I know it's a mazda 6 I'm sure someone on here can give me some help here. I'm looking 2 buy a mazda 6 with some "issues" :chuckle

Owner of the Mazda 6 says it's burning oil. atx... Says oil is getting into the spark plug chamber. In 2 week it burned 3L of oil this is what he is saying to me..

I'm thinking it's the valve cover gaskets? or the piston rings are fried? Car doesn't run @ this point.

All I can say is it sounds like a "do not buy" if there ever was one.

mazda6 v6 = ford engine
in fact, the whole car was built by ford... all sorts of little problems that are annoying

any maintenance work on that V6 engine is a nightmare!

Intresting input here. No one even asked what the price was 1500 220k on the motor. If I could find a replacement motor I'd get it.
