  1. Mine doesn't to that, in fact, mine rides quieter and is more solid feeling than most other things I have driven. This is really the only problem I have and it seems fixable, just have to convince the dealer. Also, what year is his? Because the previous gen was kinda a piece.
  2. My car is having an issue where shifting from 1st to 2nd quickly causes the syncros to grind. Even if you have the clutch on the floor, if you shift too quick above 4k it will grind. Every other gear is fine except from 1st to 2nd. I have found several forum posts from different sites all with people having shifting problems from 1st to 2nd. I took it into the dealer once when it first started happening like 6 months ago but it didnt do it very often then and I really didnt start having fun with my car until recently when I stopped caring about gas milage so I never noticed this problem and of course the dealer could not replicate the problem. Well now it is really starting to piss me off because I like quick shifting and it happens almost daily now, I guarantee the dealer will not be able to replicate the problem or they will say I should not be driving the car that aggressive and will claim I dont know how to drive stick. How do I go about this if this happens? Take them for a ride and show them? I just want a battle plan for when they call and say I am a liar even though I just drove around the block and was able to do it 5 out of 6 times I tried. http://www.mazda3forums.com/index.php?PHPSESSID=e78fdc62dabf5a4adeb1f987fc9ad113&topic=176417.0 http://mazda3revolution.com/forums/2010-mazda-3-engine-performance/4733-help-2nd-gear.html http://www.fyidriving.com/article/mazda3-grinds-when-shifting-into-second-gear/ http://www.carcomplaints.com/Mazda/MAZDA3/2011/clutch/grinding_sound_between_first_and_second_gear.shtml http://www.torontomazda3.ca/forum/showthread.php?64733-1-2-shift-grind
  3. This is while streaming Netflix and updating my Mac.I have hit 30 down at times. I wish I had 20 up, it took like 3 days to get all my gap vids on YouTube.
  4. Well that didnt work out. Dealer completely screwed up the listing online and got the trim level wrong so I am back on the hunt.
  5. Thanks for the info, didn't realize car fax were so unreliable but I makes sense that people dont always report things.
  6. It's a 2010 WRX Hatch, looking at a few right now and just want the carfax or equivalent. Looking for accidents and major service. May have a few more to look up later today.
  7. Looking at getting a used car and this is the VIN, can someone please run this since I know there are several dealers on here. I would really appreciate it! JF1GH7G6XAG822913
  8. It may have something to do with the metal bridging the gap between the antennas, maybe some kind of insulation between the case and phone with solve that.
  9. Wow, with all that I would say you definitely got a deal! You may have gotten the most taken care of and tastefully modded S2000 ever lol
  10. Nice ride! How much was it if you don't mind me asking.
  11. I have seen a few product reviews on them and they seem awesome, was looking at getting one of the lower end vapor cases myself but just couldnt see dropping $100 on a case :/
  12. This is exactly what I am talking about.
  13. So now we are comparing dogs with minds of their own to guns?
  14. It's not that other dogs don't bite, it's that other dogs are not as powerful as a pit bull. Like someone else stated, a pit chow mix is a bad idea because of the attitude of the chow and the power of the pit. Its not that all pits are bad dogs, but when they are bad, they are very bad because of the power they can unleash.
  15. I don't really care what studies and things say, this is not the first time I have heard or seen a pit bull attacking someone for no reason. My neighbor had his taken away a few years ago because it bit a 5 year old playing in the yard. Never saw it have any kind of aggression towards anyone until that day. So I may be bias in my opinion but thats exactly what it is, an opinion. Was it a mix or a pure breed, I don't know, but I do know that dog will always be in the back of my mind whenever I think of the breed.
  16. Mmm, the speed. Maybe getting one of those soon or a WRX, still deciding.
  17. I use time instead of distance when talking more than 60 miles or so, not sure why but I feel like more people can grasp that distance better than miles. Edit: I realize this was a rhetorical question bit 4 Edmond Fitzgeralds in and I have somewhat lost my ability to decipher this lol
  18. Good for you, there Is a reason pit bulls require insurance to own and this is exactly it.
  19. I would have definitely had the police involved! There is no reason something like this should have happened and as someone already stated, what if it were a child or even, what if you had not been wearing armor?!
  20. Damn, if this were an hour closer I would be in :/
  21. Agreed!! These guys are completely insane but I love it!
  22. Well considering she is not my girl but keeps coming back, I'm pretty sure she makes the real sounds
  23. Yeah, this is shit. I don't want to pay for fake noises, what if my engine has a problem? Do they play a track of an engine with a missing cylinder? I mean that's the fucking stupid, just like the click noises are on touch screens since they don't have buttons anymore, how fucking annoying is it to listen to fake button taps when texting?! I'm not a child who is amused by fake engine noises from my toy car, this is a big boy toy and needs to make big boy sounds.
