Starter may need to be upgraded to the new one.

NAL

P2004 is the APV stuck open, this will cause starting issues

NAL

where is it at?

NAL

I talk to the dealership today they said they changed a few SSv valves and triggers the a aVP valve cel and said the light never goes off in less you change the intake manifold is that true? If so can I just put a Turbo in it and it will fix it?

Carbon Fibr

yeah, just turbo it. Id say 50 pounds of boost is good.
all fixed

NAL

i guess what i ment is will it replace my values or my manifold?

I hear installing NOS helps with hot start problems, you could try that!

But you need to get the APV unstuck. Poor compression could also cause long start times. Why did you get a replacement slow starter?

Installing a turbo won't a do a damn bit of good except waste your money.

NAL

Cuz there was nothing wrong with the slow one it started my car before I changed the sparkplugs

NAL

this is What it sounds like on a hot start

Cliffjumper126

If it wasn't flooded here, and started up after it cooled down, then your compression is too low when hot for the starter to be able to successfully start the engine. Unless it's the APV, but it seems like it would actually start if that was the problem. Get a compression test

NAL

I am tomorrow. But could it be my crankshaft position sensor is going bad? And when it's warm it won't work right? And when I was in my car before I started it the check engine light blink 8 times but when I start the car and it's not on

Cliffjumper126

It could possibly be a bad crank sensor, but from the sound of the video, your car is firing/trying to start (when the cranks get faster the longer you hold the key, means engine is catching a little), so I doubt it. If the sensor was bad (and not dirty), then it wouldn't fire/catch at all.

Blinking check engine light is always a misfire.

Good luck on the test. From the looks of things, you'll need it

Well I had no compression and my coils was toast but Mazda is sending me a new engine for free wooooot I still don't understand why this would happen from just changing the spark plugs? If Mazda would sell a cheaper Chilton's maybe people could do it...

Cliffjumper126

It wouldn't happen from changing the spark plugs. It's been happening over time, it just coincidentally died when the plugs were changed.

By "chilton's" I'm guessing you mean "coils". There are cheaper ones, you buy them at auto parts stores, which is what most people do. The mazda ones are just too overpriced.

NAL

No I mean the book Mazda sells it for 150 bucks.... and it's lose paper.... so to the people who are having hot starts go get a compression check and you might be under warranty Cuz I put in 800 $$ to find out it was my engine and I got lucky
