  1. Upon further examination, it has been often likened to comparable experiences; I believe I have described it as akin to being towed down a road in a metal tub equipped with Halfords lowering springs on many occasions. The Pogo effect almost resulted in a crash in 2023; the Konis mitigated this issue but significantly diminished comfort to an intolerable level for everyday usage. I now have the 2024 rear dampers installed, and while they are an improvement over the originals, they remain suboptimal; nonetheless, they are less problematic in comparison to the significant gearbox troubles I am experiencing. Mazda UK is utterly reprehensible. Arguably the most inadequate customer service of any automotive company with whom I have interacted.
  2. I am quite pleased to have removed my Koni shocks, which were utterly unsuitable for UK conditions.
  3. It is located on the windshield if you are observing
  4. It should be appropriately labeled. It seems that the 350 variant was mostly from 2018/69. The 400d, from 2019 forward.
  5. Is the 350 a V6 engine and the 400 an inline six-cylinder engine?
  6. It is prudent to enquire with other vendors to ascertain their potential offers. A single hour of calls may provide an additional thousand dollars or more in savings. Consider obtaining a more favourable rate as well.
  7. Any or all of it might be distorted or misaligned.
  8. For a bulb, allow Halfrawds to accommodate one. It is their responsibility to get the appropriate bulb, which should not be an expensive task.
  9. I believe TechnoTrailblazer is accurate above. Are your lights original equipment manufacturer or aftermarket?
  10. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/235923348123?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=yi1ojZncSxy&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=eVPsP3o3TNu&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&campid=5338774556&toolid=10001&customid=130832X1595858Xa803a5bcea84104454a17358b3eca3ea
  11. Consider a maintenance service package if you plan to retain it.
  12. I saw that they might be purchased for around £80, which, as you said, would constitute a simple solution. Nonetheless, even if the wheel bearing is functioning well, it is likely that the Reluctor Ring is deteriorating. (I have implemented a provisional solution on one of my devices by placing a washer behind the ABS Sensor.) I am astonished that one of my rear bearings is producing noise, since the vehicle has only accumulated 90,000 km.
  13. If I am unable to remove the Drive Shaft, I could just saw it off and purchase new components, so alleviating much of the inconvenience. New Hub - £35 S/H Hub Carrier - £45 New whole drive shaft - £46 I will want a Bearing Fitting Kit (£36) to install the new Bearing. However, it would undoubtedly be more economical than hiring a garage to do all the tasks, which may also need new components.
  14. Indeed, I anticipated that it may be challenging. In several films, individuals simply remove the Hub Nut with a socket and a breaker bar, then dislodging the drive shaft with a rod and a hammer. In certain cases, they must use power equipment and various types of pullers. I recently removed the wheels to eliminate kerbing and re-sprayed them. I ought to have examined the nuts; yet, I do not remember them seeming particularly defective. I have a cordial local garage that I consult when a task beyond my capabilities (such as one I have started and had difficulties with). Therefore, I may attempt it and assess my progress. I inquired about the potential cost, but they said that it is contingent upon the ease of the task; sometimes, the driveshafts are simply removed, while at other times, they are so severely damaged that a new hub and driveshaft must be installed. Regardless, I believe there is little need to proceed, therefore I will likely defer until spring to assess its appearance, especially with the onset of colder weather.
  15. If I go with this, I may concurrently replace the ABS reluctor ring.
