Thank you for the video Klavs, very informative. How long did it take you to do the job?

[@KlavsX_]

👍 You are welcome. Without filming I would say 20 to 30 mins. For for me with filming was around 1:20 hr

[@chrismerrill5743]

Not bad man, nice video. Good job actually showing people torque specs! Thanks you

[@KlavsX_]

👍This video wouldn't have any meaning if you don't show the 2nd most important thing. 😆 You are welcome

[@CasSpell]

Again, you show everything you do! Dropping bolts, literally rocking that rocker cover and struggling with simple plastic tabs, but in the end the outcome turned out perfect 😊 My Mazda 6 may be a 2.0 with a RF7J engine, but the procedures you went through when installing the new gaskets and the gasket maker will be the same. I am glad you showed us how you used the gasket maker, because i could've forgotten about it if i did this job, which i am supposed to do very soon 😅

[@KlavsX_]

That's how a guide video should be. You see everything, the good and the bad. Good luck with the job and don't rush, if you do things properly nothing should go wrong.

Hey, do you have the same problem as I did? My steering always pulls to the left. It's supposed to be a childhood disease, do you know anything about it? My workshop said that some models have this and that the steering control unit would have to be completely renewed.

[@KlavsX_]

I had the same problem. To see if you can fix it, you can try to plug in a scan tool like an topdon, and do steering wheel recalibration. It is a problem with the GH models, plenty of owners fully replaced the system from a newer model. If you are lucky you can recalibrate the system and it will be awesome, or you have to replace parts.

[@masterjumpstyler1]

Thank you man! Is the issue at the newer models solved? What exactly needs to be exchanged? Can it be recalibrated with a Bluetooth OBD2 dongle?

[@KlavsX_]

the next model from GH, yes the steering rack don't break down like that. Sorry, I won't be able to say much as I haven't changed on my car, but what I heard/ read, the steering rack, the computer for it, and the shaft that goes in the car. As long as the Bluetooth dongle has the option for recalibration.

[@jordanb2769]

If it's only hard to turn one way. Disconnect battery. Track ion light will light up. Full lock steering both ways and light will go out. If issue persistents. Seek calibration. Typically torque sensor fails requiring new steering ack

[@HarySaBoji]

did u think about changing timing chain or its not necessary on these cars?

[@KlavsX_]

I have to change the timing chain. You do have to change the timing chain, usually recommended on every 100k, timing belt 60 k

[@HarySaBoji]

@@KlavsX_ from what i read on the internet even Mazda claim it has lifetime of an engine so u dont have to change it but we both know its bs. Im too scared to even change spark plugs but i guess im gonna do everything from watching ur video 😄

[@KlavsX_]

😏of course lifetime, They want the engines to last only 100k so you have to spend as much as possible to get a new engine. Start from easy jobs and go to more technical ones

[@masterofpuppets4495]

Thanx from Germany!

[@KlavsX_]

👌 Awesome. You are welcome

[@shina4898]

hello I'am from Taiwan I drive Mazda 6(GH) can you show how to change the brake light lamp Sorry my English is not good but I still you can see my message >_

[@KlavsX_]

Hello, Oh awesome from Taiwan. 👍 Yes, I can do that. To make the video will take some time, as I have many requests piled up. Your English is fine, as long as you try to communicate and learn, you will do great ✌

[@Amkara97]

Why ist there no Head gasket? Dont they Put it in the Mazda 6?

[@KlavsX_]

Head gasket is between the top of the engine block (top where the pistons) meet valves + injector and spark plug. In mechanic term's - between the engine block and the cylinder head. Every engine that has oil / coolant and has cylinder pressure has a head gasket.

[@Amkara97]

@@KlavsX_ So it is 1 Level deeper into the Motor?

[@KlavsX_]

you could say that, 1 level deeper with extra steps + extra needs, that are as important as the engine itself

[@robensiamendo558]

hi i have bought an android radio for my mazda 6 2011 ... and i installed on . everything works but no sound ... the car has a bose system ... do you have any ideas about

[@KlavsX_]

well there could be few things. 1) Check the settings and volume options 2) If you plugged the cables into the right ports 3) all wires should be plugged in the head unit, no wires from the car's side should be lose or not connected to the unit.

[@robensiamendo558]

@@KlavsX_ I dont have aux adapter cabel ? Do you think that's why there won't be any sounds

[@ericich.5769]

Hi can you show us how to change the timing belt ,I need to change mine .

[@KlavsX_]

Hi. I'm working on that, getting the founds and ordering parts. As I will do 1 huge video.

[@chrismerrill5743]

Not a belt! He just showed you a chain, but all the same I guess
