Mazda6 (GH) - Check For These Issues Before Buying

[@johngoard8272]

Well mate my 2011 Mazda 6 Sports Hatchback (2.5 litre gasoline) bought from new has only had to have the power steering unit replaced due to pot hole damage because the roads here in Australia are in many cases disgraceful. I have to say that I have had the car serviced regularly and sometimes even before a service is due. I find this car just about the best car I have ever owned and I have had many cars over 50 years of driving. It has a great body and mechanical build quality still has enough power for me and returns great fuel consumption figures averaging around 38-40 mpg after 165,000 kms travel plus I do like the not overly complicated setup of the controls which in some cars of today (2024) that are in my mind so complicated, convoluted, and frankly distracting for any driver while driving those vehicles.

are they loud on the highway at cruising speed ? how has your experience been with the car in long distance driving? does it get too noisy inside ?

[@Thabzalzk]

2009 Mazda6: 221,000 Miles or 336,000 KM and I spent less than $1100.00 USD in repairs, including replacing the front strut once and the rear shock twice. Engine warning light came on twice, replaced upper o2 sensor and cleaned EGR valve. Replace CV axle passenger side. 2.5 i 4 cylinder with automatic transmission. I did all the repair and service by myself. I bought a CD service manual on EBAY.

My 2008 2.5L Mazda6 hatchback only needed a set of new shocks, an airco condensor and a set of front lower suspension arms after about 250.000kms. now at nearly 290.000km I consider it extremely reliable.

Hey, I got same one and is all good. But I recently open radiator cap when it was cold and noticed the fluid isn’t at the very top. It sits much lower. Maybe cup or two needed to fill to the brim. Wondering if that is normal?

Здравствуйте, подойдёт ли передний бампер мазды 6 gh 2010 рестайлинг. На мазду 6gh 2007 года дорестайлинг?

Shutter valve sticking at 140,000 miles. Part is only around $50. Dealer might want to replace the intake manifold also.

This is a perfect family car. Wish they made another one. 5 door. Has to have liftable tailgate.

[@johnbrown417]

Why are you using kilometers instead of mile

[@AmarothEng]

Because majority of the civilized world has no need to measure things in amount of hamburgers.

[@newtonmutea]

Because america alone is stuck in nonsense
