    Hi guys, I have a 2021 Mazda 3 HB Turbo and noticed this high pitch noise going at highway speeds, mostly at 75-80mph. It's like a constant high pitch, and I can sort of hear at lower speeds at like 60-75mph. Anyone have this before? Any idea what the source is or is it normal? Here's a video...

    Hello fam ! Does anybody know what could cause this clunking/popping noise only at low speeds when hitting a rougher surface- bumps, dips, stone roads (under 10-15 MPH) ? The position of the steering wheel doesn’t matter, it happens either with wheels straight or turned. The noise can be heard...

    Hello, I write this post in case you have the same problem I had with the radio on my Mazda 3. For a while, especially in summer, all FM radio stations had a background buzz similar to static. This problem only occurs with FM radio, all other options (BT, CD, AM) worked perfectly. After days...

    Roughly 3,000 miles ago I changed the pads (Mazda), turned the rotors, and flushed the fluid. Now I'm hearing this weird pop/springy/scrunchy sound in my right passenger rear. Does it sound familiar to anyone? TIA

    Non-Bose system. Upgraded Alpine Component speakers in the front only.* 2018 Mazda 3, but most Mazda's have been using this TAU (Tuner Amplifier Unit) for over a decade now. Even with the car off, in accessory mode, once the infotainment system boots up, a high frequency (10kHz) hiss appears...

    I recently started my car and heard a loud noise coming from the engine. It went away/quieted down, so I drove the 5-10 minutes back home. I go out the next day and I still hear a noise, not like it was though. Seems to kinda come and go. Drove it for a few minutes to see if it went away, and...

    Just bought a 2019 Mazda 3 HB yesterday and took it to the highway the first time today. It's very quiet but I noticed that there is a kind of squeaky wind noise on the passenger side. I'm sure it's from the B pillar, seat belt area. When the speed is below 40mph it's gone. Above 50mph is quite...

    2014 2.0 Hatchback Every now and then (usually on warmer days) I'll hear a whistling noise in the cabin after releasing the clutch. It usually happens after sitting at a light when the clutch pedal is depressed for longer than just changing gears. I'm assuming its something venting but the...
