I have repeatedly reported the loud ticking noise which the lifters make only with a cold engine, however the dealer IS patronizing, and the last call to schedule a replacement was met with an absolute refusal to to do anything. The service manager said that no matter how many times he replaced the lifters the noise would eventually reoccur. I have therefore a defective engine which should be corrected, but even mazda headquarters refused to do anything. I am dealing with the delaer in palmetto, florida which IS not the dealer from whom I purchased the car. I feel that the rick case would correct this problem, however this not being the original dealer , could care less. My mechanic quoted me the price to replace these lifters which ran $800.00. I am appalled, and would like to know if this IS a recall item. Thanks. *ak

- 10213425Speedometer replacement procedure
- 10153339In accordance with Federal regulations, follow the procedure listed below when replacing a speedometer. NOTE: Tampering with a motor vehicle odometer is strictly prohibited by Federal, and State laws. It is the dealer's responsibility to comply with Federal, State, and local laws concerning odometer and related documentation requirements when providing a repair or replacement. Mazda vehicles are manufactured with tamper-proof speedometers. When a speedometer is replaced, the new speedometer will read zero (0) miles. This procedure is extremely important to accurately represent actual vehicle mileage. Prior to speedometer removal, complete the information required on the "Speedometer Replacement Label". Labels can only be ordered through Mazda eStore. In an effort to achieve a higher level of Customer Experience and retain the value of Mazda's vehicles, MNAO Warranty Operations is allowing all Mazda dealers to utilize a third party, SPECMO Enterprises, Inc., for Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) odometer setting service. With the use of SPECMO's services, it is possible that the odometer will be set between 10 to 31 miles over the odometer mileage at the time of replacement for both warranty and customer pay repairs. Please make sure that the customer is aware that there may be a slight variance to the odometer, in which case the customer may have to accept the slightly higher mileage. Since odometer setting service is not part of the warranty repair, it is not warrantable nor required, but optional. However, Mazda Warranty policy provides after-warranty assistance (AWA) or DSA that can be utilized to cover this service expense.
