Re: Cx3 Rear Washer Nozzle Replacement

Hi All. Haven't posted for a while - and yep, we've still got the same CX-3 we bought from new in Sept 2015. It's been over 7-years of trouble-free motoring. Brilliant. However, our rear washer jet has been blocked for some time (but not an MOT fail). On our Mini Cooper S, you can simply unscrew the...

That's astonishing Housespider. We've done 27,000 miles on the original Toyo's - and they still look like new.

Re: Leaking Shock Absorber

Derbro, this CX-3 forum link may help. We also had leaking shocks not long after we bought the car.

Re: Windscreen replacement

So Geejam, something that was legal and safe on one day, was deemed so dreadfully unsafe and illegal to drive the next?!! *That* is just so damned crazy! Yes Andy. Agreed. Crazy. Over the last two decades, the MOT has evolved into something it was never designed to do. As you know, it was brought i...

Re: Windscreen replacement

Last October, Donald's Mazda Stamford phoned to say our 3-year old CX-3 had failed its first MOT. It failed solely due to a chipped windscreen and nothing else. Having driven around with the small chip since the summer, it never bothered us because it was just outside the direct field of vision. Wit...

Those gullible politicians, legislative organisations (and the BBC) who, of late, continually pander to the whims of a small handful minority group of vociferous do-gooders who wish to make life so difficult for the rest of us.

Re: Dashboard rattle

Re: 3rd Annual Service + MOT

Good luck and are you going to extend the warranty ??? No MJC1216, having weighed up all the pro's and cons, we've finally decided that Mazda's build quality, their reputation and parts longevity outway the need to purchase an extended warranty*. If something major went wrong (such as a con rod fai...
