Hi , I changed mine with Halfords but when driving I can hear some rubbing sound on the left side ,what could be the issue ?
@KlavsX_8 күн бұрын
What kind of rubbing sound is it? metal to metal or rubber to metal. That could be anything, lose bolts, wrong installment that the alignment is incorrect, other components have failed, wheels rubbing on suspension, the list goes on.

Without looking at the left side suspension, it's a guessing game. you have there anti-roll bar, upper suspension arm, shock, the wheel could rub on the wheel arch if the plastics clips haven't been put back in properly. For now I can guess.

Bought a Mazda 6 GH a few months back and your videos are a true source of inspiration, such an amazing amount of information, I can't believe it. Too bad these are not such popular cars and the information is rarely available. With that in mind, do you know if there is a factory solution to remove the roof rails that the M6 comes with, and cover the holes? I'm looking to remove the roof rails but I want a factory solution to cover the holes and protect everything from the weather, so it looks OEM.
@KlavsX_13 күн бұрын
👌Welcome to the Jap cars, that have a rust issue club😅😂 The underside needs to be treated, if you live in a wet climate. I'm actually working on preparing the video for this exact question you have. Yes, there is a factory solution to that. ( I will be making a video on how to do it in the future, once I get all the materials/ stuff needed) Buy ''Roof Rail Rack Moulding Clip Cover'' for your model. Sadly only sedans come with a flap that can be lifted and closed again, for a slick and OEM look. Estates have longer roof rails, that aren't made in 1 piece

Thank you for your videos on the Mazda 6 GH. I have the same problems as you. You started with the EGR valve. It was a good idea because it pointed out the problems. Now you have replaced the two O2 sensors. Do you think that all the problems came from the two sensors only? If so, I will start with that. What do you think?
@KlavsX_Ай бұрын
👍 You are welcome. Going through all of that, I suspect that the first o2 sensor was the main trouble maker ( The one closer to engine). I still haven't checked the situation with fuel pump and the filter, that could be one of the causes

@@KlavsX_ I also have the fuel filter on my list. I will order a new filter and the O2 sensors today. Then I'll have a look. The air mass sensor would also be a possibility. I hope that's the right word in English. I mean the sensor at the top of the air filter, you can try cleaning it.
@KlavsX_Ай бұрын

That could be many reasons why. Without a scan tool or the car showing sign's of failing parts, it will be a guessing game.

Nice but... 1. I don't want to calculate what fueling my complete tank may cost. Can i just say 100 bucks and then fuel up let's say only for 55 bucks, whatever it costs fueling up the tank? 2. Sitting in the car for 2 minutes doing nothing but typing on the phone... the others in the cue behind me will be annoyed i think. And at the end i don't spare much time. I usually wait longer at the pump cueue than at the cashier cueue. Du you really use this feature?
@KlavsX_Ай бұрын
🤔 Why do you want to calculate something? just put the amount you want to fill up, once the tank is full, the pump will stop, and how much went inside, that amount will be charged. 😅 eem, if you are waiting in line for the pump, why don't you do ''all that'' while waiting? You can see the pump number from a distance. All you must do once it's your turn is press pay and fuel up. No need to walk inside or to the cashier. Aren't the same 2 minutes you sit in the car using the app, the same amount for you go to the cashier, pay, and return to your car? The only downside I see for this app is human interaction, no need to go to the cashier or inside a building. I'm using this app all the time, as I live in a big city and don't want to wait in line while somebody orders hot dogs, then gets a lottery ticket and decides they want ice cream. 😅😅😅 ( Extra bonus you get the receipt in your email, easy to do taxes if you do business drives)
@derFuchsiАй бұрын
@@KlavsX_ Ok so it doesn't matter if i set a too high amount of money in the app, i only pay what i fueled up. Makes sense. I didn't think of using the app while waiting for the pump because i thought i can't do that while someone is using the pump. But i only have to wait with the final confirmation ok i understand. Thanks your information helps a lot. Maybe i will do that.
@KlavsX_Ай бұрын
👍 Glad I could help. Yeah, you pay what you put in your tank. You will have an email with all the information. No, you 100% can put in the pump NR, choose how much you wanna spend, and once you are parked at the pump and ready to go out fuel up, press pay, wait for the confirmation, and on you go.
