RPM problem! My 8 is slower!
Has anyone had this problem? My 8 started to drive weird 2 days ago. First my check engine light came on.The RPMs are ridiculously low between shifts. As everybody knows rotary engines love high RPMs but my 8 wont let me go over 6,000 RPMs anymore. The car doesn't accellerate as fast anymore either. I schedule an appointment at the Mazda dealer for Tue. But I think they won't help me since I lowered the car with tanabe springs.Someone please help.:(

springs
unless you lowered it to the point where the tires are rubbing against the wheel-well to the point of slowing you down....the dealership should still help you. if u are having a transmission/engine problem, it is a different warrenty issue. usually the warrenty is void on just the part that you swap out. not the whole warranty. now, if ur driving and your spring falls off........, they will not cover THAT expense.

Sounds like a toasted Cat to me.
|
is the cel blinking or steady? my guess is toasted cat or coils.
|
I was going to say coils. You can check this yourself... check out this thread to see what one looks like.

Your cat ate a mouse full of gas and got fried.

possibly Cat
I did hear after i came from the track a faint crackyling noise under the car. almost like loose metal but it went away quick so i didn't think nothing of it. It might be the cat. I'll find out when i take it to the dealer. Thanks for all your help guys. I was streessing over the warranty issue thanks pret for your input.:cool:

Burnt Cat
Got the diagnosis back from the dealer. As you guys said it was a burnt cat.I had a hard time with the dealer because of my L.E.D. undercarriage lights. But now every thing is cool. Thanx peeps.:D
