Replying to: zippydriver (May 21, 2009 8:09 am) 2008+ has 3.7 MZI engine with revised intake and programming/tuning by Mazda (seem that they were not happy about the defaults from Ford). The MZI has "drive-by-wire" throttle. It seems that the same device also presents an issue on Ford vehicles as well. There is a TSB on Ford engines, but Mazda has not issued one yet. i.e. throttle problem is well known by Mazda/Ford on this engine. Hopefully, the later ones have better parts than what we got. I am keeping my fingers crossed for mine. So far so good. |

Replying to: ken92 (May 21, 2009 8:55 am) when I took it to the dealer and drove the mechanic around, showing him what happened ie the stalling/rpm fluctuation, he told me that he had already checked the problem with Mazda online (not sure how he does this), and they noted that they had another another car with same problem which was caused by the throttle body. Based on this, and seeing the problem, he said they were authorized to change it. The dealer was Country Mazda Service in Huntington, NY (631) 271-6745. John S. is I believe, the service manager. zippy |
