NA Sticky Exterior Door Handle by
Christopher Muto
My passenger side exterior door handle does not snap back when opened.
It has to be pushed back flush with the door in order for the door to
latch/close properly.
I have tried squirting some WD40 into the latch behind the handle but
that only marginally helped.
If I remove the handle from the...

Magnaflow Bolt On Catalytic Converter? by
Christopher Muto
The heat shield on the catalytic converter on my '95 is rattling and
unless there is a clever fix like the stainless steel hose clamp
solution for the down pipe heat shield I think I need a replacement.
The cheapest bolt on replacement appears to be the Managflow 23696 for
$85 from Performance...

Turns Over but Won't Start by
Christopher Muto
Hi all,
Drove my *automatic* '95 for an hour to a store, parked it, went shopping
for an hour, came out, and the Miata would not start.
It happily cranks but does not start. Noticed that the 'hold' light on the
dash blinks continuously (this is an automatic) and believe that it is
trying to...

if they are any brighter?
Anything that would help safety and visibility is always welcome. Seems
that these might help.

Rear Brakes Rubbing by
Christopher Muto[_1_]
I have a '95 that has what I now consider to be a chronic problem with the
left rear brake rubbing.
When I first got the car I had the rear brakes lubed and reassembled but the
rubbing came back after a couple of months.
I was then sold a set of rear calipers as it was believed that the calipers...

Chuck
I have for sale an almost brand new genuine Mazda chrome/aluminum M2 Fuel
Door. This was a dealer removal from a brand new SE, and then got it and I
put it on my car for about 10 minutes, and then removed it. (Don't like the

Converting to another battery by
Chuck
Converting to a "regular" wet cell lead acid battery is not a good idea,
since the battery is in the trunk. Glass mat batteries with correctly placed
vent connections are available--WESTCO battery makes a commonly used
replacement, as do others.
A conventional wet cell battery would need to be...

Insurance and wrecked Mazdaspeed by
Chuck Aydlette
My 2 month old MS Miata was sandwiched between a Blazer and F150 while
sitting in traffic. The truck slammed my rear and pushed me into the
rear of the Blazer. No injuries, the truck's airbags deployed and
mine did not. Is it possible to get paid for depreciation above the
cost of repairs? It...

Protege turn signals by
cindy
I know this is a Miata group, but maybe someone here knows. I've
noticed some proteges (at least in the 1999 to 2003 models) have what
appears to be a side turn signal light mounted just above the model
sticker on the front fenders, and some don't. Was this a factory
option as part of an option...

Manual for my '03 by
Clark Friedrichs
I have been at several Miata sites this morning, and found on all sites,
"Enthusiasts Manual 1.8."
The problem is the manual covers up to the '97 model year and I have a '03.
Any suggestions?
Thank you.

Flushing radiator? by
Clark Friedrichs
I have an '03, and according to the owners manual, it's time to flush and
refill the radiator.
The dealer wants $120 and Oil Express wants $70. Is there anything I should
know that would help me decide who I want to do the job? For various
reasons I'm not doing it myself.
Thanks
