Stalling on Hills

[Latashia]

Has anyone had any problems with there 3 stalling while going up hills? Mine has done it 2 times since I bought it in December of '03. My local dealership has had it for 3 days running different types of tests to figure out what the problem is but as of right now they are not sure what the problem is.

Auto or manual?

I'll take a wild guess and say faulty fuel pump.

I had it twice... both in cold whether and stop and go traffic. I found that the idle dropped too low when you ease on the brake and let the car roll back a little and it eventually stalled; it's very hard to reproduce.

I took it to the dealer and they couldn't find any error code, the TCM is up-to-date. They say they "reset" the car to the factory default parameter and since then the stall went away...

Let the dealer know and make sure they advice Mazda NA, a few people on the other board had the same issue and there're still no resolution.

One more thing, let the car warm up a bit during cold start. I found the car run smoother and idle is more stable...
