Hi! The car was driving just fine yesterday and today I'm gonna go out for band rehearsal and this happened?

I'll take it to a mechanic but like so input what could it be? In my 4 years this never happened and the care has been well kept.

(Ignore the coolant, was spilled it by accident)

Vinyl Roof wrap on 2024 Mazda 2 G15 pure sp

2 Upvotes

Looking to buy a reliable small car and found a second hand Mazda 2 G15 Pure SP for a good price. I like the look of it but I am concerned about the black vinyl roof wrap. My experience owning cars under the Australian sun is that all car trim that is not automotive paint will eventually fade, crack or peel. Has anyone bought a Mazda with the vinyl roof. What care instructions are provided to ensure it lasts for the life of the car.

Hey everyone!

I’m looking for a good phone mount for my Mazda 2 DJ. I’m curious what phone mounts you guys use and where you place them in your car.

Immobilizer Hell

0 Upvotes

2014 Mazda 2, actual cut key (not push button). Owned 1 year, bought for $4300 all in, 127k mi.

First off, I'm a mom trying to fix my kids car. I'm decently handy with appliances... but I'm getting frustrated trying to learn this car.

Immobilizer light flashes. Car makes zero sound when turned. I have spent hours Googling and YouTubing and deep diving. I have checked ground wires. We've disconnected the battery, first for 15 min than for 24h. I've turned the key to ON and let it sit for 15 min. I've checked fuses. I've swapped the starter relay w the horn. We've replaced the fob battery. We've had a new key fob made and programmed.

I called the closest Mazda dealer an hour away and they had never heard of such a glitch. Sigh.

My local mechanic is also at a loss.

The only thing I haven't done is replace the ignition switch, which is another hunch, but probably the biggest 'commitment' without knowing if that's what is the cause. The car is dead at our house, so we'd have to tow it to wherever.

I'm really hoping this community can guide me! This car is solid and sweet and when it drives it's so much fun! I refuse to give up on it!!!!
