I went to mazda and finally had my turbo replaced....AGAIN. But anyway they even noticed the squeaky noise.

1. Are we suppose to pay for the bushings? I thought there was a recall on these....

2. My LSD has snapped in the past.....Do any of you think it is because our front motor mount was designed for power wheels?

1. Should be free if you're under warranty.

2. Que?

Just an idea.....i hear engine mounts help prevent wheel hop.....my mount was supposively cracked when my LSD went out....get what i am saying? I think mazda placed shitty motor mounts on our speeds so that we would have to get our lsd replaced later on down the road....it is not a cheap part.....luckly for me i have 100000 mile warranty :)

i also read that when people replace their FMM they have trouble with with a winding in their first gear? What is the deal with that....i would like to get one but i hear it shakes the hell out of your car when the ac and lights are on at idle and start up....

THis make sense on many levels, IMO...If your changing one, you change them both.
If not, I believe you could encounter some problems down the road.

yea that is the thread i read earlier.....i think that the main reason why everyones shafts are snapping is because of the motor mounts in our car.......it just makes sense....hard launches...bouncy engine....wheels hop.....snaps lsd.....

Why would you have to replace both?
