Buying a 118k miles (190k km) 22 premium
Thoughts? It's for a good price and I heard quite a lot of good things about Mazda and their engines.
The dealer is offering a 50k miles/3 years warranty. No visual problems with the car and obviously I will take it to a 3rd party for inspection.

Just got this beauty today 23 CX-5 Turbo
Sister was borrowing my 2013 Rx 350 and hit a deer totaling it. So I pulled the trigger on this. Only 14k miles.
Am loving it so far but a few questions.
The engine noise is definitely put through the speakers right? There's no way a 4cylinder turbo sounds like that inside.
And I can't get the car to notify me of text messages. Whether in park or driving. It's a 2025 Motorola ultra. Not using android auto.
Also kind of lame there's no wireless android auto.
Other than that I love it.

Sonido de mi mazda 6
Hola comunidad, escribo para pedir su opinión experta sobre un problema con mi Mazda 6 2007. Adjunto dos videos (uno de antes y otro de después del trabajo del taller) para que puedan escuchar el sonido.
Antecedentes e intervención del taller:
- El carro ingresó originalmente con dos códigos de falla: P0012 y P2010.
- El taller abrió el sistema de distribución y descubrió dos problemas graves iniciales: la empacadura no era la adecuada y la cámara (culata) instalada era de un modelo viejo (2005), por lo que los orificios de aceite no coincidían con el bloque del 2007.
- Tuve que comprar otra cámara, la cual mandaron a rectificar.
- Al armar, quedó un ruido extrañó. Luego me dijeron que el tensor/guía ("rashe") estaba malo y tuve que comprar otro. A pesar de cambiarlo, el carro quedó con un sonido constante a máquina de coser en la parte superior.
Síntomas y códigos actuales:
- Códigos activos: El P2010 persiste. El P0012 se había ido temporalmente, pero volvió a aparecer. (Nota: Me apareció también un P0443 de emisiones que el taller ya corrigió).
- Consumo: El carro tiene un consumo exagerado de gasolina.
- Falla de ralentí: Al frenar o en ralentí, las revoluciones caen drásticamente a 300 RPM, el carro tarda en responder al acelerar, y la falla empeora notablemente al encender el aire acondicionado.
La postura del taller: Me aceptan la garantía y dicen estar dispuestos a revisar la calibración de nuevo (aunque confían ciegamente en su rectificadora). Sin embargo, como "peor de los casos", insisten en que el sonido es un "pasador de pistón", omitiendo por completo el análisis de los códigos electrónicos e hidráulicos activos (P0012 y P2010) que siguen en la computadora.
Mis preguntas para los expertos:
- ¿Basándose en los síntomas, los códigos (P0012/P2010) y el sonido superior, esto apunta realmente a un pasador de pistón abajo en el bloque, o es un problema derivado del armado de la cámara, la sincronización o la presión de aceite superior?
- ¿Qué opinan del comportamiento del carro en los semáforos (caída a 300 RPM) tras estos trabajos?..
- Pd, reddit no me deja subir el video por lo que adjunto el video de como suena mi carro actualmente

Mazda can’t start without placing key on ignition
Hey guys
My mazda won’t start less i touch the key fob to the ignition, i got it a week ago but then i noticed the battery was really low but even then the dash would light up and i would be able to jumpstart, then i couldn’t jumpstart it anymore and i figured the battery was dead
i’ve changed the key fob battery and the car battery itself, it starts without any issues when i use the key fob
but as soon as i turn it off the entire car goes dead like there’s nothing on at all, no dash lights nothing
and also even when it starts the infotainment screen is completely dead. No back up camera no sound
UPDATE: It was the room fuse, its all good now thank you!

Howdy all! Not sure if anyone has done this but I've grown tired of the stock infotainment unit. I already have the stock backup camera installed, is there any units anyone has tried that pairs with existing tech in the car?

Mazda-6 2009 help.
TL:DR: car won't crank/start, Key is recognized, brake switch changed, radio/horn/alarm does not work. Have bought a new stock steering lock but trying to see if it's anything else before replacing it. Pressing the ignition currently does not even trigger the theft lock. I have an Autel device to read codes without the on position. cannot get car to ACC or ON position.
First off, I had bought a used 155k miles Mazda-6 2009 from a family friend for cheap because other car never got fixed. So I'm a year into a bunch of car issues and kinda broke trying to fix my previous car. hoping some Mazda techs could help out here as there aren't many answers out there. Currently the car recognizes the key and when I hit the brake, both stages of the brake press are green. It is a button start only. No key turn ignition. So far, I have checked the fuses, changed the brake switch, and I have an extra steering lock to replace since the immobilizer and antenna are also inside. Thinking maybe there's a short somewhere but I also cannot get it to the ACC or ON position even with everything green. If I replace the steering lock and I can get it to the ON, I can't reprogram it anyways.
The previous owner had said that the radio doesn't work and tried to have it fixed and they jumped something to a fuse under the dashboard by the floor. It still wouldn't work after some time so he kept driving it for many years as a key only car. Key fob locking, radio, interior lights don't work and he would insert the key to have the car recognize it to start.
Trying to figure out what my next step is, whether to change the steering lock, check the wiring for shorts, or something else. I just don't have any money left after a years worth of paying for my previous car which never got fixed. Any help would be great

Anyone have experience with Miatafy?
This seems to be some relatively new shop selling custom firmware for gen 6 infotainment. Has anyone looked into this? I'd be reluctant to pay for any sort of firmware or tweaks, as this is the first time I've ever heard of someone selling cfw.

New passenger weather strip?
Got a 2023 CX9. Can I buy this part and fix on my own? If so, what's the name of what to look for? Sometimes the door doesn't close properly as a result of it not being attached.
Asked the dealership how much it would cost to replace and they quoted me $260 😒😒
If it's gonna cost a pretty penny to replace then I can live with it; however, I'd ideally love to have it fixed.
