  1. To do a KAM reset, the battery must be removed for at least 5 minutes. There is no power to any of the meters or lights.
  2. All Mazdas, regardless of powertrain, follow this procedure.
  3. In case the issue still exists this long after OP, or if you just chance to stumble across this: Ozone generators are a remarkable invention. However, there is a catch: ozone is thought to hasten the deterioration of rubber. My cousin handed me his 2007 Impala, which is in fairly bad shape. It smelled bad in a strange way, like greasy fast food mixed with mold. I got this one and used it for many hours while parked in the blazing sun with the air conditioning on recirc, then let it sit in the garage overnight; the vehicle now smells brand new whether it has been exposed to the sun or the rain.
  4. Just tell me what you want to, you know you want to.
  5. Do you happen to know the answers to these questions?
  6. The 255s certainly look the part. I'm running them on dual-finish et33 with no issues. They will work well on Sawtooths since they have the same et20,6 as wolves but are half an inch wider.
  7. I used GL4-specification Comma Fully Synthetic MVMTF 75W80 motor oil. As far as I could tell, GL-4 is the BMW-specified oil, despite the fact that most places sell GL5 instead. Surely others will tell you I'm incorrect, but so what!
  8. Toyota proxy tyres make a huge difference on Mazda 3s, making them much quieter than normal tyres.
  9. I'll keep looking, but it's hard when it looks for words like "on" instead of important words in a phrase. My 3 came with a guarantee that lasts forever. This is something that Mazda just started doing, but it only covers a few things, most of which are mechanical. The protection basically says that you have to fix anything that stops working because of normal wear and tear. When I bought my car, it had 68K miles on it. I also bought insurance that will give me back the full price I paid for the car when I bought it if I write it off in the next 3 years. I like to have everything taken care of!
  10. A clogged pollen filter might cause excessive misting on the inside surfaces of the windows. Just an idea.
  11. Hello, Quirky. Hello and welcome to the Forum. Make sure you go over our Diesel section. I'm certain it will be really beneficial to you.
  12. Is this happening once more?
