#3948 of 3969 Re: Mazda 1999 Millenia S Overheating Problem [eejames] by lboogie Aug 21, 2009 (7:24 pm)
Replying to: eejames (Aug 21, 2009 6:57 pm) hey, it could be the water pump going out or the thremostat. no matter mazda going to charge u more for any thing on the s model. i have the 01 and i have problems trying to get it looked at and fix, but i'm like u. u pay a 100 for diagostic and the labor is going to do the rest. and if it's under the timing cover, u would have to change the timing belt also since they got eveything out of the way. all of that i think will be about 2500 with parts and labor and the car we got, a lot of people don't like working on them or don't have anyone that can work on them. i hope that was helpful.

Replying to: lboogie (Aug 21, 2009 7:31 pm) Thanks for the info! I forgot to mention though that they did replace the thermostat. I pray it doesn't cost 2,500 and that maybe it is something simple!   Elizabeth
#3951 of 3969 Engine Noise by 5th_mazda Sep 06, 2009 (7:25 pm)
My 2001 Millenia just starting making an engine noise that when I heard it for the first time sounded like rod/valve train knock or maybe an exhaust leak. The noise only happens when you first start the engine after it has sit (the longer it sits the longer the noise lasts). The noise goes away as you rev the engine up much past 1800-2000 rpm and completely goes away after the first few minutes of driving. I am not sure if cars even have harmonic balancers anymore but sounds just like one of those I had go bad on a 70's Chevy many years ago.
#3952 of 3969 Re: mazda millenia 01 need supercharger or bearing [kiminaro] by 5th_mazda Sep 06, 2009 (7:32 pm)
Replying to: kiminaro (Aug 01, 2009 6:48 am) Did you ever find out what was causing your noise? My post 3951 could be something similar, if not related to the supercharger, as mine is the 2.5. I will let you know if I learn anything as I may bring it in soon. Like this car way too much to let it go on much longer without knowing and risking damage.

Replying to: krumtx (Aug 06, 2009 2:23 pm) hello thx very much for the answer.  you were right about the mechanic. I went to the dealer and they told me it was my catalytic converter. About the noise they said it comes from the supercharger in deed but it is still good for now. Now i am wondering. Can i put a 97 supercharger on my 01 millenia S????   Another thing, my air bag light started flashing and it won't stop. And when i went to the dealer it wasn t flashing anymore. So they did not see anything. ANy ideas??? thx

Replying to: 5th_mazda (Sep 06, 2009 7:32 pm) to 5th mazda, it is the supercharger that makes noise. THey say it hasn't started to take oil yet so it is good until then. Now i am looking for a place where to buy a cheap supercharger that matches my 01 millenia s.

Replying to: amberlyjc (Sep 12, 2009 12:19 pm) I own a 1997 mazda millenia ,it is a 2.5 liter engine with the side way engine..there are two different enginesfor this yr. mazda, I have the larger one. but I have had it for a little over four yrs. now and have had only two times that it needed work of any magnitude and that was to replace the water pump and the other was to replace the main two belts.it has been a jewel of a car and still is.I have 1hundred and fourty-six thousand miles on this car,and still counting,of course I take pretty good care of it and that counts for a lot also.it is fully loaded and it only cost $ 5,243.00 and had 73,426 thousand miles on it at purchase time. all in all I am well pleased with it.
#3957 of 3969 be careful by hawaiianmike Sep 12, 2009 (5:09 pm)
Boy, you must be a risk taker and not risk adverse!!   The Mazda Millenia doesn't have an axle, per se, but has front wheel drive that features 2 transaxles, each going to a ft. wheel, surrounded by struts (like shock absorbers)--I would love to hear how the previous owner determined that it needs an axle---was it in an accident or is this just wear & tear? How many miles on car?? Was the oil clean or black?? Can it be road tested at all or are you going to trust that it doesn't overheat, have bad brakes, etc., etc. Very hard for me to buy a car I can't start cold and drive around in----too many possible problems that can't be diagnosed!!   I'd pass on this trade and look for one w80K mi or so and can be road-tested and/or looked at by a good mechanic (for around $50 and worth every penny!)   Millenia's came as standard (no sunroof, cloth seats and few goodies) or deluxe (sunroof, leather seats, 6-disc CD changer in trunk, lots of creature comforts--make sure rack & pinion steering boot is intact and that NO FLUILDS are leaking---put some cardboard under the car after test drive and wait 10 min, looking for any leaks---is oil clear or black?? Check tire wear--should be even and not just on one edge--stuff like that---GOOD LUCK!!   Aloha, Mike
