Could have looked in the Howto section of the forum. Here's my most excellent thread (IMHO) with pics.

Fam, I think you hit the nail on the head with the strut guess. I just went over 140,000 on my '06 3i & all struts need to be replaced. I have cupping on all four tires, & yes a "monster trucking we will go!"

Actually anything above 0.01 (that is ten 1 hundredths of a percent) is unacceptable. Also make sure the power is RMS or Root Mean Square or all channels driven.

Well I have an 06 base 3 5 speed with over 120,000 miles & the clutch feels as tight as ever. I also taught my daughter how to drive a manual & she is the King of clutch riders. It's like they put in the plate for a truck or something. (dance)

Ok this place claims they have the Cobb Short Ram Intake off of backorder & ready for sale. However, is this only for the MAZDASPEED 3 or for regular 3's as well? I have an '06 3i.

Hmmmm I see you live in Roswell. I live in Stockbridge & drive my 06 3 to Smyrna 5 days a week. I bought mine about a week or so after Hurricane Katrina & I hit 100k in this past Dec. It is around 106k as I type.

... when I turn my 06 3i off. It seems like I left a light on or something like that but it is the ignition switch. It just keeps beeping & I can not lock/unlock the doors with the fob. If I pull out the key very sloooooowwwly & make sure the steering wheel is perfectly straight, I can get...

I think it was 95k. I just hit 99 in my 06 & I got the fluid changed just this past weekend. It made a slight but noticeable difference. For 40 bucks why not!?!

Well timing is everthing 2006 Velocity Red 3i at Hennesy Mazda just south of Atlanta I paid 16,600 (put down 10,000 cash) in late Oct of 2005. This is just the base car with the 5 speed manual. They would not come off the price one penny as this was just a few days after Katrina, & there...

Hey thanks. That is what we are all here for, to help each other :D

Hey thanks. I have edited my original post with your info.

I don't think so on our cars.

Ok, I accidently put this in the CX-7 forum. Anywhooo here are some pics of exactly where you can get the VSS (Vehicle Speed Signal) for your Pioneer AVIC-D3 (or if you just have a vss fetish:)) in the Mazda 3 The pin for the vss is in the 24 pin connector behind the instrument cluster. If...

06 31 I got them from eBay but it appears they are no longer available. H11 FOG LIGHT JDM 8500K HID YELLOW XENON BULBS KIT

06 3i Don't know how I missed this thread. Velocity Red manual. Bought a few weeks after Hurricane Katrina with 3 miles. Just turned over 70 a week ago. A huge metal bracket fell off a Fed-Ex truck. Passenger side went airborne when I hit it doing about 80. Jetta in front of me had...
