I told you I could 'get' some for you (not condoning illegal activity...). Actually, I'll post a link for you of a large reseller, once I re-dig it up. /j |

I Called K&N today after checking thier web site. They are not currently making an filter for the 3.0l |
|
| It's the same filter as the 2000-2001. Don't let them tell you otherwise. | |
| Are you sure? They said 2002 MPV, 2.5l engine, which is why I shied away. | |

My 2002 ES has less than 500 miles on it. Second day home, the check engine light went on. Back to dealer. Said it was the gas cap and reset the light. They filled the tank for me (again). The next day, the light comes on again. The cap is on tight and I've still never filled the tank myself. I don't want to get into a pattern of taking back to the dealer for this. If the problem is still the gas cap, will it eventually reset itself? I'd appreciate any experience with this problem. Only blemish in an otherwise good new vehicle experience. CJP |

| If you go to Mazda, they will give you the same filter for the 2.5 as they will for the 3.0. Feel free to call a local dealer and verify. | |

I've been having the following problem with the transmission in my 2002 MPV LX. The overdrive off light comes on without any reason. When this happens, the rectangle around the gear designation letter disappears. Moving the lever into park and back into drive fixes this but I have to stop to do this obviously. The bigger problem is hesitation when moving from complete stop when waiting for a light to change, for example. It sometimes takes 2-3 seconds before the car moves. Lastly, the car will not move at all unless the lever is moved into park and back into drive. The rpms go up but nothing happens. When I first took my MPV to the dealer, there was no communications between the transmission module and diagnostic equipment. The module has been since replaced and I at first transmission shifted more smoothly but the problems have returned. I'm looking for anybody else out there with similar problems so I can talk to the dealer more intelligently because the problem is hard to reproduce during a 15-minute test drive. |

| I have never heard of overdrive light coming on before. However the hesitation could be due to a misfire. Some owners reported this problem. Usually it's fixed by installing new spark plugs and/or cables. Could be worth trying... | |
