I brought a genuine mazda mount from a spare parts shop. it costed about $175. It is the gel based mount near driver side of the engine. I do not know the part number. spare parts dealer gave me it by checking the chassis number.

Hi utmorpheus, Thanks for the answer I have replaced the air filter about one month back so that might not be the problem. So I have to take it to a repair center, Do you have an idea about how expensive this repair is going to be?

HI Guys, I'm experiencing a throttle response delay in my mazda 2. when starting to move from a stop, it does not response to accelerator paddle until I push it down bit more than necessary, and then car suddenly jerks off and begin to move. this does not occur when car is moving, but has a...
