dash out...

We recently had some torrential rains after which I discovered that there was some water in my trunk. The trunk seal looks pretty good so I don't think that is the problem. Could it mean that I have a rain rail problem? As always, any insight is much appreciated. '95 triple black

There have been a few torrential rains in the area recently. After the rain storms, there was a substantial puddle under the passenger seat of our 2006 MX-5. Where could it be getting in? It *seems* the water is coming from under the bulkhead behind the seat. Yes - the top was up!

Can anyone please help me...I have a peugeot 206 and have realised there is water in my oil...i have flushed the water out and there is also alot oil in the radiator...there is no evidence of water in the oil.....

We are having record* amounts of rain here in Denmark and unfortunately a portion of that is finding it's way into the boot of my 1999 Miata! The whole boot is damp and some of the carpeting is wet plus there is enough water under the spare that it makes sense drain it by use of the drain...

Washed my 91 Miata and then took it our. There was a lot of water in the passenger side. As I drove, water kept coming from under dash. Any ideas?

I got some hard grit on the bottom of my fender. I don't want to discolor or scratch the surface getting it off. Is there a strong, yet paint safe, solution that will get this stuff off? How about those Orange Citrus cleaning liquid products (e/g/ Citru-Solv)?

Just bought a new Miata Speed and was wondering what modifications Mazda allows without voiding the warranty. Mainly exhaust, intake, intercooler, cpu. Does anyone know where I might find an official document? Thanks

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...
