Mazda 6 mps 2006

3 star review

Same problems as below. We got a Mazda 6 mps 2006 model bought with 44k on the clock, only got 49k now. Have had the car 2 years, wife only uses to go to the tram station (lazy I know), however 2 months ago the clutch and the dual mass flywheel needed replacing, the bill was £2k with a discount the bill came to £1,700. Lovely car to drive however the gearbox is crap!! Wish we had never bought the mazda 6 mps, going to sell it as soon as possible!!

Mazda 6 mps 2006

5 star review

Taken the plunge and bought the mps, great car! Got a decent deal from Mazda Poole. P/x our trusty old Mazda 6 1.8. plus another £1,000 off! Total to pay was £7,500. Oh and we got an extra years warranty, so peace of mind for the next 2 years, how many of you agree on a 1 year warranty or less? Anyway car has done 31000k full history and goes like stink. (can’t wait to wind up all those beamer drivers.) Will submit another post next year. Yes, I’m still grinning!!!

Mazda 6 Auto 2006

4 star review

Bought the car used in May it has 90k on the clock and was a company car with a full service history. It drives very well and is in good condition inside and out the automatic box is very good and also like the engine . All in all cannot find any faults with the car and it compares favourably with similar cars. I would buy another Mazda without doubt.

Mazda 6 MPS 2006

1 star review

Since I bought my 6MPS it has been provided to me as a new car with clutch issues creating the gear shift from 1st, 2nd gear as notchy and the car slips out of 2nd gear intermittently. Performed all scheduled services as per manufacturer warranty and each time I take the car back to the dealership advising the same gear issues, they give me different reasons, charge enormous service fees and tell me all is OK. Car has done 60 000km’s now and just took back to get service done by dealer, again same gear problems, however now the manufacturer warranty is out and only dealer extended warranty available with minimal cost coverage for up to 175,000km’s only or 5 years and I am quoted I need a new gearbox and parts which will cost me $18500.00 AUS to replace the gearbox. My advise do not buy a Mazda vehicle as the dealership are only making money out of the owner with false advise and when you raise your concerns to fix the bloody thing they hit you with a new gearbox which is not covered by warranty. Mazda does not return calls and don’t care about the consumers.

Mazda 6 2006

4 star review

Clutch and Fly wheel problems seem to keep cropping up with diesel 2L - my mazda6 is ay 75k and clutch apparently will fail; I experienced same problem on 2L TDi Freelander at 55k miles, cost £800 for a clutch + dual mass flywheel, 2LTDi Mondeo’s - have same problem; There is definitely a common problem - design fault? Poor installation? Never had this problem and expense for a clutch with older cars. What’s the point in doing 50 mpg when eco savings go up in smoke on cost prohibitive modern mechanical failings??

Mazda 6 2006

2 star review

The car, although reliable has one of the worst gearboxes I have ever experienced, with 40k on the clock it feels like a 1960 car with 100k (it is the 6 speed manual). The dealer tells me it is normal and the gear change is always like that as Mazda have "crushed an extra gear in a 5 speed box". Well, if this is true, they should be ashamed of themselves. The gear change is notchy, clunky in 1st, 2nd and 3rd and I have given up trying to go into 1st unless I am stationary.
