Hi,

For a long time I've been looking to buy a Mazda 6 and finally found one for my budget. But I wonder if I would have problems as this car has 209,000 kilometers on it? After having problems with my diesel car (Volvo S40) due to driving mostly in city and short distances I promised myself never buy a diesel car again but now I commute work 20 kilometers one way everyday (mostly highway) so I'm hoping to be safe with Mazda? Would like to hear your opinions.

 

Have a search on this forum for Diesels. I would personally stay away from the diesel CX-5.

 

Thank you, will do that. I guess they are using the same engine for both 6 and CX-5.

 

Same engine from 2012 till 2018, Mazda 3, Mazda 6 & CX-5.

 

Oh, so Mazda 3 is not really safe as well.

 

I haven't seen a Mazda 3 with the 2.2 diesel having engine issues, however, not very many were sold in my market.

Other markets had different capacity diesel engines available. I have no idea where in the world you are.
