  • Mazda 3 - Slight bouncing / bumping feeling at speed 20 Apr 2019 (Forum)
    There are no unusual noises coming from the car at all, gear changes are fine, no unusual wear patterns on tyres, driveshafts and CV boots look fine, it's very strange. Not owning a Mazda before I didn't know if this was a trait of Mazda's, or whether I should be looking at anything else as to what might be causing this. I don't know if loosing a wheel balance weight or two might be causing this.

  • Mazda 6 - Idling and low rev torubles 18 Jun 2013 (Forum)
    I have bought a second hand 2004 Mazda 6 2.0td ts2  with just under 90k miles on the clock. It has service history (not dealer) and all looked good, up until it started stalling for no reason while sat at idle. First thing was to run a full tank of fuel with injector cleaner in as the car had been sat for a while unused.
  • Mazda 6 - 2l petrol Mazda 6 stalling at junctions 11 Mar 2013 (Forum)
    My 55-plate 2l petrol Mazda 6 has started stalling when approaching junctions and when putting the clutch in or coasting for short distances at slow speeds (in car parks or traffic queues for example) When this happens, the revs drop below the normal idling range (650-700), bounce up and down and the car then sometimes stalls once they get below around 500.
  • Time for a change ...................... 21 Jul 2007 (Forum)
    We do around 7-10K miles a year, made up of the school run and commuting a short distance during the week with longer trips 150-200 miles/day at the weekend (seaside etc). I've narrowed it down to a choice of 2 new cars and a "wildcard" 2nd hand choice: 1. Mazda 6 2.0 petrol Katano - New (£14995 otr) the Mazda drives well, has loads of kit and the cost to change is £5110. 2. Toyota Avensis 2.0 D4D Colour collection - New (£14685 otr) the toyota is a lot softer than the mazda, but is easy enough to drive.
