i dont have it anymore but its fairly simple to find one at any upull yard and or go on car-part.com to find one.

It did not fix my issue, replacing the transmission fixed my issue, but I only paid 100 for a new transmission so it wasn't bad, do you have a gen 1 or gen 2 because I have a spare gen 1 and gen 2...

My insurance told me if you their is something on the road, box, animals etc, to just hit it and avoid swerving for obvious reason which could be endangering other motorist. Not sure what insurance...

you havent paired your immobilizer with your ecu, there is a special key combo you have to do i forgot it, google it.

typical 2.3, 3rd cylinder oil consumption issues if you need a good motor with 64,000km on it let me know.

I got a tcm out of my 08 if yours ever breaks, let me know ill sell it fairly cheap.

Had issues like this as well with my 08, first struts started leaking, replaced them with koni orange, then the engine blew for the 2.3L oil issue, then transmission issues and i ended up replacing...

The people at part source won't let me buy transmission fluid from them because it causes too many issues, try mazda mv it's actually cheaper then the stuff from part source if you get the tm3...

Are your running mazda mv transmission fluid because I know Mazda's are picky when it comes to transmission fluid.

Have you tried changing your tcm? Mazda 3s are known to have tcm issues

When you turn the car on the AT light will come on every time, but what im saying is when you start driving for a while and the light is on right when you get in the car and then the light shuts off...

Sounds like your tcm is shot, and the tcm is not part of the ecu it's on top of the transmission and the tcm could be bought on Kijiji for around 300. Make sure if you do buy a tcm that it is for a...

When does the AT light come on? If it is right when you get in the car and then it shuts off and shifts fine then it us your tcm. If it comes on after fluids warm up and won't go past 3rd gear then...

Gen 1 Mazda 3 2.3 are absolutely garbage and is the biggest fault of the car. I've swapped my 2.3 out with another one so we will see how long this one lasts. Hopefully everything works out for you...

That's great help thank you very much, I'm not to worries about someguy I can see his parents never loved him lol.

Why would I do that? Because you said so? I know I can win one which is the insurance one so I'm going to fight that. I just think you personally like giving the government money, but that's none of...
