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

I have new rotors and pads on all four corners yet my brakes seem soft. They certainly work, but they don't have the bite that brakes on a new car have. What do I need to replace to get that authoritative bite that braking on a new car has? Master cylinder, new hoses front and rear? ...

Hi All, I hear a rubbing that seems to be coming from the instrument panel. It changes with the car speed, not the engine speed. My thought was that it could be a speedometer cable gone bad but the speedometer registers smoothly and I would think that if the cable was faulty then the...

My second hand '95 came with a defective cigarette lighter and I could not find instructions on how to replace it For what it is worth, here is how I got mine installed. Proceed at your own risk. The part cost $28 from finishlineperformance.com. You probably should study it to see how the metal...

My '95 had pathetic washer nozzles that shot a solid stream of wiper fluid that meant having to waste a lot of fluid to get the windshield clean. Finishlineperformance.com offers a washer jet from a Tribute as an alternative that is a direct fit and is not only better, but also cheaper than the...

I need new front brake pad/rotors soon, but the rear is ok. Is it ok to put Hawk HPS pads on the front with OEM pads in the rear? Any downside to this combination? Many thanks.

I have a brake related rubbing sound coming from my rear driver side wheel. It changes with speed and can be suppressed by pulling on the emergency brake so it is definitely is coming from the rear. I had thought I my two year / 15k mile rotor might have become warped so I installed new rear...

I have noticed a patch of rust forming on the lower panel just forward of the rear wheel well. Any insight on how a big deal this is, if it is indicative of a larger problem, and about how much it might cost to get repaired would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. '95 Triple Black

I have an intermittent 'check engine' light. It came on for about a half hour in the middle of 3 hour drive. It was out well before the engine was stopped and turning the key back on to accessory did not result in an error code flashed by the check engine light (per miata.net it should on this...

I removed my temporary spare from the trunk the other day and found a pretty large void behind it. Can this space somehow be used to store the jack? Are there other creative uses that people have come up with to take advantage of that space? Thanks. 95 Triple Black

I need a jack and lug wrench for my 95 tripple black. Does anyone happen to know if other model Mazda's jacks will work? I don't see any Miata specific stuff on ebay, but there is a 95 Millennia, and a 94 MX-3 jack that look awfully similar. Thank you!

Nice new Mazda site for te 2006 that is worth a look... http://bethecar.com And Mazda is on tour to a few cities where registrants can get behind the wheel of a new Miata on a closed track... sweet. https://www.zoomzoomlive.com/ (takes a while to completley load).

I am looking for a new set of wheels and tires for my '95 and can't find any OEM one locally for a reasonable price. I don't really care if they are 14" or 15" and am planning on putting Falken Ziex's on them or perhaps Bridgestone Traction TA's... Meaning that I am not looking to the ultimate in...

In June 2006 I had the timing belt in my '95 replaced. I assume that they replaced the valve cover gasket as a result. About a year later the valve cove gasket started leaking from the rear; it was tightened and that seem to be all that was needed. In May 2009 I had the valve cover gasket...
