Re: Throttle Body Hissing

I had it in diagnostic mode when I did all the idle adjustments. I have the stock intake only. The idle seems to be just fine now that I have set it all up. It just didn't hiss prior to me cleaning and adjusting it and then all of a sudden it was hissing.

Re: 1994 MX3 1.6 DOHC AT Problems

Sorry, I failed to mention that it was doing this before and I have already changed the transmission filter and fluid (well pan fluid that is) which was about 1.5 to 2 litres of fluid. I am going to check the vacuum lines today and pull the TB and clean up the IAC circuit and reset the IAA and adjus...

1994 MX3 1.6 DOHC AT Problems

Hi all, When i put my transmission into gear, any gear, the idle drops down to 100 ish and then usually stalls out. When I can catch it by giving it some throttle, it will then clunk into gear and I can get her up to 3 to 4k RPM and the car is accelerating very very slow. I don't know but this may b...

1994 MX3 1.6 DOHC Please help

I bought a 1994 mx3 6 months ago as it was smoking badly out the exhaust. I was told that it had been taken to a mechanic and they were told the headgasket was shot. So I pulled off the head and the gasket looked a bit worn so I replaced it as well as getting the head re-done. So I have it all back ...

Transmission shifting

Hey all, When I put my transmission into R, D, or any gear it doesn't go into gear until i give it a little gas and then it will shift into gear and move just fine. I have checked the fluid and it is topped up. I am getting a Hold code of 06 but I am sure that this is because it is detecting that it...

How come everywhere I look I see stuff for 1990-1993 MX3 and then 1995 MX3 but not the 1994 MX3? Second can anyone tell me what the cylinder compression should be for th...
