Original Mazda OEM springs from a 2010 Mazda 3 hatchback. Set includes one pair of front and one pair of rear springs, 4 springs total. No accidents, never driven in snow or salt. Removed at 100,000 miles.

A long time ago, I had a similar problem on one of my older cars. I only noticed smoke from a cold startup, but throughout the day, starting up on a warm engine didn't have the same problem. In a textbook, burning oil smoke is sometimes referred to as blue smoke. In the end they found the...

The sticker is pretty sturdy. Once you get a corner up, just start pulling real slow and the whole thing should be able to come off with out too many problems. I used some 3M adhesive remover I found from Pep Boys.

Does the black make the car any hotter when parked under the sun?

I came across this comic one day: http://xkcd.com/277/ and it reminded me of the reality of our traffic lights; they kinda suck. Granted, I'm sure we've make great progress in optimizing the best solutions for timed traffic lights, but there are just way too many times, when I'm stopped at...

Very cool! Great work!

I'm okay with having a front license plate on my car, but I HATE the idea of drilling into the bumper. Are there any other options to avoid making those two holes in my bumper? I know http://rhoplate.com is one company that provides something, are there any others?

I have the cargo tray. No holes, no drilling needed - just slide the tray right in. Cargo net just clips to hooks on the sides. You can do both yourself and finish in less than a minutes.

Is this sway bar still for sale? Would this not fit on a '99 protege?

Why would it be fine? What's the purpose of having a pressure relief valve if any manufacturer can make a different filter with specifications that are completely outside the OEM specifications?

Can anyone else confirm these 14-18 psi specs? Is anyone else concerned that the K&N HP-1004 pressure relief valve specs at 11-14 psi don't even overlap the Mazda OEM oil filter settings at 14-18 psi? Wouldn't this mean that the K&N oil filter will allow unfiltered oil back into the engine...

I have close to 100K miles on my car. It was time for a timing belt replacement. Dealership would've charged about $700 for parts and labor for timing belt replacement and a new water pump. Dealership would probably bill out 4-5 hours and I would have the car back usually that same day. I...

I agree with Josh and I think I have the same issue. Is pulling the motor mount the only way to tell if the motor mount needs to be replaced? There's gotta be a better way right? I'd rather not to spend $100+ on motor mounts if I'm not completely sure that'll fix the problem. Can someone...

I know MSP's are fast, but gosh that's really fast. Are you driving downhill or something?

Wow, am I the only one that's surprised that Mobil didn't make it into the top tier list or are they under a different name on this list?
