- Power steering belt replacement
While driving on the highway, I heard a snap and then smelled something burning.
Checked under the hood and found the belt had snapped.
Mazda had warned me during an inspection that the belt was in rough shape, so it was only a matter of time.
I drove without power steering for a while, but eventually couldn’t take it anymore and did the swap.
None of the bolts were seized, so the replacement went smoothly, but since I’m not used to setting the tension, I wasn’t sure if I got it right.
