Just replaced acc drive belt, plugs and brake pads. One of the easiest cars to fix I've ever worked on. Overall, best car I've ever had.
I bought front and rear brake pads/ rotors (rock auto, centric brand, akebono brakes) for $300. It took me total about 3 hours since I had to bleed the brakes, change pads, rotors, and remove off jack stands.
Mazda 6 Wagon Turbo Diesel.
I'm driving it into the ground ???? but loving every km I drive.
Brakes are the next job, I'm considering an upgrade to slotted rotors and better pads.
'23 Turbo Meridian with only routine maintenance needed at just under 34K miles. Will likely need brakes at next oil change, but no issues or repairs needed to this point.
I’ve two cars, a V6 sedan and a Mazda exactly like this. I depended mostly on my Mazda, which I’ve had for 3 years with an automatic transmission. I absolutely love it- it has never let me down. It always starts and goes, and I’ve even left it idling for hours many days with no issues. Apart from brake pads and regular oil changes, I haven’t had to do anything to it.
I’ve got a 2020 Turbo with 83,000 miles. Great car. Very reliable. Did do full brakes at 74,000 miles. Lots of power, love the car.
2024 prem plus with 50k miles and no major issues. At 6k miles the battery was defective and then at 11k miles and then again at 36k miles my front brakes were shot.
235 km/h on the german autobahn, from one border to the other, no issue! Except for the numerous heavy breaking... Going from over 200 to less than 100 several times in a row and you start loosing confidence in the brakes.
Jeg kører også Mazda, deres bremser holder ikke super længe. Da jeg skulle have skiftet skiver og klodser foran gav de et tilbud på 14.000 og forklarede den høje pris med at de jo bruger originale dele. Rimelig skørt når de originale dele ikke holder.
Similar thing happened to me today, vehicle is 2023 cx-50, 25k mile, not even 2 year, in upstate ny with weekly car wash, gentle on gas and brake. They said front pads are 30%, rear pads are 50%, quoted me $600 to get new front pad & rotor, and rear brake service(cleaning, lubrication). Just 2 month ago from another mechanic's report (same delear), all pads are above 50%. I don't think it's that bad that both pad and rotor need to be replaced, so I denied the work,
