wow ahah.
I did some searching last night and came to conclusion that my cat is clogged cause it wont rev above 6k.
However im not too worried about that right now.
Just had car towed to tranny shop to get diagnosed.
Most likely going to just have it fixed in town for quicker turn around time.
then will replace the cat with a universal magna flow cat and hopefully be cruising problem free

I should be I'm just over 65k but it would be a waste of time seeings how I've done most of my own oil changes and I've heard from a few people that Mazda has been getting on it with the paperwork.

Thought about that too, want to look into the possibilities of getting the 6-port engine instead of the 4-port and/or some street porting. If the figures aren’t too crazy high then I’ll probably head in that direction.

If you need receipts there are ways top get them........... the warranty paperwork only states you need maintenance records. On my first replacement they did not ask for any receipts, on the second they did. Don't assume.

lmao at that one, but that pretty much answers the whole 6-port thing still think I'm going to see how much it would for the rebuild, seals, porting, blahblahblah. For now it's time to get back to work before someone notices there's a hub leaking over the bay.

If you're experienced with forums, you should know that you shouldn't take stuff on the internet too seriously. Honestly, you had a rough start. It may be different on the other forums you've been to, but it's pretty normal for there to be a less than warm welcome when someone new asks fairly common or basic questions and there is already a lot of information or discussions on the topic. Like it or not, that's how this forum has been for quite a long time and it's not going to change anytime soon.
As a warning: You will get a lot of **** for having an auto, especially the 4 port. It used to be even worse, so you could consider yourself lucky in that regard. Like I mentioned, you had a bit of a rough start. Be ready to catch a bit of **** for that too. The more you get worked up about it, the worse it will be. It'll blow over pretty quickly if just play it cool and deal with it. Think of it as an "initiation" of sorts. If you have an attitude, you'll just get more responses like the ones you've run into so far.

The best purpose for forums like this is to have a wealth of knowledge available to those interested or in need. If the whole purpose of it was to just keep a forum alive or to constantly revisit the same old questions, we wouldn't keep all of these threads around... we would delete them so we could continuously talk about the same ****, every single day.
We're just saying suck it up and deal with it. I'll assume you're tough enough to handle a couple internet insults without getting too hurt over it. I wouldn't say it's about being part of the "cool club", but you have to know that you wont get much help if you can't get along with the people able to help you.
I feel like my last post let you off a bit too easy, so...
You've been on a vehicle based forum and didn't think there was a single thread that discussed oil in a useful manner? I've been on quite a few automotive forums and I've noticed that they all have a thread about oil pop up about once a week. They always end up the same and each new thread is even more useless than the last. If you're an experienced forum user, you should have been aware of that.
