Lots of threads on this problem with the A/T... seems like Mazda got a big headache on its hands.

 

i see what do you think is the problem

 

could be all sorts fo things including a clogged fuel filter from low fuel or a bad fuel pump causing low pressure. you should get i to a dealer and have them find the fault. if there is a cel light get eh code. we can help furthur after we have a little more info.

 

thanks man i my car want even start today lol i am pretty annoyed and mad ay i hope it not to much of a problem they are going to have a look in few days

 

Good luck with your problem. My RX8 has been out of action for over 50 days and on its third engine. The technician said the problem the first time was the oil metering pump. He said for some reason the auto RX8's have a problem with them.

Do a search and you will find alot of information on the subject.

 

i went the dealer on friday after noon and today they said the problem is my spark plug but i just changed my spark plug at 8600k and it only done 4000k for that i will tell you guys what happend when i get my car back tomorow
