Remember to clean out the oil pick-up in the sump before it kills your engine

This is what it looks like
when it kills your engine. |
Thanks to Adam Marsh for the pictures and info.

This is a nice new one. |
This happens when the oil gets polluted from
bad diesel when cleaning the DPF.
It can also happen if you use
the wrong engine oil.
Remember to check and clean it once in while.
Change the crappy speakers
I got my 6 with the cheap
crappy loudspeakers and that it is torture so I changed the speakers
to the Bass from a KAPPA 60.9 CS and a Panasonic tweeter EABST15.
The tweeter from the Kappa set was to big so I got the Panasonic
instead this could easy be so it would fit into the place where
Mazda had mounted the original tweeter. I made some fittings out of
plywood for the 6,5" speaker so they would fit into the doors.

Infinity Kappa 60.9 CS
2 ohm, 90 watts RMS, 95dB |
Tweeter from Panasonic
EABST15 |
|
 |
Here you see the Kappa Bass mounted in the door.
|
The sound is great and
for small money with the original radio and no extra
booster. The Infinity is a 2 ohm speaker and gives 95dB where a
normal speaker only gives around 89 dB so that's double the sound level.
So get more out of your radio and use Infinity.
Crappy Rain Sensor
I don't know what went
wrong for the Engineers at Mazda when they developed the rain sensor
system but I think they forgot to try it out in rainy weather that’s
for sure. I have tried lots of things to get it working but with no
god result. Then I stumbled over someone talking about "Rain X" and
I bought some from e-bay.
Now the damn thing works, that's spooky.
So Mazda every time you sell a car with a rain sensor put in a
bottle of "Rain X" so the costumer can get it working.
