Wife and I both have 2010 Mazda 3 - one Auto and one manual.

Both make this noise and have been trying to get it fixed by dealer forever now. We ended up driving out of our warranty and had to call Mazda corporate to complain. Today my wife got her car back after they insisted that:

-Mazda 3 do not have sub frame bushings (lol!)
-It was the Sway Bar bushings

We let them fix the sway bar bushings as that's what they had reported to Mazda Corp as being the problem. Guess what? Still makes the noise. Going back in Friday.

Does anyone have a link to the actual TSB, or the TSB# by chance?
