MAZDA 6

[Naoki7]

Its mentioned that the factory oil is full synthetic which is a 10k/6mth interval, so the 1k and 5k services are just preventive checks. Some other car brands don't even need to do the 1k and 5k service.

 

Thanks but they did not mention it
Staff told me engine oil only change when doing 10k servicing
I’m just curious is this normal :)?

Mercedes first servicing 15k or 1year

Jaguar first servicing 25k or 1 year

Scratched my Jan-2019 Soul Red Mazda 6 rear door in the car park

 

Don't think worth claiming insurance.

 

Any workshop recommendations for paint work?

 

TIA.

i guess its your own preference or you can always buy your own engine oil and change it outside, wont cost more than 100bucks max.

According to my SA, some people don't even go for the 1,000 & 5,000km checking.

 

I was curious at first until she told me b'cos the is no oil change. Only checking and car wash. 

 

Hence usually done in about 2 hours.

Problem with soul red is, not a lot of outside work shop can fix it properly.

 

I think u can try JDM Autocare.

 

Search their facebook pages.

 

I think I saw they can repair paint jobs as well for soul red.

 

Cheers...

Great, thanks buddy

My BP stock dashcam able to use parking mode.

(No record unless motion sensor is trigger).

 

The accessories shop connect both ACC and B+ cable together so BP Dashcam cannot switch to parking mode.

 

I bought the Cellink Neo with original BlackVue connector so i need to modified the output cable to 3 wire (ACC; B+ and Ground).

 

Driving Mode

Celink Neo will supply power to both ACC and B+ cable.

BP dashcam will take it as Driving Mode bec ACC is ON.

 

Parking Mode

Celink Neo will supply power to B+ cable.

BP dashcam will know the car is turn OFF so will enable the parking mode.

 

Bro,

If I don't install Cellink Neo, instead connect B+ wire (Red wire) to other direct battery at fuse box (eg. Fuse 18, Audio3 - Audio system) that should work parking mode also.  (Ofcourse, I will buy fuselink tapping wires to connect).

Since BP has low voltage cut off feature, hopefully not get in to trouble with flat battery.

Do you foresee any problem with this setup?

I had scratches on my car previously. Eurokars helped to polish it roughly and applied the paint on it for free. U can try asking the personnel in their body shop.

Frankly speaking, i am not an expert on the electrical or wiring connection.

But i think it should be fine to connect the B+ wire to other direct battery at fuse box. Thank you

Sharing my experience.

 

My Mazda 6 have a rattling noise from rear cabin since 1k servicing.

It happen everyday since Feb 19 and i was unable to find out the source.

 

I have record the "tak tak tak" sound and show the sound clip to TEK.

But i was fail to simulate the rattling noise during the test drive with technician.

TEK advise to stick the sponge on rear camera power cable but it continue happen.

 

The rattling noise is higher with no rear passenger.

So i suspect that there is some thing under rear passenger seats.

 

***Our car is fully imports from Mazda Japan and no one modify the rear passenger seats.***

 

To resolve the doubts, I remove the rear passenger seat (Only the Rear Seat Cushion).

 

There is a Fuel Tank Cap Opener Cable across the rear passenger seat.

(Opener Lever located at LHS and Fuel Tank Cap located at the RHS).

 

But this stupid cable is only secure with 3 cable holder and without any sponge to secure it.

Therefore, it will hit the car body while driving (Even i driving in expressway).

 

I have test drive for few days and the "tak tak tak" is disappearance.

If you have similar issues, the rattling noise might be come from this cable. thank you

Thank bro for the sharing. I have that sound too, but funny thing is the sound is loud when the car under hot sun. The sound is not there in the morning or when the car is cool.

 

One question, is it very difficult to open up the rear seat cushion?

Realised some settings last night, some of you may already know about it.

 

I realised The head up display position settings under the setting menu don't stay in the settings I made, until I reprogram the seat position to my key and the position of the HUD stays after I save the seat position.
