Mazda MX-5 Miata Parts

With a history spanning more than three decades, the Mazda MX-5 Miata is a classic sports car that has seen four generations. Every generation bettered the one before it while keeping its lightweight design and fun-to-drive mindset. The first version of this car (NA, 1989-1997) introduced the world to the Mazda MX-5 Miata with a 1.6L inline 4-cylinder engine that had fuel injection and either a 5-speed manual or an automatic transmission that you could opt-in for. All these features combined created a very affordable sports car with great performance. When the second generation (NB, 1998-2005) arrived on the scene, major improvements were made. This included fixed headlights instead of pop-ups, a slightly bigger body, and anti-lock brakes as an option. The third generation (NC, 2006-2015) is where this sports car got its big makeover but also kept some of its previous features. It was redesigned significantly and provided a new choice between having either a 5- or 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission, all powered by their MZR I4 engine, which had around double that amount of horsepower as their original model. The hardtop was also introduced in this era, which allowed for easy top retractability without taking up any trunk space. Lastly, whenever the Mazda MX-5 Miata's fourth iteration hit the market (ND, 2016-now), they once again optimized weight reduction to help boost performance while making sure not to sacrifice the overall quality of their "Jinba Ittai" philosophy. Throughout every change made to the Mazda MX-5 Miata during each of its versions, we can still find internal combustion engines under their hood, with technical upgrades pushing around about 200 horsepower while still clutching onto rear-wheel drive capabilities and mainly sticking to manual transmissions. The Mazda MX-5 Miata has always been aimed at driving enthusiasts by offering an affordable sports car with the excellent driving experience possible. Every generation has contributed to the Mazda MX-5 Miata being the most-sold two-seat convertible sports car ever, something Mazda takes a lot of pride in.

While it's long been known for being a fun car to drive and reliable, the Mazda MX-5 Miata has had some problems that tend to repeat across many model years and hurt its longevity and owner satisfaction. Namely, paint chipping and clear coat delamination have been major issues with both the 2016 and 2000 models, respectively. Vehicle owners would notice their cars' paint simply falling off in chunks after only minor wear. The result is an ugly aesthetic that leaves them no choice but to either repaint or apply protective coatings to fix it. Another problem lies within the engine performance, with this issue coming from sticking valve lash adjusters due to unkept oil changes. The result of this issue is quite noticeable when cranking up your car, as drivers will immediately hear a loud ticking noise coming from within the engine, especially if it's cold out. This isn't any easier on wallets, as drivers are forced to replace these valve lash adjusters while also sticking strictly to oil-changing schedules. Leaks in specific structural components interact with rusting metal, which compromises the vehicle's integrity and comfortability while driving. A problem that tends to come from inadequate sealing and body component deterioration, anyone facing this issue is required to check everything thoroughly before making significant repairs or replacements on any affected parts of their Mazda MX-5 Miata.
