Howling noise from engine
My car came from the dealership today. They were working on the problem (they recorded the size of the air bubbles that came out from the fuel filter and send the video to Mazda Europe in Germany) and in my case, they only changed the fuel filter. The noise has stopped ,for now at least, but I will keep an eye (and ears!) and see if it doesn't happen again!

Exactly, if the noise is air moving around, I doubt I would bother with it and I can’t see a HP pump fixing it either. They might stop the noise with bleeding it after. Unfortunately, the CX`3 doesn’t have any proper means of bleeding the engine, it has to be drawn from an open connection on the engine.

It is indeed air in the fuel filter air. I have had it on my diesel CX3 and it drove me mad for weeks. It's funny how your ear can tune in to a certain noise and seem to amplify it My local dealer had to contact Japan to get a fix but changed the fuel filter assembly and all ok
I got mine fixed in the end. Never found the time to get it back into the dealer and had to get it serviced so got the local garage who I've used for years to do it. They changed the fuel filter as part of the service and no noise since.
Mine had previously had the bubbles measured and the pump replaced under warranty but it did nothing.

Yeah probably sound advice unless it's bad. Think of it as part of the cars character. Few franchise dealers IMO will have a hope of finding it without replacing half the car bit by bit hoping for the best. Meanwhile putting the replacement parts on in a substandard way.
