I just dig up the parts info for their *on order* parts.
F151-73-771F :
the last word is F, not 1, and its the weather strip, AKA rubber door seal for the driver side
FE62-16-510C :
Now I wonder why are they ordering another clutch release bearing aka throwout bearing, I just changed mine like couple hundred miles ago. all I asked was to replace the CLUTCH RELEASE CUT SWITCH, the one right behind the fuxking clutch pedal. NOT BEARING !!! WTF ?! I even had the TSB with me and they looked at it ....
N326-11-D03 :
D03 not 003, and this is the PLIOT BEARING .... lol, I just had my clutch changed now I wonder what they gonna say when they see my new flywheel + clutch
KL0118741 :
I missed this number before, this number pulled up a bunch of stuff but they all have the same price and almost the same description ... all Solenoid and it cost less than 60 bucks each ~~~ they're actually that cheap? damn, I thought its alot more expensive.
F184-44-010 :
I cant find this one, I probably just cant *decrypt* his hand writing and got the wrong number.
All these parts are freaking cheap, why are they making it such a big fuss about it ~
I mean come on I say it should take them no longer than 5 hours to finish everything. Big freaking deal. Damn stupid Mazda techs. I just told them I had some *noise when I step on my clutch* , shown them the TSB printout and they still got it wrong ..... damn retards.

under the law, they can only void the warranty of parts that were hurt by the aftermarket mod, futhermore they have to prove it was the mod.
everything else, besides what was directly effected by the mod is still under warrant
magnuss moss act, or some thing like that, i cant recall the name, its all over the forum though. . . . .
good luck, dont take no sh*t from anybody, take no prisoners!

I disconnected the vacuumm line from the VFAD which runs to the underside of the intake manifold and then capped with a vacuum nipple cap which I purchased from Pepboys or Checker Auto Parts.
Then I tucked the VFAD connector up close to the strut brace so it doesn't draw attention.

Like I said before, I want *prove* , not the tech's mouth or *cuz mazda said so*

Just an FYI the Mazdaspeed Cold Air Intake does not use this plug or the vacum line that goes to the under side of the throtle body. So I would use that as some amunition.

Your easy to avoid on the phone - personal contact is the only way - keep your temper down.

So I went back to the dealer and had the tech come out to show me what he considered "mods" as I was not going to be a happy camper if the made me remove the RB catback, RP super cat, coolers or suspension parts. In short to get the reflash I had to remove the RB cold air intak and Mazport cooling mod. You may have to do the same.

Why would I want it to be disconnected ? First of all its completely useless, second of all I have the same CEL even before I disconnect it.
If they dont give it to me, its fine, but Im just **** about their Tech's attitude, I already kept my temper down, if I didnt I think yell the crap out of them already.
I dont even feel like to call them anymore. I might just go to another dealership(closer one) and talk to them, see what they say.
