MAZDA 6

[GPunto]

My full tank of ~65L can go up to 700 km++, normal driving with aircon on

A curiosity question. Why does Mazda 6 still offers hatch back for this model ? I know the legacy starts from the 626 days But then again..cars of these position seldom have a hatchback model now.

Reputation is everything ( i have friends who only buy Toyota due to reliability n Honda due to VTEC)......... Once he swopped his Accord JDM with my 2.3 n he was like, "wah ur car power siah...... But my VTEC not open yet"

 

 

then again, Mazda paper specs look poor compared to competitors..... there are plenty of fanboys who will just talk about numbers all day long without even trying out the car.... n they prob don't realise that it's the torque n the delivery of the torque that most of us need when driving in SG

 

 

i guess the key point here is my VTEC not open yet

coming from a honda i can feel the power difference too, at low rpms the mazda shoots forwards readily unlike my previous honda... at high rpms my mazda starts to tail off while on my honda the car starts to power up

Vtec kick in yoz !!

Hi guys,

 

Looking to buy the Mazda 6 2007 model. Anything in particular that I should take note of? The average FC would be approximately 8-9 I suppose?

[Mazdarati]

Ron95, 98 or V-power?

 

98

Mazda not many on the market and somehow lower re-sale value but I think its reliable enough, can buy 2nd hand to try the handling, worth it if second hand.....Mz6 nice too.

Guys, anyone replaced their windscreen before? Where did u do it and was it done painlessly? My windscreen got chipped when a stone got thrown up and met my car just under the wipers.. Sad that my insurance does not cover me going back to TE to do it so have to look at other workshops. Thanks for any advice.

60K for fuel filter is too kiasu :) especially our petrol quality grade is quite good.

 

How much are you being charged for it?

 

Buy it from stockist + labour should be <$150/160 there about? (if memory did not fail me)

 

Changing for Mz6 very mah fun.....remove back seat.....whole car smell of fuel ...but do not know if that is the case for the GH series u r driving

where can i find a mazda stockist?

also if i can find the prices?

 

my car suspension has some funny sound, every now and then when steering is fully locked and there is pressure applied to the wheels there will be a tang sound, sometimes it happens a few times but othertimes no sound at all

 

so i'm considering to change the entire suspension set up but afraid it'll be a huge sum
