not bad!! im doing 28 short run and 31 long run on my Toyota corolla t sport!
and I only use v power on my Toyota, so the mazda wil be the same!

one more thing, I saw somewhere here that the mazda 3 mps have a issue, VVT!
so what exactly is that issue!? is expensive to fix!? can we fix our selfe? and is only that issue!?

the first mod I will do it to my mazda will be the turbo timer!

thanks!!

Disappointed with that mazda, been there, the engine was so dirt that looks like a 4x4! When I start the car the engine light was on! I get away from there faster!

Lets see what I can find!

I would say the black one is worth a look mate, description sounds good, 2 owners from new, full service history all keys and taxed til next year, shame the mileage is a bit high but if its been looked after you shouldnt have any probs but thats not guaranteed unfortunately :thumbs:

If you can get the vin number off the car and then check here, you will see wether its in the affected range or not :thumbs:

Check your VIN against thisSymptom:- When the engine is started, some vehicles may exhibit a variable valve timing noise (loud ticking noise) for approx. 1.5 seconds.Cause:- The lock pin hole of the variable valve timing actuator has been worn out. Heat treatment has been added to around the hole of the variable valve timing rotor lock pin.Affected range:- up to JMZ BK**L* ** 616737Parts:- L3K9-12-4X0B - VVT Hub (only replaced if timing marks do not line up on VVT Hub).

Buy mine! It's black, only has 42K miles, is not in the affected VVTI VIN range and has near on £5000's worth of mods - even comes with all of the standard bits so you can return to standard should you wish :)

Jaz how much you asking for? Lol!

Accept part exchange? Lol

I call the black mazda 3 mps guy, is a trade, he said he accept my corolla t sport for part exchange, he said my corolla worth 700 pounds! so no deal!
So when I see a car, ill try to take the vin number! Anyone knows the year that was affected?

Thanks!
