Cuz I went to the dealer and they tell me time and time again the part doesnt exist and I need to buy a whole new pump assembly.

They dont exactly let me climb the counter so there isnt much I can do without a part # :/

Someone mentioned buzzing during a hard corner and the alt light coming on. You sure it wasn't the oil light? Because you will get a buzz and an oil light if you corner hard and don't have enough oil in the motor.

I've heard a couple of stories about a turbo 2 and an fd both blowing engines from fuel starvation because they were both at a 1/4 tank..

It can happen...

Should you use the Mazda filter only? I know that for some stuff you should only use Mazda parts. I guessing this isnt the case since no one has mentioned it, but I was just makaing sure.
On a side note, I was riding in a 360 Modena Challenge that ran out of gas halfway around Texas World Speed way.

Dont bother using something to prolong the life of the filter, and dont bother looking for an aftermarket one!

It's $8.31 from Malloy Mazda, and lasts over 100,000 miles.

That particular one is for an S5. As I was driving, my pump started dying, I made it to my friend Jon's house, but it was 30 mins to get back to my house, and I didnt want to even try it on a failing pump. So I just replaced my pump with one from an FD he had lying around. So now I have this spare, clean filter, if anyone needs it

(Psst, Max, your filter is prolly old . . . . )
