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.
And put full timing chain service -cam chain (chain, guides, tensioner), VVT cam adjuster, vacuum pump, cam follower, high pressure fuel pump rebuild, vvt spring seals(viaco and uro)\ncomplete timing belt kit with water pump and idler pullies, new brakes all around(raybestos pads and rotors) , new spark plugs and coils(Bosch and ngk), valve cover gasket, PCV replacement(new diaphragm and hoses), new cabin filter, new air filter, new fuel filter. and all fluids just done.
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.
OEM is never bad for the brakes, Raybestos and EBC are considered some of the best for Xterras, both give you plenty of different options to go with as well. Personally, Raybestos was easy and shipped within a week
These cars are notorious for eating rear brakes. The pads are just so small. I get Raybestos on Rockauto.
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.
Also ordered Raybestos pads and rotors.
3) Lastly, the brake pads' bodies are the right dimensions to fit the caliper brackets, but why would the friction-material footprint be so much smaller?! I can only think of negatives with using these.
How about my 2021 Mazda 6 Grand Touring Reserve with a measly 14,000 miles and the dealer says the rear brakes are rusted and grooved with photo evidence.
