My vin is higher than specified in that pdf, I guess that means it doesn't apply to me.

Funny, I almost want to have it apply to me.

I have been after the local dealer to order one of those for me for 6 weeks. Every time I call or go in there, they put me off. They say they're going to call me back with an update and never do. This is the same dealer who couldn't order a replacement wheel for me until I gave them the correct part number. I've had enough. It's Flow Mazda in Charlottesville, VA, and they are pathetic. I beg you guys not to go there. At least I didn't buy my car there - they just happen to be the closest dealer to where I live and work.

Anyway, I guess I'm going to have to go way out of my way and get this done at another dealer. Grrrrr......

When I went in, they claimed it had already been done and just reflashed my PCM (which worked by the way). I took delivery in September with a vin in the 1006xx range and didn't see how I could have possibly had the new oil pan already. As long as I'm not getting that oil light, I'm happy.
