My 8 in smoke
Hey guys, just wanted to see if someone might know why my car lost major power, idle problems and smoke coming from under the car & hood all at once.
Just this morning while driving my car for breakfast, I noticed that my car wouldn't idle right and didn't have NO power, I had to go over 5000rpm just
to get enough power to drive on th street. I then took it to Long Beach Mazda
as I got off my car smoke was coming out from under the car and hood
When people at Mazda checked the car they had said that the K&N would be
the cause of the engine to heat
, I then told them that the engine was not over heating that it had to be the tranny.
Any info you guys may have can help me alot.....Thanks Serg

Just got my car back today, coils were changed and tranny was checked...that's
what they say and everything if good now. I've noticed that my 8 has more power
after the coils were replaced
The End...I hope!!

from two spots (1.)one of my coil packs, all coils were replaced....(2.)some smoke
from tranny, the tranny was inspected...so they say.
All was done under warranty....but what sucked was that I didn't get a car for the time being cause of my intake. I felt like putting my foot in his ***..hahahaha
