Miss Peaches Mazdas are unique. In America they tend to self destruct at 150,000 miles. If you have acceleration problems it could be just about anything. I am not sure of the emmision requirements in the UK but here in America they are quite stringent. It could be a sensor as there are dozens of them on your car is your check engine light on? Also only use ngk or denso spark plugs in Japanese cars NEVER bosch as they burn too hot and burn out the ignition coil and the modulator.

Do you have questions about your car I can answer!
by hambeak ini thought with jakes help i might start something different.
since he is a master tech with 33 years experience, and ford and toyota factory trained maybe you might have some questions about your car and i could give you some good advice to save you some money.. i usually charge $80.00 for a diagnostic at my shop, so get on board and save some money sorry for the brits but i think your cars are somewhat different as far as emission controls are but mechanically the same so let the questions begin..

Juni Look under the car by the inside wheel you will see a rubber boot. When you turn to the right you will hear a clunk if it the cv axle on the right side as well as on the left only on front wheel drive vehicles. It might also be a ball joint but I doubt it. more than likely a cvaxle. If the boot is torn or separated take a flash light and look where the axle goes to the wheel see if it is separated. If so have it replaced and then have the front end alligned

Jh The Toyota yaris is an entry level toyota but toyota is a fine car. Your first oil change should be at 3000 miles or go by your owners manual for scheduled maintenance. DO NOT USE PENNZOIL IN YOUR CAR! Here is the reason you have FIPG for a lot of the metal parts holding together for example the valve covers and the oil pan and front and rear main seals. the additive in pennzoil dissolves fipg much like when you mix dishwashing detergent with grease it dissolves it like water same thing with pennzoil and fipg Nissan has no gaskets all fipg and they suffer the worst all Japanese and Korean cars do. I don't even carry Pennzoil in my shop if you want Pennzoil I have you sign a disclaimer we are nor responsible for oil leaks or damage to the engine.

Aquagirl 1 your check engine light will not come on because of a low battery your charging light may come on, also if you do not make sure your gas cap is on tightly and correctly your check engine light will come on indicating an evaporative leak also if you fill it up with the engine running. Have the light turned off and drive for 200 miles or 8 hours whichever comes first to reboot your cars computer if the light comes back on you have what is called a hard code and have it diagnosed and then repaired. If you still have an evaporative leak code have the dealer put the smoke machine on it to determine the source. If your battery is marginal and will not keep a charge then the diodes in your alternater will fail and you will have to replace both

Juni yours is very simple 1 your cv axle is more than likely broken and needs to be replace about a 220.00 repair the leak is probably from your drain tube in the front of the dash all it needs is to be redirected to the outside so it will drain on the ground and not your floorboard

Yes more than likely your 02 sensors have failed if it is bank 1 sensor 1 or bank 2 sensor 2 most likely the cat has failed as well. Have a qualified mechanic scan your cars computer and get the codes out and that will tell you for sure. Be sure not to use Pennzoil in your nissan as it will cause oil leaks.

I just got a weird phone call ,I don't want to be involved
by troubled mind inthe jw world is so full of weirdness i don't want any part of it anymore .
but i got a bit sucked in... this morning i got a phone call from a woman that has studied and attended meetings for over three years .
her mental stability and smoking has always kept her from progressing very far .

I can certainly relate to your loss I had a ragdoll siamese cat for 14 years I called puppycat. She followed me around just like a puppy would all her life. She met me at the door when I got home from work and loved to play hide and seek. She would sit in my lap whenever I sat down and purred so loud. It has been 4 years since I had her put to sleep because she was so sick and couldn't get well I still think of her every day. Remember the good memories and that will help fill some of the loss
I care Hugs to you

I just had a very interesting phone call from the JC
by hambeak ini got a call today from a member of the judicial committee asking if i would meet with them.
i asked them what for?
i was told it was about my asking questions about wts involvement with the un and bethel layoffs and my getting information from an apostate website.. i told them i have never attended their kh and had been inactive for more than 20 years and no longer accepted their authority and they no longer had a control over my mind or what i read or say or do.

I guess how they found out is I told them when they were coming to my shop I was looking at an internet site that investigated some of the claims jw's made. I also asked how is it women can be of the anointed and have no real role in the cong. You see my mom born in 1915 and my grandmother born in 1890 were all professing to be of the anointed class. I told them this and while I was married I had a very large library of very old books and magazines and even a record player from the 30's with Rutherfords recordings for going door to door. I still have some notes taken by grma in the 30's about adopting the name Jehovah's witnesses. I keep them because they were hers. She died in 1956 and my mom I found out died in 2003 THROUGH THE INTERNET NO LESS! My family has totally disowned me for my lifestyle and I now live 2000 miles away from all of them
