This concern is likely to occur when driving at speeds between 37-50 mph (60-80 km/h) with the ATF at normal operating temperature. The noise is caused by stick/slip between the oil seal at the transaxle and the dust cover of the drive shaft. To correct this issue, the thickness of the dust cover has been increased.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2018/MC-10145248-9999.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2018/MC-10145248-0001.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10145248","components":[{"id":"powertrain","name":"Transmission and driveline","parent":null},{"id":"driveshaft","name":"Driveshaft","parent":"powertrain"}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"MAZDA","model":"CX-3","year_from":2016,"year_to":2018,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2016_mazda_cx-3","2017_mazda_cx-3","2018_mazda_cx-3"]},{"make":"MAZDA","model":"CX-5","year_from":2013,"year_to":2018,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2013_mazda_cx-5","2014_mazda_cx-5","2015_mazda_cx-5","2016_mazda_cx-5","2017_mazda_cx-5","2018_mazda_cx-5"]},{"make":"MAZDA","model":"MAZDA3","year_from":2012,"year_to":2018,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2012_mazda_mazda3","2013_mazda_mazda3","2014_mazda_mazda3","2015_mazda_mazda3","2016_mazda_mazda3","2017_mazda_mazda3","2018_mazda_mazda3"]},{"make":"MAZDA","model":"MAZDA6","year_from":2014,"year_to":2018,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2014_mazda_mazda6","2015_mazda_mazda6","2016_mazda_mazda6","2017_mazda_mazda6","2018_mazda_mazda6"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
