that spuddering thing i had that happen to me before. When i came back from deployment i was excited to get in my car for the first time in over a year. Once i was driving back up to base i started to notice that when it was in 5th gear it was starting to spudder and give me feedback from the pedals, then when i was sitting stationary it would just u could see the rpm going close to 2000. I took it too a mechanic and they switched out the coils and said it would be fine. then a month or so later it did it again took it back to them they have no idea, reset my computer and tell me to come back if it keeps doing it. I was unsatisified about it but i left. Once it started doing it again and the check engine like came back on i went back there they charged me a 80 diag. fee and replaced my gas cap. So bascially they charged my 250 to fix something that wasnt wrong with the car and another 100 bucks for a $20 gas cap. I let this piece of crap hawaiin get an earful even made two people walk out. took my car to checkers talked to one of those guys and it turned out it was the spark plug. It was burnt to toast why beacuse i was running 89 gas through it. when i went back to 87 everything was ok. but im sure if i kept using the 89 im sure my fuel pump would be as messed up as me.

#2664 of 2858 screeching and grinding sounds from brakes by jjboy83

Mar 02, 2011 (8:34 pm)

Just recently i replaced my rotors and brake pads in my mazda6 06. It was a bit of a pain in the ass replaceing the rotors cause of those gay little screws. once i got them out it was really simple. but my problem is that my front right wheel i hear nothing but screeching and scrathing from it. When i turn ecspeacially sometimes when i accelerate but it doesnt happen all the time some times your hear nothing, and other times its all you can hear. but it not a constant sound its like theres a huge scratch on the rotor and when the wheel spins you can hear it make that sound at certain spots. what do i do

#2665 of 2858 2009 Mazda6 i: Chirping/Squealing Sound by mazda6dude

Mar 13, 2011 (4:56 pm)

I have a 2009 Mazda6 i Touring edition with the 2.5 Liter, 4 cylinder, 5 speed automatic. After turning on the engine and onces its warmed up, there is a constant chirping/squealing sounds coming from the engine. I opened the hood and the sounds seems to be coming from where the belt is located.
 
Any idea what the problem could be and how much will it cost to be fixed? It has 25,000 miles on it.
 
Feedback and Opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Aren't you still under warranty?

I have a 2006 mazda 6 s with 3.0 v6. i have the same issue. i have only had the rig for 6 months and it has 75000 miles on it. between 1/8 and 1/4 it sputters and goes into a shut down mode. it will idle but will not run. i can nurse it to a filling station and fill it up and the problem dissipates. i have been told it was a fuel pump, fuel filter and so on. the dealer informs me i will have to remove the tank and replace pump at a cost of 600.00. i prefer to just fill it up for know. any one else have a placeable solution.

I have 2009 mazda 6 i Grand Touring and am experiencing similar problem as you. i keep hearing beeping noise coming from the engine. i took it to the dealer last week, they said could find nothing wrong with it. drove it couldnt hear anything . they suspected i was hearing a/c compressor cycling. well thats wrong because i havent had a/c on or defroster and its still doing it. i just documented it on videotape. anyone know what this is? any comments would be helpful . this is driving me crazy! i also have a little over 25k miles.

my rig does not make any noise but when it gets between 1/8 and 1/4 tank of fuel it acts like it is running out of fuel. when you go down hill it will run witch indicates it is a fuel pump issue. the dealer said it would cost 600.00 dollars to repair fuel pump. i think i will just keep it above 1/4 tank and it runs fine. if any one comes to a solution maybe mazda will listen ha ha ha ha ..

I've been having issues with my trans. "jolting" into 4th from 3rd when I have it in Automatic. The dealer cant seem to reproduce the symptons, and my warranty will be up soon. There is however a Technician Service bulletin posted on ALL Data about the servo pistons not being built right in my particular year make and model made before march 4th 2008. this is B.S.!!!!
