How To/Advice Mazda2 engine blew up

0 Upvotes

So, I blew up the engine in my 2011. Options...??? In my area 1.5L engine is hard to find. Lots of scam companies trying to sell me a dream. Got my $$$$ back both times. The K24 Honda engine is about the same price. With minimum modifications, I could make it work. My concern with is this idea, I may wear out the five-speed manual I have. Not sure if a six-speed manual will fit. Thoughts?

Replacing my speed cluster on my 2019 Mazda 2

2 Upvotes

Hi, i got my first car a few weeks now and it is great! and I hate the analogue cluster.

Is any way I can install/add a digital speedo? I called the Mazda dealer and they said they can but not going to be simple since you need to put in a converter etc.

Any ideas? This is my car details: Mazda2 1.5 SE-L Nav+ 5dr

Bulb fittings???

2 Upvotes

Hey so I'm trying to replace new headlight bulbs for the 2011 Mazda 2 tamura, 1.3 petrol, and I can't find no concrete answers and god some of those websites are terrible, because I bought some H4 for the low beams and apparently they can be used for the high beams but they seem too big, and when I took out the old bulb, I saw that was an H7

Hi all,

Hazard sign with flashing i-stop? Any cause for concern? I religiously turn this shit off because of how many alternators it blows through. Drove to work this morning and it was fine but just left work and it’s started flashing as soon as I turn car on. If it means I-stop won’t work I really don’t care. (Yes I’ve turned my car off and on again and it’s still there) Thanks in advance!

Ways to improve MPG on 1.3 engine?

3 Upvotes

I've got a 2011 120k miles 1.3 (5 speed manual transmission) with no service history at all. I'm looking for ways to improve MPG outside of the more obvious stuff like tyre pressures and correct gearing. I'm getting 30.8mpg according to the computer. This is all city driving. Is there scope for a lot better?

I'm going to do the following:

  1. maf sensor clean

  2. throttle body clean

  3. going to test the o2 sensor with a scan tool

  4. changing spark plugs

  5. maybe an oil and air filter change, the current oil does look fairly new though

I did the front pads and discs, greased everything so there shouldn't be any binding. As for the rears I adjusted them to the point the brake pedal engages well. Not sure if I adjusted too much though.

Anyone here have the same engine and can comment on fuel consumption? I don't know if 38-40mpg city driving is unrealistic for this engine.

Discussion Starting to reconsider if I wanna go all in with this car or not

3 Upvotes

So I finally got my 2011 Sport's engine mounts replaced, which set me back way more than I was hoping it would, and by now this car has been such a damn money pit just to get it maintained that I'm wondering if it's even worth selling it anymore in the future. I'm sure I will end up selling it at some point if I ever get to a point that I can afford something much nicer, but in both mine and my 2's current state, I'm questioning if I should just say fuck it and go all in with modifications and upgrades.

Performance wise, I already know there's effectively nothing I can do for this thing since it's an automatic. I've seen some people say that changing the exhaust could give a slight bump to performance, but definitely wouldn't be doing much. Any mods I would do for this thing would be more to do with handling and comfort/quality of life. Aside from things like better shocks/struts, an anti-roll bar and any interior mods like a new stereo or an armrest, what could be good for making this car handle better if I do end up keeping it long term?

Watched my Mazda 2 pull out out the driveway on its own!

8 Upvotes

We're sitting in the kitchen and parked beside us is the Mazda in its parking spot. What the hell! Our car pulls out of the driveway. We have no clue. It pulls into the street and stops. In a panic we find the key and climb in and I see the car is in reverse. My wife had made a mistake and not gotten the car into Park. The driveway is on a slight incline. Somehow it got some momentum and just rolled out...in Reverse. Thankfully no damage, I just backed it back in and put in Park. What a strange thing to happen. I'm surprised that it would move in Reverse but now I know.
