Argghhhh Trust me, I love this car, but every car has its issues :(
1:44 Yes you can still go well over 500whp, but there's no axles rated for that... But that doesn't stop many people from running over 800whp
I think the major problem with the car is the transfer case. It's questionable to launch the car from a dig in fear of breaking the damn thing.
looking at getting one in the next couple weeks, are the axles an issue at all if I go a little hard while it's stock? or do they only become an issue when you start pushing more power? it's one of the downsides i've heard about with this model
@@zekyu8474 I mean if you launch at every light at 6000rpms, obviously you'll have a problem, but but yeah if you're not doing crazy launches all the time, they'll do you fine
@@LifeOfTuners That's fair and good to know, was a little skeptical about it for that reason but if all is well so long as it wasn't being thrashed every day I'm sure it'll have plenty more years of service.
I love Mazda6 MPS! This car makes you to be obsessed by its looks and engine sound! My schoolmate has one!
I wonder how good the AWD is in the snow or winter times tho compared to a wrx, sti, Evo just cuz I really want an AWD this coming winter
Oh yeah, the Subarus will definitely have the best system with their 'symetrical AWD' setup, they're meant to be very predictable in snow and slippery conditions
@@LifeOfTuners but can the speed compete with it
I'd say so, while the Subarus would be better, I think the speed 6s and Evo's would be on par in snow, but let's see if any owners repsond
I wish I could send pictures of my speed parking in over a foot of snow. I could never get the car stuck and I tried lol
Oh damn, that's pretty crazy!
The car has a permanent awd system... basically in a normal cruising the power to the rear wheel is so low (to have better fuel economy) that feels fwd... but it never EVER goes to full fwd... . There is no joint that can totally undo inside the transfer case. The car has an intelligent system... know when the car is for a more sporty usage, and locks the 50 50 power destribution. Is not better of a system compared to subaru or mitsubishi... is more power efficient, and adds accelleration to the start and more speed going out of a corner flooring it.
So, like a more aggressive on demand AWD system
I think it only goes full fwd, when you're at very low speeds to help with parking and to increase the turning cicle. But that's the only exception.
I had one for 9 years and LOVED IT! But, piston rods and rear diff mounts are made of chocolate and RUST! Rust underneath, rust in the engine bay, rust on the rear wheel arches, rust on the hood, rust rust rust.
Mmmm typical Mazda problems Am I right?
I owned two of them between 2010 and 2016. Absolutely loved how they look and drove. But as you said, the rear diff mounts failed, then a con rod shot through the block! The second car the turbo blew, leading to the clutch and gearbox going kapoot also. Can't believe Im still tempted to get another 😂. No rust issues though.
@@martytdd1606 o man, I know, I miss mine like crazy. Everyone I’ve seem here in the U.K. (and that not many, Mazda only imported 1,000), has rust issues. I think there was a recall for the rusty rear wheel arches.
love the eazy e beat
Some beats just go hard
LMAOOOOO DKM!!!! That clip of the civic hatch at 3:40 the location is The Powerade Centre in Brampton Ontario Canada😂🤣😂🤣😂 I drive by that place almost everyday going home from work, that’s so crazy😂😂😂 I knew it looked familiar
WHAT! NO WAY! That clip is legendary! Literally, it's the iconic cart can civic!
I stumbled across this video, cause I presently own a first gen 6, and love the lighting, seriously thinking about a project 6.
But most social media commenters never do there homework, and/or never bring all the necessary info to the table.
The first gen 6's power train is 17 year old Ford Tech, tuned by Mazda.. 17 years old 🤷🏾♂️ The Car didn't cost much new, and despite Mazda's ability to hold value on the resale market, especially they higher performance versions, that is because of there handling prowess, that makes them beloved by performance drivers.
You HP obsessed nerds should do your homework, instead of burning a Car because it does not fit your high HP needs, not everything is built to take 500+HP.
But you do get plenty of space if your a performance driver not needing a status Car, or not needing to fit your elderly, stiff, large Marge aunty in your 6, but that's on you, should've bought a midsize crossover, or a full size sedan 🤷🏾♂️
Mazda is pretty much all Mazda now, and a small Auto Mnfr, with the exception of any Mnfr partnerships I might not know about, which bothers a lot of people, like with the Supra, but that is quite normal and a growing trend, but I do know of the Toy Mazda partnership.
Son with love social media, and hope.. be men be women, and do some homework before you go burning something or somebody 🤦🏾♂️ I'm driving a fine drivers Car for what I paid for it, it felt great on the twisties of the southeast where I bought it, despite I am not a FWD Guy.
You know I love these cars right?
Nothing.... cue the end credits at the beginning with some badass music while focusing in on me driving into the sunset in my Black Cherry Mica 2006 MS6 GT. The end
Ahaha yeah, that would be a quality video
What is it with the fearmongering around the timing drive?
My 2007 CX-7 GT has a chain to operate the VVT drive...
... and my 2013 Speed 3 as well.
These can be observed by opening the oil refill cap and looking
My 18+ psi (high gear/speed) CX-7 has 120,000 miles, the chain has little wear...
My Speed 3 is still smelling new... I blew the turbo seals racing the first version of the SRT Cherokee, but other than that everything is fine
The CX-7 had real issue with the AC compressor... I am using the third unit so far (crankshaft blows up), and of course the VVT failed the first year under warranty. Rear driving and stop lights destroy the light unit from the inside by heat, using led lights solves the problem... and of course the transmission overheats when driving at high speeds... up to 70+ deg Celsius above ambient, that's 110+ which will degrade fluid and components... installing an extra cooler shaves 15 degrees off, that means 55+ above ambient.
But to be honest not even the weak AC would make me change it for a pathetic VW Q5, I mean Audi (2015 I almost made that mistake... VW: talk about reliability)
Only Honda is more reliable... but the price to be ricer has be paid he he
/edit
Scotty Kilmer made a big fuss about Mazda being unreliable... he even lied about the CX-7 transmissions... being made by a different manufacturer than the one making them, same as Toyota... "his beloved Toyota"
He is full of caca... friends with Camry and 4Runner have severe issue with suspension and chassis, the big SUV can't even align the front beam lights at all, no adjustment... pathetic, but "Toyota is good"… geez
Yeah, the cars with that engine have timing chains that stretch (elongate) over time (the 2010+ Speed 3s don't have this issue)
Usually around 90k miles they tend to go, but I've seen some make it to 140k.
It's quite well publicised, I included it in part 2 of MazdaSpeed common problems. While it isn't that bad, as most cars have a timing belt (which stretch) but a car with a chain, should not stretch, but they do
Just bought 1 bit tricked up a bit then bottom end spun a bearing so don't no rebuild or not and how much does it cost anyone shed any help much appreciated
Sheeeeeet, depends on the country and prices ig, I'd just try to find another used working engine, or consider the 2.5 swap
I just want to keep it stock, would that be a more reliable option?
100%
Do anyone know of the speed 6 is faster Than the speed 3 i men they have the same horsepower but the speed 6 has all wheel drive?
On paper, the speed 3 is faster from 0-100, but in real life, it's VERY hard to drive the speed 3 faster to 100 then the speed 6, since it has AWD.
The speed 3 is faster on track though.
I have a speed 6 but I haven't had any major problems really reliable
That's great to hear! Treat the well, and it'll treat you well
How many miles are on it?
@@cameronhorstmann7581 97,xxx low milage bought it for a good price
Hi, did you know how much Mazdaspeed 6 were made? Thanks!
I don't know for sure, but I believe it was either 5000 or 7500, so not much at all!
you should do a video on the mazdaspeed miata!
I did one a while back as well
Just saw it, quality as always!
Thanks, I appreciate it!
My dad has a 2007 mazda 6 mps he uses it as his daily driver, bought it from new - great car
Exactly, they are a car that you can truly use, every single day and have a bunch of fun while doing so
@@LifeOfTuners yep👍
What is rubish?
Everything I said in this video
The mounts are problematic as is the standard turbo which will need to be replaced after 100000 miles or 160000 kilometres. All in all still much better than the mazda 3MPS except for the bonnet scoop
they are common problems, personally i prefer the light weight, fwd and small 3, for those reasons
Mine had soooo
Many issues within the 5 months I had it. Not a bad car tho just getting too old over $2k of fixes over time
Far out that is rough
How many miles?
2k in 5 months ain’t too crazy
white site has the best body kits?
There all much of a muchness tbh
Great fun stick first car tho still even stock
For real! Really fun
I've heard of people using seafoam to clean their engines would this work for carbon build up?
I don't know too much about it, so I wouldn't want to give the wrong advice
What car is perfect? I think most cars have issues.
i didnt get a speed3 cuz i didnt want the gdi, so id rather have no turbo but also less problems. now my only problem is im slow😂
honestly a pretty smart decision
The speed 6 is a great car- what you will find like with pretty much every turbo'd car, people mess with them, dodgy work, shit tunes, abuse and lack of maintenance, then something goes wrong or they sell it and it goes wrong for the next guy, there are more of them out there with high mileage and making good power than are parked up
that is facts
This is my worth looking at one for 9K with 500hp and 118k on it… I drove a ms6 the 150hp version and I really want this alongside my boosted mustang, just don’t need a project I heard that parts are hard to come by?
Love speeds
They are best!
I bought one as my first car and in a couple months the engine blew and I had to get a new engine
And now the fuel pressure likes to go out on me and the engine shuts off but I just got my fuel injectors cleaned to hopefully that fixes that
Oh crickey! High millage? If that doesn't work, maybe the high pressure fuel pump?
All Performance Cars yeah it had 125,000 on it and we came to find out someone changed the timing chain and that was a little off. And it was also putting out a little over 22 pounds of boost so that wasn’t to good for the engine either
Oh yeah, damn, that's pushing the limits of the stock turbo on a car with that high a milage
All Performance Cars it has a new turbo in it too but I still think it was just to much power
I have a fully built speed 6 and haven't had any problems with it. 🤷🏿♂️. You just need to make the common sense upgrades and GET a professional tune after. Goes for the speed 3 as well
Ayy nice, they certainly are great
@@LifeOfTuners I'm still working on the AWD speed 3. I'll have to send you a video when I get all everything in order!
@@copywopy oh yo, for sure man, it's gonna be insane!
@@copywopy I definitely wanna see that!!!! I have a ms3 myself and want to make it awd
i throw my MS6 more then my big turbo MS3
Broken axels at 500 ok then
Mm rip
If you like sledding..buy a speed3.
Just slippin around
Mazda Speed 6 POS.
My wife's car she drives at or below the posted speed her speed 6 so far.
New Engine
2 Transmissions
2 Turbos
Flywheel (clutch ate it's way into it 3 weeks waiting for a replacement flywheel)
Low Profile Tires 3 sets these basta!ds pop on a speed bump)
Unknown gremlin every once in awhile it just won't start until you tow it to the shop and then it starts.
Hood repainted twice rusting again along the front bead, rusting on rear wheel openings, noticeable rust bubbles here and there.
It's sitting in the garage (Misfiring, Turbo shot again) I'm leaving it in there until the wife loses her passion for the POS6 and I can dump it.
Gosh that does sound like a complete pile
She must drive it like she stole it 🤣
holy shit i beat the piss out of mine and I havent even approached half theses issues
Sounds like you bought a badly maintained car from the previous owner or you guys are terrible at maintenance and don’t know how to take care of turbo cars 😬
Sounds like driver error lol
short: everything
I could go on for much longer saying whats good about it
@@LifeOfTuners suckz like a sucker driving a crackheads car
@@dildoshwaggins1017 omg not this little VW fanboy again, get a real car
@@LifeOfTuners like what? a fucking mazda, even japanese ppl dont want?! Lol Idiot. Bet u never saw an Audi from inside!
Ok their bud, of you hate mazdas so much, then why do you keep watching my videos lol 💀
Go drive round in ya boring vag, see if I care
Your full of crap it's got rear lsd and it's not fwd at any time it's awd period with an open front diff
Hahaha I sense the pain
Its hard to make 😥
*complains about the handling* / *continuously cuts to the one dumped and stanced like a ricer idiot for the example* lul
I like them istg 😭
It was not made for teens! it was made for men! do a couple of pulls! classy style! not ricer boy type!
definitely the adult one of the mazdaspeeds
ROOBISH?
Hell naw
Can't spell 'Rubbish' on the thumbnail
LMAOOO that's my bad oops
Wrong spelled? Rubbish
