You might try to get the revised engine mounts (TSB: Hesitation/idle vibration due to cracked engine mounts). Read it here: http://finishlineperformance.com/sto....php?pageid=11

just went through this myself.
1) Do compression check for sure (rx-7 store charge $40. Thanks jason.)
2) Read all TSBs from the link given above. I had a few things covered.
3) Make sure you are up to date on the ECU flash.
I am getting my stereo replaced next week due to the CD player skipping heavily while hitting small bumps, got to love it.
Take care,
Brian

Confused about the compression and oil leak tests...
If your car appears to work fine and if the dealer doesn't notice a problem with your car, how can paying a third party to test your car help? If you pay the dealer for diagnostoc testing and they DO find an issue, does Mazda fix the issue and reimburse you for the testing fee?
Mazda USA doesn't have to do any warranty work until their dealer's service department believes there is a problem AND the issue is confirmed with their own diagnostic testing procedures on their own equipment. This is regardless of what you the customer says.
Am I wrong on this?
