Re: Vibration through steering wheel

Was the vibration through the steering there before the tyres were changed? If not I would go back to the garage who fitted them and get them to check the car. Is the vibration felt all the time or only when you are braking? It could be one of many things such as wheels balanced incorrectly, loose w...

Re: Rear bump stop replacement.

End of saga. Both bump stops replaced for £80 and two hours of my spanner time. Is see on eBay you can buy generic bump stops for about £15 a pair which may or may not fit. I was not prepared to take a gamble and have the car lying around in bits. Next on the list will be rusty brake pipes and rust ...

Re: Rear bump stop replacement.

Well the parts arrived and for the sum of £42.73 I have got one new bump stop and attached dirt cover for the shock. I thought I had ordered a pair for this price but he ho! Removed the old shock (2 chassis nuts are 14mm, bottom bolt is 17mm and shock top nut is 12mm). I found that the bump stop had...

Might be worth adding a few more details such as mileage, service history, number of owners etc and a URL if it's listed on a selling site. If not a then, maybe a few pictures!

Re: Rear bump stop replacement.

No luck finding the parts on Autodoc or from a reliable local motor factors. Parts ordered from Main dealer at £42.73 + VAT. Special order from Belgium and the parts guy said they had never sold or ordered this item before. Guess I have just been unlucky?

Rear bump stop replacement.

Our Mazda 2 (2016 1.5D) has recently started banging from the rear suspension whilst going over bumps and potholes. After a quick pot IMG_20240919_160528.jpg hole laden road test I narrowed it down to the nearside shock. On closer inspection the bump stop has split in half and the plastic dirt cover...

Re: Cx-3 2019 Carplay

No, even cheaper on AliExpress if you are happy buying from China. I paid £80 ish about 3 years ago and it was the genuine kit and works well.

Re: Front grill replacement / inserts

I believe the part number is DL8V-50-710A but please double check. I think it would be easier and cheaper to get the small area of damage repaired using a paint touch up pen or smart repairer. I have replaced badly damaged grills on a 2018 VW Passat and 2019 Seat Mii after bird strikes. The Passat t...

Re: Frequent DPF Regenerations on CX-3 – Need Advice

You will likely need a diesel/DPF specialist garage to resolve this as it could be any number of problems from injectors, EGR valve, sensors to the actual DPF itself.

Could you please update this forum with how you get on and whether you manage to get this fixed. Good luck.

Re: Mazda diagnostic interface

Good morning all, I have recently purchased a Mazda Cx-3 2019 and I was wondering if there is an “official” mazda diagnostic tool, similar to the VIDA dice that I am currently using on my Volvo. Vida is the official interface and software from Volvo where you get access to programming on top of jus...
