What price should I get for a clutch plate and Oxygen sensors? Autozone sells the front OE for $330 and rear OE for $140.
There should NOT be any charges if they decided later that it is powertrain warranty issue.

but I have a feeling they gonna say its not covered.

and, you MUST be smoking crack !

Front OE sensor cost 243.88. Rear cost 119.94 !!!

How much should a clutch plate be at the dealer? Thinking about putting one in. I don't want to pay $200 for the whole kit.

OK, I just got the car back from the Duval Mazda Jacksonville. The tech manager there was really nice and helpful.

I got my 3rd and 3th gears and syncros replaced along with oil pan gasket. All in all totals $2K. Under warranty.

He also said there's a newer flash update for $90. Mine is dated Dec 2006. Should I get it?

The 3rd still has resistance if I shift up from 2nd quickly. I have to guide it in sometimes. Is that normal?
