Hello Mazda-Gemeinde My friend would like to buy a MX-5. Her budget will meet vehicles of the vintages 00 to approx. 02 (depending on kilometers and equipment). At the dealer we have seen a newer (’04) with fabric cover. At car4you.ch and autoscout24.ch the talk of a “PVC cover” is with most. My questions: – When was changed to the fabric cover? – Are there qualitative differences, where are pros and cons? – Was something else changed in the course of the model care? For a few answers I would like to thank you.

Hello people.So I’m driving Mazda xedos6,a nice car,but what bothers me is the workshoping of mazda,and slowly I’m going up,unsavory bills and no anung.So this is about the following I brought my car to inspection on 31.03.2005 I’ve had an appointment and today it’s already 7.04.2005 after questioning when will car be finished they’ll have said they’ll get the next day,then the week,so and today the said blessed when next week,is not bad.I’ve even called Mazda deutchland and I can’t help them in.And I’m supposed to pay 1700 for this crap.My opinion is never going to have anything to turn around with mazda as a car and as a company.For me, mazda is done,and I’m going to leave everyone guessing finger off.

So after I no longer want to have my 88er 626 GD brought through the TÜV for 1,000,- Euro with my Mazda dealer, I looked for another Mazda with him: Xedos 6 2.0l V6 Bj 93 160.000 km 3.600,- 626 2.0l Bj 95 70,000 km 3.000,- The 626 is with my insurance in the quarterly payment still good 20,- Euro more expensive for this the Xedos should swallow more (12l) and then even Super. As Azubi I have to pay attention to the money and now I am pondering which of the two I take. The Xedos is cheaper in the insurance and has a greater chance for longevity with the 6 cylinder, but has already a lot behind it. The 626 would be cheaper with the financing and in the fuel and has less km on the hump, which with the 4 cylinder however is already a lot. Can someone give me some good and more objective advice?

Hello people ! I would like to get a roadster as second car in the near future. This should be in a frame of max. 4000 EUR. Since I know only the MX5 or the Barchetta in question. I would be interested in which vehicle you have a little more space. With my height of 1.90m (slim) this is an extremely important and decisive factor. I would also be grateful about other pros and contras, but please no opinions on the design. This is always a matter of taste. I hope that you can participate and help me !

Hello with my 626GE 2,5V6 (1992) 2 spark plugs were under oil. But does not cause any problems otherwise. The workshop thinks the cylinder head seal is down, costs from 1900Euro upwards and must be changed immediately. However, I did not see any water in the oil or vice versa., also no blue haze in the exhaust gas. Oil consumption since the last oil change 9000tkm from the max stroke on the oil measuring rod to about a third to the min stroke. So probably wearyer than half a liter. But when the spark plugs were checked, I noticed that the spark plugs were installed very loosely in the workshop at the last change. So my question: can it be the one not sufficiently attracted spark plug lead to the oil rises and collects itself? Did the spark plugs now all follow up and observe whether new oil occurs. Is the workshop right or does they just want to do a business?
