If you live in America, you should qualify for a rebuilt from Mazda. I'd suggest you get on the phone with your favorite local dealer asap.

sounds to me like u got coolant leaking into your motor where it shouldnt be. take it to a local dealer. pretty sure its going to need a new motor.

You just bought the car, take it back to the dealer to have them diagnosed the problem. They should fix it under the warranty. Good luck with the dealership...if you know what i mean.
