Sagrarioluque7, That pump is an electric motor type, YIKES. They are hard to find. I was searching online for one for you and found one on ebay. This is for a 2006 Mazda 3. I don't know of anywhere else besides the dealer. Did you call the dealership where you bought the car from? I am out of suggestions sorry.
How did you pump get flooded with water?

The steering pump is the same on both 2.0 and 2.3. A Mazda dealer down there should work on it, however, it will not be covered under warranty because it was purchased in the US.

I don't think that they have a Mazda dealer there. Maybe I am wrong. If so, then why did he buy the car in the USA?

Find a Ford dealer. Im sure they can get all the inside scoop on Mazda parts and things since Ford owns Mazda.

I don't think Ford owns Mazda. Ford own's 33% of Mazda in total stock, but that is it. I say this because it was in another forum about this discussion, even this forum talked about it. Many people said that Ford does not own Mazda. Who knows?
This is the statement that this forum made in March, 2007:
"Does anyone feel that there is any difference, say an improvement or a degradation in any way with Mazda, whether it's customer service, management style or reliability because Ford owns Mazda?"
Before we dive too far out on this topic, is everyone aware that Ford does NOT own Mazda?
Ford owns a controlling stake (about 33%) of Mazda; that is a bit different from actually OWNING Mazda.

That would be nice and is a great concept. I wonder if the dealers are listening. They could actually learn some thing from us.

If anyone got the speed 3 suspension upgrades let me know what you think, i.e. handling improvements, rough ride, etc.

i have a Mazda 3 2.0 liter and i have had 3 pumps in this car i`m thinking of getting a 1.8 or 1.6 version as sick of replacing the pump
the design is crap and the waterproofing is not good too i love the car but 3 pumps in 2 years is just unbelievable.

You're out of luck; the 1.6L or 1.8L Mazda3 is not in North America. Now, if you're in Europe ...
