Had my car in for a service on Friday, asked my mechanic to change out the driver's side engine mount as the car has recently started to clunk. The mount had been changed at 30,000km so I thought at...
It's not too much more than United Boost 98 (one cent per litre), but I would agree about fuel consumption. Mine might have actually been worse when compared to BP Ultimate, but that could have been...
Iin Australia, only 468 Mazda6's that were built between 2002 - 2003 are affected. 10 years is a bit old but good to see they take safety seriously!
Goes great! The car doesn't seem to start up quite as smoothly however.
Yes you can buy a box that plugs into the CD Changer port of the head unit. Depending on the brand/model, you can get AUX, iPod control, Bluetooth and USB. There are a number of brands available,...
That's 5.98 seconds for 0-60mph - 0-100km/h is 0-62mph. Official Mazda claims for Australian spec cars were 0-100km/h in 6.6 seconds.
It's probably the European model, judging by the use of the...
The MPS might return yet... Mazda6 MPS: mid-size performance flagship could return |Â*CarAdvice
Otherwise I'd have to agree on the Insignia, looks fantastic.
The fuel filter on the MPS is located in the tank and is scheduled for replacement at 150,000km from memory. My local Mazda dealer quoted about $600 for replacement as apparently the design means...
Ipod connector plugs straight into the car's CD changer port - there is no direct connection to the steering wheel controls. When you use the dash or steering wheel controls, the head unit sends...
Mine too :) I don't think they're bi-xenon on the 6 though
Xenons were standard on all Mazda6 MPS models including non-leather packs
I had PSS's and they were great. Smooth, great grip wet or dry, quiet. Shame I had to replace them 10,000km early as one developed a bulge in the inner sidewall.
I bought via Tirerack but got...
I am in Newcastle and will sell you mine if you would like

Megane RS265 should now be out and has been upgraded to 195kW
I am not sure how many of you noticed that the recent M Day sale excluded "Mazda3 300H models", or a teaser MPS3 image recently uploaded on the Mazda Australia Facebook, but I have suspected an...
Hi Pete, I ended up with DBA Street Series slotted and drilled rotors after the supplier offered them for the same price as standard rotors (which were out of stock). I have been running these with...
I've used Nulon Foaming Air Intake Cleaner about 3 or 4 times and I have never experienced the massive plumes of smoke as seen on YouTube. The last time we approached it a little differently and...
I noticed little to no difference, but if you've gone to the trouble to do the rest it doesn't cost a lot more and would finish the job off
That ban has since been overturned, although the requirement for 6% of all fuel sold in NSW to contain 10% ethanol remains: Premier bows to motorists on unleaded fuel
At the end of the day, the service schedule is 10,000km or 6 months (whichever comes first). If you fail to service your car in line with the manufacturer's recommendation, that will void your...
What about the new Impreza?
I wouldn't worry about 10,000km service intervals, that's what Mazda specify. Also there are supposedly issues with changing the oil too regularly, being a direct injected engine. I'm sure someone...
You can still put them in a car without side airbags, I would nearly buy a car just to install those seats :)
