2004 Mazda RX-8 Logo

Anonymous Posted on May 05, 2011

Hi there, please can you help? I have a 2005 231bhp Rx8 thats not running properly. It is displaying fault code PO410, and the car will not rev, little better when cold but really struggles to get over 2000 rpm.Just coughs and splutters. Its not smoking or making any terrible noises. Took it to someone in Mazda , he says hes checked the coils and also changed the MAF sensor, but no difference. Hes suggesting a compression test as he thinks the engine is U/S but it ticks over fine, just wont rev. Any suggestions please? many thanks ken

I have a 2004 rx8 when you start it it runs great until it warms up & goes into limp mode. Turn it off & back on most of the time its fine for about a mile then back into limp mode. Please HELP

first option is to have the fault codes read
limp mode is activated by both the engine and transmission sensors
going to limp mode so quick could be an overheating problem , transmission vss/tcm problem or ECM fault
by reading the fault codes , you will get a better idea of the problem

have the fault codes read as it may be a combination of faulty sensors causing the problem. The ECM fault reporrting process is there for a purpose and that is to pinpoint the fault and to save money.

I have a 1990 4Runner A/T and solved the error #51 replacing the Throttle Sensor. Don't forget to connect a Ohmeter and adjust this sensor to its right ohmeter values for a properly installation, this sensor is not a PLUG & PLAY stuff. Oh, and the idle was fixed too.
