These tech's are a bunch of ******* monkeys. After all this **** I have been thru with my car here is the reason my car had the random misfire.

4-Spark Plugs

Plug Wires

nice, can I have your old engine?



that looks like how the motec/electromotive ignition wheels. BTW when the car is under warranty, dealers make a fortune fixing them. Becuase they just keep billing Mazda North America. That engine swap probably netted them lots of mula... (atlseat that is what I think)

mazda doesnt pay full pop, plus the techs prolly spent more time on the car than mazda is paying for. not saying that they didnt make $ but customer pay pays better

Don't get to excited. I have the exact same problem you do and I have done this before, but eventually the CEL came back. I wish we could get it sorted though.
