    A. Firstly connect the battery :-P wind the windows up and hold the switch for about 5-10 seconds. It should fix the issue.
    You will also notice that all your personal settings such as radio channels, seat settings are changed and you need to set them again..

    Search Part : Ryco Oil Filter | Z632 Oil Filter | MAZDA MAZDA3 :: Ryco Filters :: Automotive Filters Australia

    Pick them up from Supercheap for $11.50 and always available.
    Ryco Oil Filter - Z632 - Supercheap Auto Australia

    Looked at buying from the US but couldnt wait and no savings dollar wise.

    Good luck with your search though
    So I went to supercheapauto this morning to get this oil filter but I saw in the catalogue list they had, for the bl mps 09+ the oil filter is R2604P. Is this correct? I ended up buying both that and the Z632 and can return whichever doesn't work

    That filter (R260P) is the cartridge type used in the BK.
    It isn't compatible with a BL. The Z632 is the spin on which is what is needed.
    Luckily you can take it back and swap it for another Z632 filter for your next service

    Here is a question for ya...


    BK JDM and AUDM rear bumper bars are shorter than the USDM rear bumpers.

    However, are All BL rear bumper bars are the same length ??
    I think they are... but want some confirmation maybe?

    This is specifically in relation to Cat back Exhaust btw

    I didn't think the usdm ones were on the BL.

    EDIT: Dont think i have seen fitment issues with the us magnaflow or Cobb systems on the BL ??

    and as said... in relation to a Cat back exhaust. if the USDM bar is longer, and you buy a US rear muffler... the tips will stick out further with the US system on the AUDM rear bar... which doesnt look so nice.

    The post you replied was me saying that I don't think the usdm BL rear bar is longer.

    Yep. You can rock it back and forth slightly. I thought maybe a couple loose bolts. Maybe not

    I think he means the book will tell you where to look on the engine. You are after the VIN, right?

  18. Cool Dyno Tuning for MPS 2010

    Hi, I recently bought a MPS 2010 Luxury and I am looking around to get it Dyno tuned and possibly upgrading the specs. Can anyone recommend a good place to go for this. I live in Brisbane on the southside. I have read people talking about Allstar tuning systems at Brendale but this might be a little to far to go.

    I have also read about the EcuTek tuning systems which sound great.

    If anyone has any information or a good recommendation on who to go to for this it would be greatly appreciated.

    I am loving the MPS, I am just wanting to try and get more out of it. As in reduce the turbo lag and increase the power without doing any major mods.

    Cheers

    Bec get a Cobb ap for tuning and data logging. And use RayD for tune. Great guy and knows his tunes. I'll let the other forums chip in their experiences.

    Plus it's going to be cheaper than dyno tune and pretty cheap for adding additional mods not like dynotunes.

    Hi Bec, All Star's reputation seems to wander depending who you speak too. @CelestialSpool (Bobby) had invested some money with them and came out with what seemed a good result. Now he's gone to a COBB AP. I went straight to an AP, have done etuning and have some really good figures...

    Anyway, we're both on the South Side. I'm Moorooka, Bobby Yeerongapilly. We regularly catch up for coffee before work so if your keen,et us know.

    These are our cars, I'm the red one, best colour, the candy blue is Bobby and the old timer to my right, the RX7, is @70DDD Toddy


    Redbull is DEAD!!

    Long live the Redbull ... V2
