  • Mazda Premacy (2000 - 2004) - 00 2.0 Intermittent power loss. 25 Mar 2009 (Forum)
    Then it happened a third time and the problem persisted for several miles, to the consternation of my wife who was in the car on her own at the time. The car is currently in the local Mazda dealer, whom I have no confidence in at all. I took it there on the assumption that they could plug in a computer and look up the fault, but apparently they cannot do that, and instead seem intent on replacing the engine one piece at a time until they find the broken bit.

  • Mazda - Michelin tyres - Pilot Primacy or Energy? 17 Jan 2008 (Forum)
    The two rear tyres on my Mazda 626 2.0 petrol were getting worn, so as I had a new (purchased by previous owner 2007) Pilot Primacy spare I decided to buy another so as to have a decent set of new rears. My local tyre dealer gave me a written quotation for one of these...I said yes...I paid & picked up last night in the pouring rain and dark, but today I saw he had fitted a Michelin 'Energy'.

    Im thinking about converting my stock halogen bulbs in my mazda 6 to HID's. Although a straight 'plug and play' is not that bad in the mazda 6 (with an anti glare mod) i'd rather do it properly and get some HID projectors with a better cut-off and avoid blinding other road users.
