My 2015 mazda 6 has 190k miles on the clock. Engine timing is still perfect like a clock, and it drives like new still. Even a little faster if I'm honest, I feel the engine break in helped probably. It's a Very solid vehicle.
Most probably the best review that I ever saw about Mazda 6. Is is such an amazing car that many people are simply not aware of. It is not the best car, but is definitely the best buy for your money...
Great review. Owner of 2014 Mazda6 diesel manual, 142,000 miles on it now. I had it for 2 years, had one major issue with oil sieve in the pump stuck with carbon build up caused by injector seals giving up, so watch out for than in diesel mazdas, common issue that only cost about 100 bucks to check and change before the oil sum and pump teardown. Ive got it fixed, both sieve and injector seals and all I can say is car still drives great and very strong!
My Mazda 6 2018, engine light turned on a couple of weeks ago, code P0087, and she's got less than 60.000 km. Now she's in service, we're waiting for it to be diagnosed. It's the SkyactiveG engine, 2 litres gasoline, 165 HP. I had higher hopes from a Mazda low mileage gasoline engine. How do I find out if I have the MkIII or MkIV?
Over the years I have driven car from Volkswagen, Audi, SAAB, Honda, Alfa Romeo, Ford and Mercedes. Mazda 6 Sport Diesel Estate is the best car I have ever driven.
Hello I’m considering buying a 2014 Mazda 6 2.2L diesel. I’ve heard the engines might not be the most reliable and it’s kind of putting me of buying one. Anyone have any advice on them ?
The Problem that the diesel had was fully solved for all the models from September 2015. So try to buy a late 2015 model or younger and sleep godd at night. However, the best of the best at Mazda 6 is 2.5 Petrol engine. Plenty hp for fast cruisinf on highwat, very quet and refined when drivven normaly, extremely reliable and robust because doesn't have turbo and it doesn't consumpts too much fuel either. But the 2.5 Petrol is the most expensive even when buying used.
Main issue on earlier models is the factory copper injector seals leaking, mixing diesel with oil and clogging up the oil strainer. Left unattended, this can lead to oil starvation and engine failure. These had to be changed on my 2016 model. 18 months later it's still going strong. Best advice is to keep an eye on oil levels. Rising oil levels mean oil dilution..a bit is ok.. more is not. Change the oil and filter at 6k km increments or every 6 months whichever comes sooner, don't wait until the manufacturer recommended intervals. There are some reports of failed head gaskets also at as little as 80k miles. Some folks have reportedly addressed this with gasket sealer. Apparently these issues don't afflict the 2018+ models
Diesel model is very economical , totally a different ride if low profile tyres are replaced with 17 " & some decent sidewall . Lots of info about the 2.2 D failing , mazda has fixed 2 of ours after warranty expiry . Currently 5.9 litres / 100 km .
Im considering 2.2 D outback Mazda 6 from 2014 - so would you say its just super reliable as that is what Im looking for - also shall I go for automat or manual? Thanks anyone with experience having this as looking at vehicle around 180k kms for like 5k Eur - car for work.. thanks
Thinking about getting 2016 Mazda 6 D2.2 D SPORT NAV 4d 148 BHP. The only concern I have is Nearside Front Brake pipe corroded, covered in grease or other material (1.1.11 (c)) Offside Front Brake pipe corroded, covered in grease or other material

This car in cherry red is as striking to look at like a red Alfa Romeo sports car IMO. It does look sexy with that well sculpted body lines that an ugly BMW with massive lung grills will look really hideous when parked beside this car

I own a 2016 Mazda6 high output diesel auto. In its seventh year and more than 150,000km on the clock, still going very strong.

Did you get one? If so what do you think? I am in the same state as you are in this comment - finishing up my research.

Just great design and so well put together with great driving dynamics...
My Mazda 2011 got me 390000 miles and still starts up but tranmission failed although it still drives

Is the 2l petrol any good? @@Toretto16
Take a test drive you'll not be disappointed!! But make sure its petrol!!

Why, oh why is there no five door version? 2007-2012 Mazda 6 hatchback was awesome! Now I have to look at Insignia.
I must be the unluckiest Mazda 6 owner. Mine died at under 50k miles and I've only ever had dealership services.
diesel or gasoline?

Kia Optima was in South Africa & Stinger but not the full model range of Stinger Hyundai I40 Estate wasnt but the rest bof I range is .
wanted a used car analysis
Clearly a mis-titled video. This looks liked they reposted a review from 2013 when this was new. I was also looking for a used car review.
8:24 the rear what? 😂😂
mine is terribly loud at highway speed, 2014 2.0 107kw, petrol. anyone else too?
The 2 litre petrol would be working . Getting rid of those harsh low profile tyres & wheels is an enormous improvement .
What is the ‘Mondeo segment’?
Apparently Europeans use the Ford Mondeo (Fusion) as a representative of the mid-size sedan segment.
