Quote from: alxlaw;623395hmm! excellent info guys! ill have to get my head down there tonight if it stops raining, how is it linked to the steering wheel?

The passive rear steer isn\'t linked to the steering wheel - it only acts on the rear suspension using toe steer:
 
QuoteMazda also introduced the Dynamic Suspension System Monitoring (DTSS) in the 2nd generation RX-7. The revised independent rear suspension incorporates special control of the feet that are capable of introducing a degree of passive rear steering under cornering loads.

Buzzer is coolant, I did change the antifreeze, plugs and HT leads the day before you got it so it just needs a top up. It should not use any water but always check regulary.

Have you checked your tyres? never had a problem with rear end steer at all but could be a worn bush of some sort.
make sure that the rod is connected to the turbo from the wastegate, the little circlip is common to corrode or fall out.
The smell of fuel could be a few things, as this was never apparent when i had it or during the test drive with roof down then check you have replaced the fuel filler cap?
other than that a smell of fuel could be a sticky injector or a bad ECU signal to the injector.

Glad you still happy with the car, a lot of people wanted that one from this forum.

hiya pete! yea still chuffed with it, im sure ital bee reet ill put all my faith into wgt hopefully they\'ll come up trumps!

also i rolled 1ft over a red light speed camera at around 3 in the morning yesterday - didnt for one second think it would flash for literally 1ft - so you might get a ticket through the door if so throw it my way ill dispute it in court if necessary bloody ridiculous, what danger am i posing at 1ft over a line?!? was no crossing, and i was certainly no obstruction or a green box for cyclists and surely 18wheelers and other long vehicles regularly bla bla...... anyway just thought id let you no publicly so you dont think im likely to do a runner or you leaving you with the points (i did have a clean licence...grrrr)

coolent seemed pretty sweet tbh right level and temp was the same?

If the coolant is topped up then try manipulating the wire on top of the rad, I have only just replaced that on my orange FC as they do start to break away a bit too easily over time. I have put some good strong windscreen sealant on top of where the wire attaches to the sensor, stops it moving around and breaking.

Have you sent the docs off yet for the car?
