I am in the market for a Mazda CX-5 Sport on a 2017, it was such a pleasure to hear you speak in terms of how committed you are to the service of the vehicle. I was thinking i could drive from Wales to where you are should i purchase this vehicle for a timing chain replacement and service.
Hi Spencer, apologies for the delayed response. If you do or have bought one, the only chain that fails is the oil pump timing chain. Simply due to its small size. Get the intake manifold cleaned and injector washers around 100k km or 60k miles. Exhaust camshaft at 150k kms or 90k miles, then that’s it. A good car thereafter. Happy new year mate 🙏🙏

Good evening Sir, I am watching all your videos with the 2.2 engine from Mazda. I saw that you use a distribution kit from FAI. Is this FAI putty ok? Thank you in advance for your answer and BRAVO for the professionalism with which you make these videos!

@@kennedysgarage3281Hello and thank you very much for the answer. If I send you the money, can you buy me an FAI kit? IN Romania, the quality is poor and I do not trust the parts brought by the distributor, they may be counterfeit
@@florinazoitei913 unfortunately I’m too busy to become a parts supplier but google Scanlon motor factors in Waterford Ireland & they might be able to help 😉
Hey Peter, my 2014 Mazda 6 2.2d died few days back. Had issues with the DPF warnings so got the DPF taken out few months back. Few days ago I was driving along and as soon as I went over 2500revs the car started to shudder, I pressed the clutch and reved it up and it flashed up a load of lights and died in the middle of the road. Would not start, engined turned over with heavy shudder and no lights on the dash. I reakon it could be the timing chain! Have you heard of this before... Thanks David in Galway
Hi David, these are very common events to happen. The engine is in need of tlc and then blocks the Dpf. Unfortunately people the fix or remove the Dpf but never look at what problems caused it to block in the first place. It sounds like you could have a heavily blocked intake manifold. Only oil pump timing chains fail which cause oil pressure faults. I’ll copy and paste part 1 of 3 videos on a similar issue I had. Or just skip to parts 2 for the intake manifold clean
Thanks for the reply Peter.... Removed the intake manifold 2 days ago after reviewing your other videos (they were a great help). Yes the intake manifold was caked in carbon build-up but not completely blocked. Plan on cleaning out the lot and reassembling. Checked the injectors and getting plenty of diesel. Hopefully the blockage is the issue. Thanks again David
Quick update Peter, cleaned out the manifold and ports and gave a quick scrub to the egr valve but no change car still won't start.. Bit more background as I said I got dpf done 2 months the egr valve was also mapped out... It was working OK slight shudder from the engine when in a higher gear with low revs.. Went to Centre Parcs last week for 3 days 🙄 using missus car so it was left there, when I got home it was a bit harder to start, it was pretty low in diesel so filled it up in the town over, on the way back the issued started shudder when revving for 2500revs etc.... 160000 miles on her.... Been a great car up until the last 6 months 😞
@Kennedy’s garage I'm sure there are plenty of faults on mazda cars for you to keep us entertained for a few weeks. Plus think how many people in the UK have these cars and search youtube when they can't fix them.
Hi, I’m not too knowledgeable on quality of items I use but if I know the supplier and I am familiar with the brand then I generally use them with mostly no issues. Knowing my supplier means they will normally offer warranty on parts & labour if and items fail 😉👍👍
Would you be so kind to give us a price for this job?... I know some mechanics are reluctant to this but it would really be helpful for those of us who own this money pit we call Mazda 6 2.2Diesel. Thank you for all your videos, they're helpful.
The timing chain replacement is around €1500 but it is advisable to replace the oil strainer when you have the sump/ oil pan removed, this could cost around €200 extra. Hopefully this helps 🙏🙏👍
Hey Peter . Would you be able to talk to the Diagnostic reading of the Camshaft Differential and if there is a reading that indicates the chain stretch. Have 3 MAzda CX5's with readings of 0.9 , 2.4 & 4.6. I am worried that the last car reading the 4.6 needs a new Chain. Are you familiar with this Reading ? Do you know if there is a Recomended Differential number that indicates a need to replace the Chain. Could it be a useful reading to get ?
I am not familiar with this Andrew so do not not what is within parameters. But I am doing an exhaust camshaft on one tomorrow and most certainly take a look 👀 👍👍
Mazda 6 diesel engines have issues major ones according to diesel mechanics the turbos fail cam lobes wear prematurely, pick up sump pump screens block up, the subject of much discussion. The waste gates are also problems in them.
@@Alladin-n5j if injector washers leak this causes carbon buildup in the engine, this carbon then blocks the oil strainer. Blocked oil strainer causes lower oil pressure and makes turbos and big end bearings to fail. So change the injector washers and problem solved 🙂🙂
Those Mazda's with the diesel engines are soo cheap at the mo. And they are a great drive. I'm tempted knowing Peter is there..to fix it if it explodes.

Would not start, engined turned over with heavy shudder and no lights on the dash. I reakon it could be the timing chain! Have you heard of this before... Thanks David in Galway
Hi David, these are very common events to happen. The engine is in need of tlc and then blocks the Dpf. Unfortunately people the fix or remove the Dpf but never look at what problems caused it to block in the first place.
It sounds like you could have a heavily blocked intake manifold. Only oil pump timing chains fail which cause oil pressure faults. I’ll copy and paste part 1 of 3 videos on a similar issue I had. Or just skip to parts 2 for the intake manifold clean
This should help.

Thanks for the reply Peter.... Removed the intake manifold 2 days ago after reviewing your other videos (they were a great help). Yes the intake manifold was caked in carbon build-up but not completely blocked. Plan on cleaning out the lot and reassembling. Checked the injectors and getting plenty of diesel. Hopefully the blockage is the issue. Thanks again David

Quick update Peter, cleaned out the manifold and ports and gave a quick scrub to the egr valve but no change car still won't start.. Bit more background as I said I got dpf done 2 months the egr valve was also mapped out... It was working OK slight shudder from the engine when in a higher gear with low revs.. Went to Centre Parcs last week for 3 days 🙄 using missus car so it was left there, when I got home it was a bit harder to start, it was pretty low in diesel so filled it up in the town over, on the way back the issued started shudder when revving for 2500revs etc.... 160000 miles on her.... Been a great car up until the last 6 months 😞
Mazda king. ..just another day at the office 🙃
I’m inundated with Mazda’s from all over Ireland at this point Chris, I’m having a job getting other interesting repairs at this point 🤷🏼♂️👍👍👍
@Kennedy’s garage I'm sure there are plenty of faults on mazda cars for you to keep us entertained for a few weeks. Plus think how many people in the UK have these cars and search youtube when they can't fix them.
@@the_retired_mechanic they do get quite a lot more views 😬😬😬
Hi mate are fai engine timing chains any good would you say same as mazda chains
Hi, I’m not too knowledgeable on quality of items I use but if I know the supplier and I am familiar with the brand then I generally use them with mostly no issues.
Knowing my supplier means they will normally offer warranty on parts & labour if and items fail 😉👍👍
@@kennedysgarage3281 ok thansk mate
Would you be so kind to give us a price for this job?... I know some mechanics are reluctant to this but it would really be helpful for those of us who own this money pit we call Mazda 6 2.2Diesel. Thank you for all your videos, they're helpful.
The timing chain replacement is around €1500 but it is advisable to replace the oil strainer when you have the sump/ oil pan removed, this could cost around €200 extra. Hopefully this helps 🙏🙏👍
Hey Peter . Would you be able to talk to the Diagnostic reading of the Camshaft Differential and if there is a reading that indicates the chain stretch. Have 3 MAzda CX5's with readings of 0.9 , 2.4 & 4.6. I am worried that the last car reading the 4.6 needs a new Chain. Are you familiar with this Reading ? Do you know if there is a Recomended Differential number that indicates a need to replace the Chain. Could it be a useful reading to get ?
I am not familiar with this Andrew so do not not what is within parameters. But I am doing an exhaust camshaft on one tomorrow and most certainly take a look 👀 👍👍
Jobs a goodun 👍
It all worked out perfectly John, it’s nice when they go to plan 😬👍👍👍
Great information but tells me too avoid skyactive lol,just doing the same job on r2aa.
Keep up the great content 👌
They can be troublesome enough alright. But when they are repaired right they can be some car 🚗
I’m glad you enjoy some of my content 😉🙏🙏
Mazda 6 diesel engines have issues major ones according to diesel mechanics the turbos fail cam lobes wear prematurely, pick up sump pump screens block up, the subject of much discussion. The waste gates are also problems in them.
@@Alladin-n5j if injector washers leak this causes carbon buildup in the engine, this carbon then blocks the oil strainer. Blocked oil strainer causes lower oil pressure and makes turbos and big end bearings to fail.
So change the injector washers and problem solved 🙂🙂
Those Mazda's with the diesel engines are soo cheap at the mo. And they are a great drive. I'm tempted knowing Peter is there..to fix it if it explodes.
Go for it Bastogne. They are a great machine 💪💪
Peter did you ever drop chewing gum into the engine?
No. But if ever I did hopefully it would just get chewed up & spat out 😂😂😂
My advice. Never change one in a bad mood or hungover. You will be doing it twice.
At my age doing anything with a hangover is a task, even getting up 😂😂
@@kennedysgarage3281 If I had known your based in Waterford I would have dropped in during the holidays. We were visiting family in West Cork.
@@lrdisco2005 drop in anytime, the only bad thing is my brother owns a pub & closing time never comes for family 😬😬👍
