hey guyd and gals
just got the mps back from a 60k service
I had complained about the starter motor being noisy.
It started the motor and then seemed as though it did not disengage for a few seconds. It made very embarrassing noises.
Answer for the dealer - Found rattle from engine timing cover area suspect variable valve actuator.
More comment - Mazda has issued a tech bulletin about this problem affecting all the turbo 2.3 cars ( 3, 6 and the cx? )
is anyone aware of this ?
Bottom line is my dealer is negotiating with Mazda to get mine fixed under warranty ( even though mine expired 3 months ago )
