I've started to ignore the cel. It first fashed on the second day after I picked up the car from the dealer. This summer it flashed;it flashed; it stayed on for a few days; went off for a few days. I finally took it in when it stayed on for 2 weeks. It took them 2 days to change 2 plugs (they don't stock them) - they told me I had to use only Sunoco fuel. The light came on the next day. I've since installed a Greddy turbo. The light comes on and off at random although I do notice that it often comes on for a few seconds when I slow down against the engine.

That's hilarious about only using Sonoco.

What are the error codes associated with your CELs?

You're not alone buddy, my check engine light came up too.

and I have no idea, I drive normal, I never did crazy stuff. seriously I got my car like 4-5 months and Im getting a "check engine" light?

sad thing is that Mazda's service department , should I say sucky or too busy? everyone I called b4 forced me to wait at least 2-3 weeks before I can go. come on.
