Ok, so I bought the new Mazda6 i grand touring in Feb., and so far, other than a few fit/finish irritations, I'm loving it. ....However, today I turned on the auto sensing wipers, and the wipers worked properly for a bit, but then began going in "high" speed and wouldn't stop no matter how I turned the dial. I then lowered the arm to the "high" speed and back up, and the wipers again worked properly for a bit before engaging in high speed once again. During the glitch with the wipers, the BSM off warning light began to flash and wouldn't go off no matter how many times I pressed the bsm button. The flashing light finally went off by itself, only to come back on shortly thereafter. It stayed on flashing for about thirty seconds, and went off again. I did so much research before buying this car, and now I'm getting apprehensive about my purchase. I owned an old Camry before this, and had very few problems over 18yrs. of ownership. Does anyone know what could have caused the glitch, and do you offer any solutions?? Thanks... |

Replying to: darkmanrob85 (Apr 13, 2009 5:35 am) Can you post a picture of your car? Im curious on how it looks. Also, do the tints effect the auto dimming mirrors? I was concerned that when i tinted my windows, my outside mirrors would no long dim. I guess it doesnt matter thou.. cause my windows would be tinted.

Replying to: snoopy316 (Apr 13, 2009 8:16 am) Shouldn't affect them at all. The mirrors react to the light that hits them. The tint on the windows doesn't affect headlight glare from behind the car hitting the outside mirrors. |

Has anyone seen (or purchased) a Mazda6 'Touring' with Convenience Package? The Convenience Package replaces the standard cloth seats with cloth/leather combination. In theory, it sounds like a great alternative for folks like me who aren't fond of full leather interiors. I wish they were heated (like the leather seats in the Grand Touring models), but that's a minor issue. Any thoughts/opinions on the combo seat trim?

Does anyone else find the 17" alloy wheel design unappealing? It looks very similar to the 16" wheel cover on i SV/Sport models. The 18" alloys on the s Touring/Grand Touring fit the look and size of the car perfectly, IMO. The 17" doesn't have a lot of open space, which the 18" does. The 17" alloys from the Mazda3 s would look very sharp on the MZ6 instead! |

I am very much interested in finding out from new owners if your Insurance rates went up with Mazda 6? Trying to understand why my agent claims my rates will go up by about $20 a month even though my current car when new, is about 8K more than a Mazda 6. I would really appreciate any responses... Thanks.
