#31 of 36 Heated seats by firstmazda3 May 06, 2008 (7:28 pm)
Hi, I have just purchased a 05 mazda 3 GT. I thought all the leather interiors had heated seats. I just learned today that the heated seats were not available till 06. So.... does any one know what it would take/cost to retro fit heaters under my butt??? Thanks.
#32 of 36 Mazda 3 AC problems - Compressor seized by wagnero Jan 20, 2009 (6:02 pm)
I have a 2003 Mazda 3 with 51,000 miles on it and the AC system just went kaput. I turned on the heat and something behind the dash made a strange noise and it kind of smelled like burning plastic.   I took it to a mechanic and he said the compressor was bad and that it had also damaged several other components, all of which needed to be replaced. His quote was $2500.   The AC has never been very strong, but I can't believe I'm going to be out $2500 for a car with 51,000 miles on it. I am very stingy with the AC as well; I only use it when it is really hot. Anyone else having problems with their Mazda 3?

Replying to: wagnero (Jan 20, 2009 6:02 pm) I had the EXACT same problem. I have a 2005 Mazda 3i. At 52,000 miles, the A/C compressor seized. Quote from the dealership (who wouldn't fix it for free since I was 2,000 miles over warranty....) was $1,800 to replace the whole system. Ended up waiting until winter was over (since who needs it then?) and got it replaced with after-market parts when the odometer said 65,000. for about $1,400.   Now it's 18 months later, and the NEW compressor has seized. Just my luck that the warranty on that is 12 months, so they won't replace it for me. I'm beginning to think this is not a problem with parts, but somehow with the engine putting undue wear and tear on the compressor for some reason. In any case, I am NOT happy about having to pay another $1,400 to get another 18 months of A/C. Replies to this message: roadburner (Sep 24, 2009 7:56 am)

Replying to: davisja (Sep 23, 2009 8:38 am) Did the shop that installed your compressor flush the A/C system before installing it? That could be the problem...

Replying to: zeeboy (Oct 18, 2009 6:18 pm) Yes, by using four fingers on the switches.
