Just gone to get my 2002 MX5 1.8 out of my garage.
Battery too flat to start it.
Hasn't been used for 2 weeks and only had one short run in the 2 weeks
before that.

Has anyone experienced a battery drain even after disabling the radio
(aftermarket)?  My '91 has an issue with holding voltage.  A new battery was
installed this summer after some alt and bat testing.  The alt tests good,
but even the new bat won't hold voltage for more than two ...

I need the small, and large rubber boots for my NA, and I was shocked to
find out how much the dealers want for them !!   About the best price I've
seen so far is from Trussville for ~$48.00 !!!
I think it's nuts that you can buy a CV boot for $8.00 but a shift boot is

I have a 1990 MX5.
The custom exhaust is rattling and giving me the sh.ts depite numerous
attempts by my performance mechanic to silence it.
I was wondering whether there were any Melbournian readers here who could

I have a 1992 Miata which I bought new in November 1992. It now has 7000
(seven thousand) miles on it. Within the last month, the airbag light
has started to flash. The blink rate is four flashes on at one second
intervals then off for four or five seconds. Then the cycle repeats ...

As I was putting on my 3rd snow tire this morning, it dawned on
me that I needed centering rings for the aftermarket wheels
that my snow tires are on.  Some places sell poly carbonate
rings, some places sell aluminum ones.  Since they're supposed

My '92 Miata with about 90K, has been pegging the oil pressure gauge at the
90 psi mark during acceleration. Thinking it was the gauge or sending unit,
I took it to my mechanix. He said the both were fine and the oil pressure
was actually in the 70-90 psi range at 2500-3000 rpm. He ...

After so much enjoyment, I have to consider another vehicle.  I'm
almost sick thinking that my Miata-ing is either limited or over now.
I can't even count the good times I've had with it.
My '90 first-month-of-production is at that point.  The tranny failed

Dear MX-5 aficionados,
I just bought my second MX-5 a couple of weeks ago: this time a  Grace
Green1996 NB with 90.000 miles and a full year of warranty that I bought
from a Mazda dealer here in Belgium.

The 1991 turbo 1.8 liter that I bought is still going well, car & driver
are both alive and uninjured. I have been driving it very carefully,
almost re-learning to drive the car. I spent 5 years with the ability to
give my miata near-maximum to maximum acceleration under almost ...

The '90 blew out it's heater core today. Someone posted an article showing
how to remove and replace the core without pulling the entire dash. I sure
would appreciate someone re-posting that link.
Thanks,

Can anybody please run a carfax history report for the vin number

I had to remove the front latches from my hardtop so I could
replace the plastic "bullet points" that seat into the plates
at the top of the windshield.  One of the latches came off and
went back on without a struggle, but the other was almost

Have a gas smell that's getting stronger since I 1st noticed it coming from
the engine a few weeks ago. I see no drips underneath the engin and the feul
gage *seems* to be on target for gas use. A new after market intake and
outtake was put in about a year 1/2 ago. Drives fine... ...

I posted this same question on Miata.net, but I'd like to get some input
from this board too.
I've read several threads on the topic of rollbars, but I'm hoping to find a
more definitive answer.
