Thanks for your reply. Mazda just phoned me and said that the warning light on the dash does not appear anymore and they cannot find anything wrong. Therefore if it ever happends again, let them know...
MPS update. So Mazda have done diagnostic tests last Monday. 2 days ago they phoned me and said that they need the car again for another day to do more diagnostic testing to send to Mazda Australia....
All good. Thanks.
Will do, keep you updated. This web page is awesome especially for me being a female and not having much of an understanding on cars. Thanks heaps.

Are you a Mazda dealer...
Thanks again everyone for your help and reply's. I took my MPS to Mazda Blacktown yesterday after complaining for the past 4 tune ups (2 years) about rediculous fuel consumption. After getting...
Ah this makes sense. Thanks very much for explaining this. The more I learn, the more I understand as I thought there was something wrong with the motor. Turns out, it costs a lot of bloody money to...
