Hello has anyone else had this issue? Driving along, and then it feels like the clutch pedal just "falls down" is is sticky in the depressed state. You can kick it back up to keep driving but it doesn't seem right. Looks like in general folks have bled their fluids, or its generally a...

Hey all, my car just got a lot meaner and groans when accelerating. The shop said the pipe connected to the turbo has a hole in it. Do I need to replace this (they said it was cast iron) or should I try a gasket first? If I were to replace this, where can I buy the part?

Hey guys, just wondering if anyone else has experienced this - when putting in the key, and turning the key, there is a delay before it starts to crank. As long as it cranks, it always starts, but often times there is at least a 2-3 second delay. Any guesses on what this can be/ what the fix it...

Hi all - hoping someone can help me with some ideas. All I have modded is an Injen intake. After heavy acceleration (WOT here you can hear the turkey) if I throw the car to neutral, the RPMs will drop down to 0 where it may/may not stall out. Any ideas on what to look for? TIA!

Hi all, all is good in the world - but recently I did a hard run (rare) Thursday night, and on the following day to work on Friday, going to and from work, I heard this thrashing/metal scratching noise up front. Any idea what it could be? Oil levels are ok Turned on/off AC, still...

Really simple question - what do I need to hook up my Droid to my car's audio system? At first I thought I could use a male-male mini 3.5mm cable, but after reading a bit, it looks like I need this instead...

Hi all, Can anyone point me in the right direction in terms of replacing the power steering fluid? From what I hear, I can suck some up from the top, then for the rest, I can pull a hose (not sure which one), and then start pouring in new fluid until all the old has been flushed. Thanks in...

Hey guys, Drove my MSP kinda hard yesterday, and then late in the evening/ today I realized that from 500-2000 RPMS if I WOT or give it too much throttle, I get some crazy studdering / hesitation that jolts and shakes the car. At one point during idle, the car started to studder, as the rpms...

Hi all, Usually my temp gauge is just under the half way point... just today and yday I noticed in hot summer days its been at the 75-80% mark. I added some coolant and it still happens. Noticed this yday afternoon when I was trying to blast my A/C (maxed out) and nothing but hot air was...

Hey guys - was wondering if you guys have any input in regards to my funny idle: + When the car is cold, it'll stay around 800-1000 (normal) + When the car warms up, say at a traffic light, it'll fall to 500rpm. + When the car is moving, and I put it in neutral to let it glide, it holds 800rpm...

Hello guys, So I'm trying to replace my spark plug wires and I just received my order today. I thought the NGK spark plug wire kit (Stock #5659, Part# RC-ZE76) would come with 4 spark plug wires. It only came with two wires, with the longer wire marked as "1" and the shorter wire marked as...

I've got a lot of squeaking going on under the hood due to my Injen CAI. Seems like its rubbing on some hoses and bumping into the fan, which is causing annoying creaking / squeaking noises while driving. Do you guys have the same problem with the CAI piping rubbing against hoses and/or the IC...

Hey guys, I purchased some Radiohead lawn tickets (for $52 at ticketmaster) and didn't realize it would be mothers day. I would love it if someone could pick this up from me, for $50. This is less than face value. I have 4 tickets. Let me know!! Help a brother out. (yippy)

Hey Mazda Community, My fluids are looking pretty dark. How do I flush / change the power steering fluid? The ghetto way that I can think of, is to get something equivalent of a super-sized eye dropper, and suck out some of the old gunk, then add in new, and repeat until the color is what it...
