I have a 2009 Mazda 6. It was the first model in the new body style and i will tell you that i've never been happier with a vehicle. I have put 70K miles on it in two years and all i've had to replace is the tires and a headlight. Could not recommend better for anyone than for you to get your own Mazda 6.

I'm currently driving an 09 Mazda 6, i've only had a couple little issues. Wheel bearing, something about spiders in the air vents, gross! But what i'm really curious about is Timing Chain. I know the Mazda 6 from that year was redesigned. What my Question is, does anyone know when i should have it replaced, i'm barely three years old with this thing and already my Mazda 6 is pushing 80k for miles. Would love not to have to replace an engine. Any knowledge would be appreciated.

Look in your owners manual. You don't typically replace a timing chain. You do however replace a timing belt after say 105K miles on some cars.

Default Looking at buying a Mazda6 myself, any issues that I need to be on the look out for?

Im looking at a 2005 mazda6, the check engine light was on when I test drove it, the lot said they just got it in and it hasnt been looked over yet.
They are going to have it checked today and have it fixed.
Are there any concerns that I need to know about with this car?
It's super clean and I really loved the way it drove.
Just concerned about the engine light.
They said it might be the 02 sensor, just having anxiety about buying a used car. Thanks
