Mazda 6 speaker fix

How to fix the Mazda 6 speaker rattling sound in the fancy Bose audio system.

[@DevilDogg119]

Great video! - It is amazing how many people have had this same issue with the Mazda 6 Bose Speakers. I agree with David Gross's comment below - This is definitely a manufacturing/design defect. It would be nice if Mazda issued a recall to fix the issue.

[@Floweaver]

Its a problem with all of the Bose Speakers in the Mazda cars . The lower spec speakers work fine.

[@ColinTheCarGuy]

Unbelievable lol 45 minutes to an hour and I had both front doors pulled apart, speakers out and super glued, and all put back together. Sounds brand new! Thank you

[@davidgross2137]

The rip off car stereo repair shop want $240 to replace my Mazda 6 speaker. I fixed it for $8. Nice post! Mazda should recall this as it is the same for all their cars. .

[@mariodelgado5997]

David Gross same problem and same fix, agree, Mazda should accept this failure and with no cost

[@mttrhll1]

@@mariodelgado5997 Agree 100% - it affects the mazda 3 bose as well, that rust/corrosion is clearly a manufacturing defect. Mazda customer service did try to help get this fixed for me out of warranty for like $140... mazda has so many good things going for it and they are letting stupid stuff like this ruin there reputation and ownership experience.

[@y0ggie]

Wow! I told my wife she damaged the speakers when listening music way to loud. This really worked and my wife is innocent! Thank you!

[@GoldieReddSpits]

Thanks bro.... both of my wife's front speakers just started doing this last week & I was about to replace them. Everyone should cashapp you $10 bucks for this info 💯

[@koalsin2]

Thanks for the tutorial, had the same issue for a 2014 Mazda 3 with the Bose system. Same driver side speaker. Parts were going to be around 100+, I just put some sealant on the back part that was detached, and put some foam there to hopefully stop and water penetration and now it looks like the issue is solved.

[@awolandy]

Thanks for uploading this. Just sorted both sides of mine. Both were completely detached. Sounds awesome now, wish I’d done it ages ago!

[@ha5mth]

You are a legend! Thank you from Australia 👍

[@si9114]

Thanks! Very useful video. Same problem by Mazda 6 in Belgium.

[@gagandeepdublahar3687]

Thanks bro! Saved $600 bucked. Keep up the good work

[@fabiobosi4763]

Hi mate! Your video has been really helpful for me! I fixed my speaker and saved a lot of money!!! Cheers, Fabio.

[@josephchambers2243]

Thanks for this, just repaired my daughters speakers, I used fix all high strength silicone & clothes pegs..

[@leahgibson430]

Thank you! I managed to fix mine myself. This tutorial is great and easy to follow!

[@georgetaban1467]

Thanks man, managed to fix mine thanks to your video 👍

[@IRTEHLEETOKNPBB]

Great step by step mate. Helped lot of lads here it seems. I would recommend buying 5-10 mazda 6 door clips on ebay or amazon for 5-6€ because you will most likely going to rip them off.

[@emilylloyd5377]

Exactly the video I needed thank you

[@jahaziel1]

Thanks bro. This is the video i needed

[@Evanrholloway]

Going to give this a shot this weekend. Wish me luck. Thanks for the video! Edit: It worked! Thanks!

[@jonathonchandnoit6741]

Thank you, I was just about to just upgrade my whole system but Ill just try this cause I want to feel like I accomplished something

[@leemccusker8763]

Thanks for this. Just done it and sounds good as new 👍

[@zackknight1331]

I’ve Done this exact fix to my 2014 Gt, and now after about 1 1/2 years of ownership after the fix havent had the problem since! Amazing work.

[@CPTech92]

ahhh... okay. This is the first video I have come across when trying to google cx-5 audio rattle. common mazda issue it seems. I have 3 speakers in the dash area that I am praying is not the issue with, but at the very least, both front side door speakers are doing this. bose system as well. thanks for the vid

[@coccobill7982]

This is most likely to happend with the door speakers, as the problem seems to be water drippen down on the speaker membrane. A design flaw. Glue the rip with epoxy resin or some other good and a bit flexible glue.

[@IvanRosaT]

I can confirm it worked on my 2015 mazda 3, which is very similar procedure Loved it!

[@spiffycopfter]

Thank you! This helped me. My speakers were more than 1/2 separated. I used silicon waterproof sealant to resecure. Rattle is completely gone! You really need to pull hard on the door panel to get the clips off. Definitely worth getting replacement clips or a tool to remove them correctly as I broke a few getting them on and off.

[@djtjpain]

Sean Huban what would the tool be?

[@thatstheguy07]

Did you also use clamps like he did? Or just the sealant worked?

[@MSNsee4d]

Hello. Have the exact same effing problem in right door. Bose sound system.. thank you for the video!

[@bennie278]

This happened with the left door speaker of my Mazda 3 a few years ago. I just watched this video before fixing the speaker on the right door. Thanks.

[@Aj-qw8nf]

Just had my left speaker go on my Mazda 3 they need to recall it

[@Orangejulius8]

Same problem in my 2016 Mazda 6 Touring. I thought it was a blown speaker on my passenger side despite rarely playing music loudly. I've been happy with the car despite this, but it's good to know this is a relatively easy fix. Just disappointing that a car that has always been in a garage and otherwise babied would still have this issue!

[@tejaspatel2624]

2014 Mazda speaker fixed….. thanks heaps brother

[@Justblaze791]

This guys the best

[@lisak1111]

What a disappointment the Bose speakers are! I thought they were supposed to be the best but apparently not. Thank you for showing me how to fix it🙂

[@marcus9137]

Excellent vid 💪🏻 Ty so much 👍🏻🍻

[@Mark-uk7li]

Man thank you so much, i had the same problem 👌

[@19zbyszek]

thanks for the movie help me a lot THANKS PAL :)

You are the man.....thanks a lot!

Great guide, thank you.

[@hugojaaa9331]

Great video brav ..thank you ..you saved me 450 $ thank you

[@lilshag3472]

Our 04 chevy suburban has the bose stereo and we havent had no problems out of it only had the passenger door speaker replaced a few years ago

[@rafelhanna3927]

You are the best you save me a lot money

[@dirkgibbens377]

I have the same problem on my 2016 Mazda 6 Touring. Started when the car was relatively new (and still under warranty). They tried a couple of things that didn't work but obviously never looked at this (or maybe they knew but didn't want to eat the cost of replacing the speaker). I have a service appointment this week for other items. I am going to point to the records that show this was an early issue that was never properly addressed and see if I can get them to come clean and replace it. If not, I will do the repair.

[@Jalapeno_SV]

Thank u for the video save me some money thank u very much

[@christophermaguire9596]

Thanks so much! I'm using an epoxy instead but worked perfectly.

[@dominic6337]

1:17 this shit is funny as hell

[@anastasiacercas606]

Great fuckin video. My dad and I were cracking up and it worked!!

[@HustleHawlik]

Dang man....THANK YOU!!!!

[@muftimasroor1681]

What size are those speakers already installed stock? would a 2012 model have the same size?

[@mikeyjay5396]

Did this hold up? Seen others say to use clear silicon instead as glue dries it out.

[@bazzlejet77]

My driver door had this issue and now my passenger door has it , little tip , the clips that hold the door panel on can break / snap , if you slide some cotton or string around the clip and pull tight , the clips come out without breaking.

[@MatthewJBD]

Thanks for the tip!

[@andrewarnold7345]

I have the same problem and I just moved most of the base to the other speaker. I am going to try this fix though. Thanks.

[@rilou50]

I got the same issue on my rightdoor Bose speaker. So this video is very helpful to repair it. Thanks

[@samcurtis2394]

Omg ! Have this issue with my 2012 mazda 6 GT sounds the same as in your video. Going to try it this weekend.

[@samcurtis2394]

Does anyone know where I would get the clips like that in Melbourne Australia?

[@jaquesherbst5577]

Thanks I have the same car and year model and the same problem at the same side of the car.

[@MikeMiheli]

Same issues with Mazda CX-5. Bose must be garbage.

[@Nichtswert]

God bless you. This was helpful as fuck. Thanks man!

[@matthewtrejo8954]

Drivers side in my dash is making static noises can u make a video on that?

[@cristianvranciuc4460]

What a save. I've got same problem. I'll let you know if problem solved.

[@Glowjka007]

Hi, Thanks for your video. I have the same problem with my Mazda 3 from 2014. How does it work today after about one year? Is the speaker still working properly? Did the glue hold strongly dispite the rust? Thanks for feedback

[@quanbei8902]

Did u fix it? I got a 2014 too Nd my Bose on my left is badd

[@Glowjka007]

@@quanbei8902 Not yet but I m going to glue them this week.

[@quanbei8902]

Glowjka007 imma try n do mines too, u got the GT model? Wit the Bose surround ?

[@MkhuzoMwanza]

Thanks

[@Fahadnuw]

im thinking of buying the mazda 2020 do you think these Bose speakers are good for someone who inst a music connoisseur and just wants to listen to music normally everyday?

[@mattheww9510]

The bose system would be perfectly adequate for most people, anybody that says it's trash are just audio snobs that need their eq set to unrealistic standards for a stock audio system.

[@Th3M4larky]

Mazda 6 still lacks an actual subwoofer, which i think is dumb, so it only uses those woofers in the doors.

[@djtjpain]

that’s why I had to throw my 12s in the back 😎 Mids are a little weak but good, highs are very crisp, overall the system puts out a quality sound with very little distortion

[@KaranSaini1235]

That's God's work right there 😇

[@KasK6517]

I have the same issue with my 2016 Mazda 6, I'm actually disappointed in the sound quality. I had a 2014 Mazda 6 before and the speakers were much better and the bass was deeper.

[@Pinkielover]

never buy mazda

[@momaey24]

So I got a 2014 mazda6 Nd my speaker in both doors are gone Would my fellow members reccomend replacing with Bose or a nice after market?

[@mikewengal6443]

Have the same problem with my Mazda3's Bose system... problem is (in my car at least) the door speakers are actually special 1 ohm woofers so if you replace it with anything else you're going to loose all the bass in your system... and the only one who sells the same size 1 ohm woofer? You guessed it, Bose for $160 each!

[@srxshadow]

all 2016 mazda 6 with bose sound system will do this... eventually. poor design for a "premium" product, thanks for the guide!

[@rigidemt]

Fucking amazing

[@jenniferdelgado8883]

How much to do this for me

[@safdarrizvi9885]

Just bought a 2013 Mazda 6 Navi Sport 2.2D with 101K miles.The front speakers are fooked.Im gonna either repair or upgrade both front door speakers.

[@Funkyflannel96]

This guy cussing is just the best 😂 😂 seriously this shit pisses you off

[@sen5908]

Anything else that goes wrong with the 6?

[@Sivig5280]

Ste P That’s the only issue I’ve experienced

[@gungan5822]

Same damn problem here. I'm going to degrease and sand the lose paint off this sob before gluing.

[@gungan5822]

@Samuel Jesse Jonah Yeah, I used silicone RTV on both sides of the diaphragm after removing the rust.

[@gungan5822]

@Samuel Jesse Jonah Yeah. Surprisingly, all my gun cleaning chems were super useful. Rust/blue remover, degreaser, etc. I even used cold blue on the steel where the paint peeled to keep it from rusting more. Lol.

[@KingShort8]

Why are you using glue? Glue is gonna dry and crack from vibrations...why don't you use silicon?

[@noclarity3600]

"take the fucking door off"

[@armandoespinoza2423]

I wish I would’ve gone to KZbin first before spending $600 bucks 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@Pinkielover]

I just get a new set of speakers,, Aftermarket so much better

[@Pinkielover]

junk it

[@duaneselby6743]

Just buy a better speaker problem solved

[@mikewengal6443]

You can't... the door speakers are special 1 ohm woofers that are ONLY made by Blows...

[@haywoodyoudome]

This fix is only for the speaker itself. There is no fix for the shitty music being played.

[@normanbeaulieu4204]

Yeah it’s called blowing your speakers.

[@jmysl1]

its a moisture problem. see kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpS8pop_q8Zmb8k
