You and me both (my wife moreso since it's her baby). lol

 

when i sit in my car i i listen closely i can hear a lite ticking sound but that same sound is the same continuous tinking i hear when i pop my hood like the video i posted here eariler. its much louder when i pop my hear of course. Not sure if that's the sound u are hearing. I only can hear it at idle or at a stoplight but nothing when im driving ( also due to the road noise that the 3's have i got Michelin MXV4 tires to try to minimize it but its just how our car is made...o wells..lol )

And.....1yr 3mo bump! Wife told me last week that she started hearing the same noise again. Of course I checked my records and found that I had it fixed in March of 2013 so the warranty is not valid.

Thought I'd post in here to see if any others are still experiencing this or if anyone had it fixed, as I did and it came back. Have to wonder if Mazda got enough complaints of this to revise the tensioner? I'll be checking into that before replacing it.
