MV-5

Great. and Congrats!. you will love its handling. I would like to share one of my experience since it is applicable for your situation. sometimes "electrical path" related misfires will be temporally disappear once plug has been cleaned or replaced. this action will reduce the resistance through the air gap in plug tip. but latter it will increase the resistance and the problem might appear. (i wish that fix is permanent ) if you notice the misfire again after few hundred Kms , then don't frustrate (Mazda 3 is a reliable car AFAIK). this is just to share my experience.

Good. i suspected about coil packs because i thought that you have already done the basic things like "plugs and wires". By the way, you were going to buy a "familia" hatch, you bought a mazda 3?

i don't know the theory behind this. but misfires related to "electrical path" (plugs, wire,coil,distributor) are noticeable in low RPM but on high demand. misfires related to "fuel path" is noticeable at high RPM also. this what i experienced.

try to check your "coil assembly" (coil pack), remove the engine top cover first and in your garage (at dark, low light) check carefully for "sparks". you may see these "sparks" when you try to accelerate quickly . i think in Mazda 3 you can throttle from engine bay by pulling the cable. sometime you may not see spark but you can hear it(listen very carefully ). this might not be the reason , but this is somewhat common problem if the vehicle hits 100K Km ODO.

@GayanR when you drive at around 2K rpm, up-shift (probably result will be1.5K RMP), then try to accelerate with full throttle position. with these steps if you can reproduce the symptoms most probably it might be "Ignition coil assembly".

once these belt has been replaced, after 2-3 weeks (might be few hundred km), then belt should be adjusted again. anyway i know that this will not help you, but i give you a TIP, turn off the AC first .if you get the noise just after started the engine and then noise gone away after 15-30 seconds(just after this try to turn on headlights , then noise might appear again) , then it is probably Alternator belt. So at least you can eliminate one path :-)

If you accelerated further, you could have brought the vibration to front bumper and then easily could have transferred to next vehicle which was in front of you. then your car will be free of any kind of vibration.

I think it is not the reason. reason is.... lot of beltas are driven by people who don't like to drive (wish if they had a driver). Anyway i am just kidding :-) . no offense.

100Km , in 25 min = 240Km/h if it is 20 min then 300Km/h.

might be non-synchronized clock at IN and OUT toll counters .

problem is "the effort" and whether you would be able to meet your expectations. i have seen an add says that RX7 which is running with Evo 3 engine (http://www.autolanka.com/ad.asp?ID=75231). Anything is possible impossible = possible , but infinite effort,time or cost. if you could explain your real requirement, forum members will definitely help you.

In this "wesak" season "white" cars will be more expensive.

I believe that (just an personal opinion) in near future KIA and Hyundai will do what "SAMSUNG" did against SONY,PANASONIC,JVC,TOSHIBA...................

Yes, now the page is on pending for deletion [This article is being considered for deletion in accordance with Wikipedia's deletion policy.]. anyway , kind of talented author.

CJ5, My hats off to you for your detailed attention.

Old thread, but thanks for shearing this info. may i know sort of facts from a member who works in telecommunication industry (or anyone)? what are the different backbones that has been allocated for our service providers (just like SEA-ME-WE 4 for SLT, probably others might be using that). and band-widths that they have for each and every service provider(Dialog,SLT,Airtel......etc). Thanks!

yeah . but still reg number is WP. .

"ayiooo salli. epa wenawa"

photoshop experts, please start the investigation !, this is impossible

bj5w, try for a svt (engine = ZL-VE) manual.

first step: using a multitester , measure the no load (remove the bulb) voltage , then measure the voltage with load (with the bulb). if the current path has high resistance you can easily find that comparing two readings.

great news! now you would be able to help someone in this community to solve a this kind of problem.keep in touch with AL.cheers!

u took 5 months to replace the Lower arm bush?

Mr Wijesingha. You are the one that I am looking for. I have an good innovative idea. Near future this product will totally replace the “Alternator”. It is so simple; this product contains a set of microphones. Those microphones grab the engine sound and will generate electrical signal, there is small unit which is capable to step up and rectify and stabilize the output voltage from microphones, and then it can be used to recharge the car battery. since aircraft produced huge sound this is ideal for aircrafts. Then you may introduce me to this aircraft engineer. Then this is really a fuel saver, that’s why I posted this under this topic. Thanks Mr Wijesingha

mate, just try to do a small test. recreate the problem first, now you know that cabin is warm enough and AC should work, but it doesn't. open all windows and drive and try to see that whether it starts after 15 -20 secs.???
