Mine was clicking and now my right side doesn't blow cold air when I turn on the ac. Is this what I need?
yeah sounds like it. Are there 2 sounds clicking? The hot/cold is one that switches and then I believe there's another blend actuator for the vent system

Great video!
I highly suggest using a sub woofer with the DML's. I prefer the Dayton Audio DAEX25x4-4 quad/ spider cage exciters, had good luck with them. I also suggest spacing the speakers farther apart and play with proximity to the back wall. For anyone building these I just use coarse thread screws directly screwed into the foam to hang the speakers - no adhesive involved and no issues even with the heavier quad exciters. Cheers
Lol. The plastic cap backed off the unit. I thought it was broken and almost bought a new one
Nice save!
Appreciate the content on the 2 door trim piece removal - everything I found was for the 4door before ya! Gotta pull mine to run some helix wiring in the coming weeks.
Great to hear it was helpful, that's the point!
Thanks I took it to the dealer and it was the fill plug seal they said it would splash over and it was leaking from that 130 dollars no more transmission leak
Great to hear!
Hi question yes yesterday I noticed couple of spots of transmission fluid on the floor. I cleaned the floor put the car out side for about 2 hrs put cardboard on the floor ln the garage and put the car back in the garage looked under the car don’t see anything wet and no fluid on the cardboard. Sucks I’ll go to Mazda today to check the fluid how do you check it or is there an indication light something tells you that you have transmission warning it’s crazy thanks You mentioned the check to see if it’s full how won’t it come out if you pull the plug? And if I put jack under car won’t it give false reading?
the only way i know to check the fluid level is to pull the plug when at running temp and try to add fluid. if it runs out immediately its full.

You might think only "successful" builds are worth posting, but this is useful as you did what all DML starters will do, the foam panels, and will get not great results. Its always the bass missing. I read you should frame your panels, like with a rectangle of wood around the back, to get bass. The whole audio scene is new to me "crossovers, impedance and ohms, oh my!" lol. I will try a few things but liked for your effort.
This explains it all right here…. 1. 240k plus miles- it runs perfect 2. 4/5 owners n still like this? 3. No other car can do this! 4. I own a mint 13’ prht in SF- 5. 10 on a 10 scale😂 Cons? Wife nor hound can fit! Oops- that’s a good thang🎉🎉
That's a 1976 not 1977 or later.
Really helpful video even for ND owners. Good work
Can someone help me with the proper part number for this exact issue but on a 2017 Passat SE?
I found the part. Question is do I need to spend $125 on OEM or can I buy the $37 aftermarket Santech?
HVAC Blend Door Actuator Part Number: 561907511B Supersession(s): 561-907-511-B I think this is the VW Part Number you need. You should be able to narrow down on price from here. I hope it helps.
Jajaja
Love you men thank you
So air fuel screw must be turns 1.5 or 2?
Thanks so much! This was the only video I could find on how to do this job without taking the car apart! Took me maybe 20min with your help. I heard your voice in my head when I was dealing with the top screw ("be patient, you will get it") and I sure did lol. My tip for the next guy, I ordered a low profile wrench from Amazon for under $10 to get that top screw and it worked like a charm. All around under $40 and less than hour for a potential $800 repair.
Thanks!
Hope this helped?!
Dude, you made the best video for this job on TH-cam! I like that you also showed any mistakes or problems along the way. I have a 2017 ND Automatic Miata. Do you know if the NC and ND use the same transmission?
thank you for that great compliment! My understanding it the transmissions between the generations are different. I don't have knowledge of how different they are.
Same case, different torque converter. Otherwise the fluid is the same, and maintenance should be approached in the same way
@ADUSN Thanks. Just finished mine. I did a lot of research and found that Idemitsu Type TLS synthetic fluid is the absolute best. Also, there is a line pressure valve adjustment on the valve body that can be adjusted to a higher setting with just a flathead screwdriver and without taking the valve body out. I adjusted mine and can feel about a 10%-15% improvement in shifting firmness. If you drop the pan, there is no reason not to adjust this setting. Next step would be a shift kit but that could make it too harsh for normal driving.
@@DaveSimkus Good Info, we've discussed this on the Miata forums but nice to hear from someone who did the work on an ND 👍
@@DaveSimkus Great info thank you!
Where did you buy the replacement for the door sill. I am not having any luck. Husband removed during speaker replacement and the LED strip ripped. Can’t find replacement parts.
I found it through a VW dealership online. Ill have to look back to see who
Look it up under " Door Scuff Plate" and add which side of the car that needs it. You'll get results youre looking for
Where are you located?
Outside Phoenix, AZ
how did you remove the washers?
Do you have to tune your Mk6 GTI after installing high flow drop in air filter with everything else stock
No Sir!
All this shit wanst an issue 15 years ago when there was a cable from the knob to the door flap. Did they need to reinvent the wheel by coming up with stupid electronically controled motors?
I’m in Az. Can you help me do bike work on my TRX 450 lol 😅
All of those servomotors are the same for a 2015 GTI S, I have several damaged ones but I don't know how many in total it has and finally does this cause the air to not cool properly?
There are tab least 2 servo motors. 1 to change from warm air to cool air. the 2nd is the change which vents the air come out. if the servo that changes from warm air to cool air ( like in this video ) doesn't work it will only stay warm or cool and not change between them.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH I NEED THE SERVO TO CHANGE WARM TO COLD AND THE RECIRCULATORCAN YOU GIVE ME THE CORRECT FOR MY GTI 2015 S@@knowgearsknowglory2862
I couldn’t find many videos for miata auto, thanks so much for it!
I certainly hope it help, you're welcome!
Amazingly detailed video, thank you for sharing. My 08 MX5 has just about 120,000 miles... probably time to due a fluid change. 😅
I hope this helps if you attempt it!
How did you fix the last mount? The one closest to the plastic front bumper directly under the headlight? It has 2 bolts. Mine was bent back, so I need to know how to properly bend it back into place. Thank you in advance !
Its been a minute since this fix. I had to play with all the mounts to finesse it all into place.you may have to get creative too used on your circumstances
@@knowgearsknowglory2862 thank you for the reply! I appreciate it! I’ll do my best!
Such a good video 🫶🏼
The part is called Scuff Plate, for the 4 door version the part number is 5GM853369JDAT
Hi everyone I drive the automatic mx5 and it goes around corners just as well as the manual I drive the automatic due to an accident at work and my left leg no longer works like it should. I have had many automatics over the years and the mx5 box’s work spot on and been very happy with the way it works. My previous car was a Porsche 2.7 tiptronic and I find the mx5 just as much fun as that car with the added advantage of cheaper service costs and more reliable. Don’t knock the automatic until you have tried it. Mines just turned 40.000 miles and it’s a 2011 so I think it’s maybe due at 50.000 that’s another three years for me lol.
I have a 2017 automatic MX-5 and I agree with you, the modern automatic is actually really good. It shifts fast and there is less delay in sound which makes it sound better than a manual when shifting, in my opinion. The NC Miata is nice but if you ever get a chance, try the ND.
Xlnt! 13’ prht Bay Area owner in copper red with 43k- 2nd owner a/t- I do miss the clutch but man traffic & 65 in November? I’d buy a new one np but theft is always an issue here- No like the new hard top offering tho nothing like them. I’ve owned 4
The arm says USE PULLER So use puller
Hi bro how many quarter you add 4 or 5 ?
it was right in-between. the amount of fluid will vary. The trans will hold some fluid inside so the amount you put back in will vary.
It's simple science. When the trans oil pan and filter are removed the refill capacity will be a specific amount. So far I haven't found an experienced transmission mechanic who has created a proper video that covers this critical fluid volume. Yikes!
1976 by the looks - metal tank, exhaust down the right side…
Its Titled as a '77. there were a lot of changes within the '76, '77' 78 model years
What’s is the part number for the ngk plug?
(98069-58916)
Hey friend, Kirk here. The Crackling you hear, are most likely Distortion, because you have them so close together, there sound waves are hitting each other and trying to cancel each other !
great tip thank you !!
sorry thats just wrong on so many levels. waves that 'hit' each other dont distort they simply add up. distortion is either 1. from amp (unlikely) 2. from speakerdriver/exciter (very likely) 3. from panel or combination of driver - panel relationship. distortion increases the harder you drive a speaker
I replaced it but it won’t turn, struggles to turn the gear it’s supposed to turn
hmmm, not sure what causes that.
Odometer close to 30.000 miles?
Not sure what you're asking.
Good job! Bro. Thanks for explanation.
What about your washer hose
💋 Promo'SM
how did you get the petcock to come out???
I had to remove the tank completely and remove the bolts holding it in. I don't recall it being too difficult or complicated.
Thanks a lot man!! very useful
I have this problem in a 2014 passat, but no foam remnants , so is it likely the actuator?
Its difficult to say for sure but very likely. Can you look up under the dash while the issues happens?
Well at least I know where the led strip plug clip is now, mine is either un plugged itself or I will have to order a new one if broken as the led light stopped working on drivers side for me.😢😢 edit: OK mines broken whats the part called? The led strip with the rear cup holder? I'm having trouble finding one to order.
Its actually pretty simple just a little time consumptive to replace.
Where did you buy the replacement?
I purchased it from my local Ford dealer. I looked all over the internet and shipping costs were outrageous. it was much cheaper buying it locally.
Where did you order the replacement? Ty
Gracias por el video tengo una moto igual. Lavare el carburador.
