• Mazda MX5 (1998-2005) - 2000 1.8 intermittent starting fault 29 Apr 2023 (Forum)
  i am having an intermittent starting problem with my mazda mx5 icon.it only happens when the car has been warmed up and running for about 10 minutes.it starts 1st time every morning or if it has been sitting for 1 hour or more.the problem only happens once the car has been running and then parked for about 10 -20 minutes.the car will turn over but wont start or on the odd occasion it will start but appears not to firing on all cylinders but this normally clears after a couple of minutes.I have taken the car to 2 garages but because it is so intermittent they can not find the fault, also no error codes coming up on the computer.Could it possibly be the coil pack if it only happens once it is warmed up?

• Mazda 3 , 2.0 sel nav - petrol - P0421 - catalyst system below threshold bank 1 4 Oct 2022 (Forum)
  Is this likely to be the catalyst failing/blocking or should I be looking at other areas too? The Mazda 3 has two cats, one in the exhaust manifold and one under the car, as far as I can see there are two sensors, pre-cat in manifold and post cat (2nd cat), I’ve yet to check the temperatures either side of the cats.
