• Mazda 3 1.6 Petrol 05 Plate - Low Rev Vibration and Ambient Temperature Problems 26 Apr 2010 (Forum)
  I own a 1.6l Petrol 05 Plate Mazda 3 with just under 60,000 miles on the clock that over the last few months has been causing a few headaches: Recently whilst waiting at lights or in traffic jams I have found that the engine seems to be vibrating a lot more than usual, to the extent that at times it feels like the engine is about to stall, this occurs whether the car is in neutral as well as it's in gear with the clutch depressed.
• Some YT Petrolhead fodder! 14 Feb 2023 (Forum)

• Honda/Toyota - Used SUV auto 30 Jun 2020 (Forum)
  Or the conventional torque converters are better suited? CRVs and RAV4s are what I am considering at the moment.  Heard Mazda patrols are not so good! Anything else out there?
• engine designs-what the future holds 13 Sep 2016 (Forum)
  At the time it was seen as the future and a major advancement to the internal combustion engine. What happened? I know that Mazda make a car with a rotary engine, but if it had such potential why was it not truly developed on a larger scale? I am not a mechanical engineer but the concept sounds very good. Any comments? Cheers Concrete  
• 5 year old approved used or new? 9 May 2014 (Forum)
  Hello, I am 31 yo, would like to buy my first car and will be doing 8-10k annually. My budget is around 5k. I have found a 5 yo approved used Mazda 2 with 60k mileage on the clock. The insurance will come around £1600. If I increase my budget to 6k, I might buy a new suzuki alto or dacia sandero. Which one would be a better choice?

• £3k budget suggestions 7 Mar 2013 (Forum)
  Ive got around a £3k budget, wife and 2 kids, commute to work about 30 miles a day and the usual pottering around.  Ive looked at Mazda 6 as they seem cheapish and could possibly get up to an 05 for the budget, BMW 316/8 on a 52 plate but have hit a block on anything else.  Any thoughts and suggestion would be appreciated.

  I have a mate selling his avensis - 03/53 plate with104k on the clock and FSH - and he's letting me have it at a knock-down price Although I love my (petrol) mazda 6 - looking at the fuel saving with this avensis is making it tempting for me (I do 22k miles a year)

• How would a high torque/lowish power car feel? 28 Feb 2009 (Forum)
  A hypothetical question here for the techies. I remember back in the mid 90s a supercharged Mazda 626 Diesel that only had 70 bhp but quite high torque. So let's imagine a car with say 90 BHP from 2-2.5 litres but with say 280 lb ft of torque. What would it feel like on the road? I'm not that technical but would be interesting to read your views.
