  1. MTX Transmission Discussion
    Hi, this is my first time posting here, so please don’t attack me if this answer is covered in an old thread somewhere. I have a 2014 Mazda 6 itouring and I’m not able to shift in to reverse or 1st gear. Thankfully after some gentle persistence I finally got it into reverse and drove it a...
  2. Mazda 6 3rd Generation (2013-Present)
    I'm new to the forum and hoping someone can help me get this issue diagnosed. My 2017 Mazda 6 w/ 6 speed manual starting and making horrific noises. The car has been parked since April.

  4. MTX Transmission Discussion
    Hi there, I’m new, hoping someone can help as it’s hard to get specific info on my 2009 Mazda 6. I’m changing the clutch, I got the transaxle out and replaced the parts, and got the transaxle back up against the engine. It stops about 1/2” from getting tight against the back of the engine...
  5. MTX Transmission Discussion
    Hello, I have found my self stuck, I’ve recently found a leak near my transmission and turns out from some googling I’ve found that my shift shaft seal is leaking pretty badly but when I look up any videos I can’t find anything. I’ve got to the point where the shift shaft is almost out but it’s...

    My car: 2006 Mazda 6i 2.3 L Engine (non-turbo) 5 Speed Manual Transmission At some point in time my backup lights were constantly on. As long as the key was turned, they were on. So I replaced the reverse light switch, which fixed the issue, but created another one. When the end of the switch...
  7. 2.5L Turbo I-4
    I have a 2015 Mazda 6 with the manual trans. I just hit 200K and the thermostat stuck and overheated. In turn it blew the head gasket. Don't know the extent of the damage yet. Just towed it to the shop today. It already has a newer trans in it. About 80K by now. I was considering the...
  8. Engine / Drivetrain
    My 3.0 v6 has developed what I believe to be rod knock, and I dont have much hope for it. However, I have a good 3.5L v6 out of a Taurus X laying around doing nothing. They look similar from the top, but I dont know for sure. Has anyone heard of this swap? I have the MTX, so at least the...

    So, I’ve already made the trip to travel two hours just to check out a black manual 6 speed 2006 mazdaspeed 6, and in my opinion it went horribly. Here is what’s wrong with it: -can’t start without a jump, ( if you stall, you have to jump it again) -cold air intake is facing the road, causing...
  10. 1st-Gen
    Hey everyone. I've been looking at the facelifted Mazda 6 V6 with a manual lately as my first car. I wanted to know how much mileage I can expect out of it with good maintenance but mild driving conditions (short trips, hills, and some traffic). I have heard some stories regarding the pre-cats...
  11. Mazda 6 3rd Generation (2013-Present)
    I'm looking to buy a Mazda 6 and it seems that around here (Eastern Europe) most of the cars come with the 2.0 engine (or are diesel but I prefer gasoline). I've driven a 3 with the 2.0 and I found it to be powerful enough for me. I know that the 2.5 has higher torque at low revs but I had no...
