Glad you enjoy the MS6 so much. AWD, anti-lock brakes, and stability control are nice to have in the snow (in addition to its inherently excellent handling). I went skiing here in Colorado this week, on the heels of a snow storm, to catch the fresh powder. I drove about 300 miles on snowy roads and witnessed three accidents due to the conditions but felt fairly confident and very comfortable in my MS6.

New issues have surfaced with my '06 MS6 GT. My dealer is covering all of the new issues under warranty.
 
5th issue was a rattle upon cold start up. Fix: V V T TSB (retaining pin not engaging) Dealer replacing V V T and heat treated the pin retaining hole.
 
6th issue was low fuel pressure from the cam driven high pressure fuel pump causing lean conditions under load. Fix: Dealer replaced OEM HPFP with updated OEM pump and reflashed the PCM to improve the drive current from pump.
 
7th issue was a crank pulley bolt TSB. Fix: Dealer replaced crank bolt and re-timed the engine.

Sorry you've had so much trouble. My 06 MS6 Sport has been completely problem-free since I bough it new 18 months ago. But I think I mine may be the exception not the rule.

Yo brothers.......the Mazda6 is a pain in the ass to work on. But I have good news.......do not buy the stupid oil filter socket. If you have a large pair of channel locks, it actually works well. So save yourself a little cash and do it that way. If you don't have a pair big enough, well, get the stupid filter socket cause its cheaper than large channel locks!!

Yo Brothers........I hope that workshop manual for the Mazda 6 is good. I ordered one today. I could not change the parking light bulb! The engineers engineered it so complex, you can't do it yourself. Those bastards!
 
I have a 09 Silverado.
 
 I bought this car for my daughter. I would never own a Mazda.

That's very interesting, but this is a forum about the Mazdaspeed6, which was only manufactured in model years 2006 and 2007, and is a turbocharged all-wheel drive version of the Mazda 6.
