  • Mazda CX-30 - Extended warranty 8 Sep 2023 (Forum)
    I have been quoted around £350 to extend this for another year. I wasn't going to bother but got a call from Mazda warranty people yesterday to remind me it was now out of warranty and did I want to take out the extended warranty. It has made me think again about taking this out but should I stick to my original decision?

  • Mazda 6 - Sticking accelerator pedal 27 Apr 2012 (Forum)
    My accelerator pedal in my Mazda 6 is sticking - I have to press hard and then it 'snaps' to normal behaviour, which means I've essentially lost my fine throttle control.  It's worse in colder weather, which somehow doesn't surprise me.
  • Mazda 6 - ATF fluid 20 Jan 2012 (Forum)
    I have an 02 plate mazda 6, with a 4 speed autobox. I last checked the ATF dipstick approx 4 months ago (used to check every fortnight but it always stayed the same). and the level was around 1cm higher on the dipstick than it is now; I was curious to see if I had a leak so every day for the last week, before leaving for work - as soon as I've started the engine i've popped the hood and measured the ATF fluid level (parked in the same spot every time) and its always at the exact same place.
  • Mazda 6 - Sluggish performance 24 Dec 2011 (Forum)
    Hi there, I have an 02 plate mazda 6.  Over the last 5k miles or so the car has been feeling sluggish to me - not as 'peppy' as it used to.  The MPG is slightly down too but this is most likely due to the weather. It had it's last 'full' service 8k miles ago and an oil change 1k miles ago.
