2004 engine

[Spectuning]

Is the engine a 2.3 or 2ltr ? I'd it the same as a mazda6 ?

What's the reason why they keep blowing up ?

You probably drive it too hard.

You need to provide more details before we can answer your questions.

Same engine as a Mazda 6? No.

Do you drive a hatch or a sedan?

Try to give as much details as possible about your 3.... also check under the hood, it should say

2.0 and 2.3L engines are both reliable, there are a few that I've seen blown up but in most cases its due to low oil. The engine in the Mazda 6 is a little different so not it's not a direct fit.
