    HI All

    I have a 93 Mazda as my daily runner that just failed the nct on a leaky exhaust, 2 rear shocks and a hole in the wheel arch.

    Shes my daily runner and pride and joy so want to keep her on the road but I cant source parts anywhere which is to be expected.

    It'd be a shame to scrap it as the engine is still solid.

    I'm hoping that there maybe someone here who might know someone or point me in some direction to source parts?

    I would be extremely grateful for any help.

    If motorfactors can't get anything for you then I'd try websites like winparts or even Facebook groups are very handy for that

    Must be an nct thing for mazdas. I had an exact same car fail for the exact same faults. Shocks , leaky exhaust and a small nail size hole in the bottom of the wheel arch. Even though the computer found perfect results for all four shocks, alignment front and back axle, their fail for the shocks was visual. tester said they appeared to be the original shocks and probably were due to be changed😲


    I was shocked and blew a gasket with the tester, but left anyway.


    Great car.
