#3960 of 3964 Re: Check engine/TCS OFF lights are ON!! HELP NEEDED!! [cruzmaster11] by satellite34 Nov 01, 2009 (6:36 am)
Replying to: cruzmaster11 (Mar 06, 2007 4:27 pm) IM having sa codes p1521-1522 and miss fire on piston #3, but every time that i put the scanner a new code comes on. But still miss fire on piston #3.   i was wondering if you resolve the problem on those codes and if the gas that we put on the car should be 89plus. Any tip will be appreciate.

Replying to: satellite34 (Nov 01, 2009 6:36 am) First, 89 octane gas is fine, although it would be best if you ran 90+---what I do is run 89 and add an ontane booster/fuel injection cleaner bottle every fill up   I have found that the distributors on these cars frequently go bad---sit down---they cost over $500 to replace!!! I have a used one that is working fine and will sell it for $100---let me know---also have your spark plugs wires checked---seems to be a weak link in Millenia's (I've had 3) so wires are always suspect--   Good luck mike lifeofreillyhawaii.rr.com
#3962 of 3964 Grinding noise by logtrail Nov 07, 2009 (6:00 pm)
1996 Millennia s with 109 k miles. For the past 7 or 8 years (since my extended warrantee expired) I have experienced a grinding sound when I turned on the ignition. I would turn off and then on the ignition and everything ok. This happened about once a month so I put up with it. In the past year it has occurred more frequently so I had the starter motor replaced. All of the teeth on the old one were fine, so the repair shop said it might be the flywheel. I had that replaced (there were a number of teeth that were sheared off. Since then (1 and 1/2 months, the grinding noise has happened twice. mechanic said maybe due to weak battery. I replaced that and yesterday got a grinding sound when I started the car. Any theories out there? other than this, the car is mint.

Replying to: logtrail (Nov 07, 2009 6:00 pm) Wow---you have spent some serious bucks on your car---you must love it----I'm on my third, but never an S--   You didn't mention if you had the oil pan checked for the missing teeth---have to drop the pan as simply changing the oil wouldnt necessarily do the job----the weak battery thing just a rip-off----woulf be careful w/that guy---only things I can think of would be dry bearing somewhere like the S/C'er, but it should happen almost everytime---but pulling the oil pan would be my first idea---aloha, Mike Replies to this message: logtrail (Nov 09, 2009 5:09 pm)

Replying to: hawaiianmike (Nov 08, 2009 2:09 am) hawaiian,      I don't understand the connection between checking the oil pan and a grinding sound sporatically when I turn on the car. As for "the weak battery thing" my old battery was seven years old. To reiterate: if it is not the starter or the flywheel what could it be? Any Mazda mechanics out there?
