Thank you for your input, if you can get that for me that would be great.

Please let me know when you take your car out in the hot weather / hard driving conditions if it still helped..

Spiceboy: I have the info for that dealership but remember that the master tech was actually from subaru. I'm sure he'd be helpful but I'll have to check to see if he knows if there's a master tech at the mazda service dpt.

(I still have his business card)
