SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
•To ensure efficient operation of the engine and all systems related to emission control, the ignition and fuel systems must
be serviced regularly. It is strongly recommended that all servicing related to these systems be done by an authorized
Mazda Dealer.
•After the described period, continue to follow the described maintenance at the recommended intervals.
•Refer below for a description of items marked* in the maintenance chart.
*1: If the vehicle is operated under any of the following conditions, change the engine oil and oil filter every 10,000 km
(6,250 miles) or shorter.
a. Driving in dusty conditions.
b. Extended periods of idling or low speed operation.
c. Driving for long period in cold temperatures or driving regularly at short distance only.
*2: Also inspect and adjust the power steering and air conditioner drive belts, if installed.
*3: If the brakes are used extensively (for example, continuous hard driving or mountain driving) or if the vehicle is
operated in extremely humid climates, change the brake fluid annually.

NO.21 ENGINE NOISEA6E408018881223
Diagnostic Procedure
21 ENGINE NOISE
DESCRIPTION•Engine noise under hood.
POSSIBLE
CAUSE•Engine internal damage
•Timing belt displacement
•Fuel injector malfunction
•Loose attaching bolts or worn parts
•Improper drive belt tension
•Air leakage from intake-air system
•Incorrect injection timing
•Erratic signal from CKP sensor
•Erratic signal from CMP sensor
•Fuel pressure sensor or related circuit malfunction
•Boost sensor or related circuit malfunction
•Accelerator position sensor or related circuit malfunction
•MAF/IAT sensor or related circuit malfunction
•ECT sensor or related circuit malfunction
•EGR system or malfunction
•IAT sensor No.2 or related circuit malfunction
•Vacuum leakage
•Suction control valve malfunction (built-in supply pump)
•Air leakage from intake-air system
•Air in power steering fluid line
•Turbocharger operating noise
•Solenoid valve operating noise
Warning
The following troubleshooting flow chart contains the fuel system diagnosis and repair
procedures. Read the following warnings before performing the fuel system services:
•Fuel vapor is hazardous. It can easily ignite, causing serious injury and damage. Always keep
sparks and flames away from fuel.
•Fuel line spills and leakage are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injury or death
and damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete “BEFORE
REPAIR PROCEDURE” and “AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE” described in this manual.
Note
•PCM checks fuel injection amount during a set interval while idling, and automatically corrects it to
maintain engine efficiency. It is normal that engine noise and vibration might be a little louder during
this process.
STEP INSPECTION RESULTS ACTION
1 Is squeal, click or chirp sound present? Yes Inspect engine oil level, solenoid valves installation or
drive belt.
No Go to next step.
2 Is rumble or grind sound present? Yes Inspect drive belt tension or power steering system
fluid level.
If okay, perform power steering fluid line air bleed.
No Go to next step.
3 Is rattle sound present? Yes Inspect location of rattle for loose parts.
No Go to next step.
4 Is hiss sound present? Yes Inspect for vacuum leakage and intake-air system
leakage.
No Go to next step.
5 Is rap or roar sound present? Yes Inspect exhaust system or loose parts.
No Go to next step.

ELECTRONIC 4WD CONTROL SYSTEM
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTICA6E632227100208Outline
•The on-board diagnostic function allows for detecting malfunctions in the input/output signals when the ignition
key is at the ON position.
•The DLC-2, which combines the failure detection and detection maintenance connectors, has been adopted to
improve serviceability. By connecting a WDS or equivalent to the DLC-2, malfunction diagnosis can be carried
out.
•Using a WDS or equivalent DTCs can be retrieved or erased, depending on the screen display, thus improving
serviceability.
Block diagram
.
Self-diagnostic function
Failure detection function
•The failure detection function detects malfunctions in the input/output signal systems of the 4WD CM and
displays them when the ignition key is at the ON position.
•When the ignition key is turned to the ON position, the 4WD CM system begins operation, and the 4WD
warning light illuminates for 3 seconds while the function checks for open circuits. At the same time the function
monitors the condition of the power supply voltage and checks for internal malfunctions.
•Then, once the system is running, the function checks the operating conditions of the 4WD solenoid and the
differential oil temperature sensor at regular intervals to determine whether there is any malfunction.
•If any malfunction is detected during these diagnostic tests, the warning light illuminates according to the
malfunction to alert the driver. Also, a DTC is output to DLC-2 via the CAN line. Also, at the same time the
failure detection result is sent to the memory and fail-safe functions.
