List of things I hate about my Mazda 6.
I like the car but…
Reverse Camera
Rear Seats
Door locking repeated
Doors don’t lock
Windscreen wiper speed
Start-Stop
Radar
Cost of a service
Start-up speed of infotainment screen
Sporadic electronics gremlins: HUD display not raising all the way, infotainment ghost touch, GPS updating extremely slowly.

Just a quick tip, if you i - ELOOP function isn’t working when you stop at traffic lights check if the “engine” symbol isn’t glowing blue like the “AC” and “battery” symbol on the display. If it isn’t blue then the car is undergoing an active regen to clean out the DPF filter, don’t turn the engine off during the cycle as repeated in/off introduces diesel into the oil to “fast track” the dpf cycle. I find it best to do 5 minutes on motorway or B road and keeping revs around 2500 will quickly complete the regen process. Hope this helps.

I have a 2015 Mazda3 2.2 diesel and on a cold start it revs to 1800 rpm for about 20=25 seconds before settling down to a normal tick over.
Is this normal for this engine? I have has multiple diesel cars and none of them high idled from a cold start, so i'm a little concerned about this.

I have most of these problems but here are some extra ones:
- Car (warning/full) breaks kicking in for no reason, this happened to me multiple times and almost got me into an accident
- You can't increase the speed alarm/High speed alert (it's a feature in other cars)
- You can't lock the car while it's on and it keeps making a beeping noise if you leave the car with the keys
- The street speed sign is usually wrong

I’m a Mazda tech. The camera needs to be replaced. A lot off the other problems will be updates

5:20 the locker. If you get away from the door before you shut the door, it won’t work. I hate it because I work with delivery twice a week for 8 hours, and sometimes it won’t lock.

My 2013 Mazda 6 diesel skyactive went to the scrapyard with an engine failure. This with a full service history from a main dealer.

I have the same problem with the proximity unlock on my mazda 3, it usually only fails when I've got my hands full already...I think it knows!

I have had my 2016 Mazda 6 for almost a year, and I relate to 90% of these annoyances. Another annoyance is that when it's cold, I want to start my car and go back inside. The thing that is super frustrating, is that if the car is on, you can't lock it unless you drive it. It won't lock if you have the keys with you and you try to lock it if it's on. So you are forced to leave your car unlocked if it's on and you walk away. BIGGEST frustration during the winter.

Many of your key and locking issues could well be due to a flat battery in the key fob. Either that or you need the key reset as they can go out of sync with the car so the codes don't match.

Do your doors automatically lock when you set off? Mine don't and I can't see the option in the settings

[netonentchev]

Any mechanical problems with the engine?? Headgasket leak etc? I'm looking for a used mazda 6 most important is engine reliability

I bought a
Mazda 6 last year. What will happen when it's discounted? Will I be able to find repair parts? Do you think I should change for another car? I was planning to keep for at least 10 years. What do you advise?

[composimmonite]

Forward camera continually fogging in cold weather. Heater on full blast screen heat fails to clear the warning.

For my Mazda 6, the auto-lock feature is hyper-aggressive. If I get out of the car and want to walk around to the other side (like to open the passenger door or the back door) it will lock itself again. Basically, the moment the driver door shuts, it locks. So I'm having to use the key fob if I want to open any other door. How about giving me some time to at least react? You can still lock automatically, but maybe give us a second or 2 to still be able to open the other doors?

[joshuaguttman]

Sounds like you need to replace the batteries in your key fobs. That will fix the walk away locks and the keyless entry.

[nene]

Yes me too! I have a mazda 2020 and have already experienced several of these issues! Whereas I had a 2000 Acura that outlived me. Lololol, and in comparison, my Acura never gave me problems in the early years in fact not until late in its lifetime.

With the walk away locking feature, you have to be standing next to the car when you close the door. I've noticed when I'm too far away from the car by the time the door closes, it doesn't work.
