woah, shitty, but good thing u have warranty.

Camber kits make it more diffficult fot align because you have an added variable over stock alignment.
Make sure you have mechanic that knows what they are doing.
or you will be buying new tires in the next 10,000kms

kornsined · 10-21-2004

What year is it? kms? a stick shift?

ASIANPRIDE · 10-21-2004

01,83k,mt

Yeah we what other places in town will do my allignment with a camber kit...? Well what places can get my car off the ground and onto the hoiste without scratching my kit...

MrWong · 10-21-2004

Laurence, I would recommend Yellowhead Honda they did my alignment with my suspension with camber kits I also have a oem kit on my car.

My only beef was I had to take it back because the steering wheel was not centered.

Also what was wrong with your tranny?

kornsined · 10-21-2004

very shitty to hear.....it's always been rumoured here on the forum that the trannys suck..

Blown · 10-21-2004

Mine did. It used to pop out of 2nd gear and grind when you tried to put it back into gear regardless if you were stopped with the clutch in.

kornsined · 10-22-2004

yeah i've noticed mine will pop out of first when switching into second. you can fell it push against your hand.

ASIANPRIDE · 10-26-2004

Well FYI on the car....I got it in at ALBERTA HONDA....today and I got myself a nice lil AUTO 2003 4dr in blue....and well tonight I think I will do some tray sliding...and then post the vids....l8rs...

ASIANPRIDE · 10-28-2004

Well FYI I got a tranny overhaul and my bearings and pins replaced...And now my car runs wicked.....yay....thank you extended 5 year waranty..NO CHARGE for the work done.........

Blown · 10-28-2004

Seriously man.... Honda rocks, Mazda sucks.

MrWong · 10-28-2004

wow i never bought the extended warrenty, i guess the cost of that tranny repair paid for half if not not more of your extended warrenty.

Blown, don't you drive a Mazda? Why you knockin on it? Or are you being sarcastic

Blown · 10-29-2004

MrWong - Lets just say 2.5L oil in 600km is not serious enough of a problem to them.

Blown · 10-29-2004

Don't get me wrong, I love my Mazda but Honda service is so much better!

MrWong · 10-29-2004

are you saying you are buring 2.5L worth of oil in 600 km?

Blown · 10-29-2004

MrWong - Yeah. All documented at the dealership too.

MrWong · 10-29-2004

That is shitty, damn man...I dunno what to say.

NitehawkVTEC · 11-02-2004

Keith, how do you keep having bad luck with Econobox's? I liked your mazda too.

Blown · 11-02-2004

I hope I get a brand new motor out of this.

Blown · 11-02-2004

And then I think I am going to turn around and sell it.

MrWong · 11-02-2004

Is you motor fux0red too Keith? Damn man....

Blown · 11-02-2004

It's usually cheaper to replace the motor than it is to rebuild it.

MrWong · 11-02-2004

I would take this problem to the bbb or call the troubleshooter. Some negative publicity might help them change their mind.

Blown · 11-02-2004

I am going to follow their policy. I will take it in 3 more times and if nothing is being fixed from there, I will take it up with Mazda Canada myself. There is even mediation services available for these such issues. If all else fails, I would use them.

kornsined · 11-02-2004

WTF? that sucks ass ..... good luck with the battle

ASIANPRIDE · 11-03-2004

Man they better look at ur motor....because having it die on you while ur driving = pain in the ass.....well hurry and take it back 3 more times....or wait..take it to honda and get them to do a swap under warranty....it might just work....they don't seem to ask to many questions...
