Hi guys new to Mazda ownership bought a 2010 (60) Mazda 3 MPs with 29k on the clock
Few little jobs to sort out needs back tires as passanger side is done think a shocker is away which has been causing wheel bounce and it tore up the inside of the tyre.
The previous owner thought it was a wheel bearing as when you do 80 ( on a private road of course) there is a bad wheel bearing noise but it's definitely down to the tyre.
He has changed the wheel bearing and broke the abs sensor connection and electrical taped it onto the abs sensor so will need to try and get a new connector or abs loom. Can you buy a passanger side abs wiring loom or will it be a case of getting the connector from a salvage car and soldering on another plug.
Anyway I'm going on a bit.
Hi guys

Thanks guys never owned a Mazda before,had a mk1 focus rs and a4 before this but the Audi was a terrible car and the focus although I loved it. Parts were getting way too expensive.
The shock absorbers ok looks like it's just the tyre that's buggered.

Thanks mate I have already ordered two Bridgestone potenza tyres getting them fitted at the weekend.
They are already fitted to the front and seem fairly good.
