    Current Mazda 6 Speed Offer

    I did this also and paid it off, but you can also refinance through another bank at a lower rate. They will charge you standard rates to be eligable for the 1000 cash back. I dont see a way around paying at least one month worth of interest. I have read where people get 5.9% from MAC but when...

    Sirius Satellite

    Thats good to know, I will go to a local shop to have it moved inside. I dont like the way it looks outside and the way the wire runs near the trunk hinge, I am sure it will get cut one day. The only reason I had the dealer install it was because it would be under warantee that way. Even on...

    Sirius Satellite

    I just got my car back from the dealer for the Siruis radio, sounds pretty good. They wouldnt install the antenna inside the car for me, they said it will not get enough signal. The display on the Mazda doesnt give you enough information in regards the programming. Not the best but a lot...

    Homelink Mirror

    I am trying to get the homelink/compass/autodim mirror for the MSP6. It seems that you can order this mirror as an option but they do not list one available as an accessory. They do list one for the regular Mazda 6. Does anyone know if I can use the regular 6's homlink mirror on the MSP6...

    Sirius Satellite

    I think it would be best if it were mounted inside. Thanks to everyone for the helpful replies.

    Sirius Satellite

    I agree, it doesnt look too good being out on the roof or on the trunk. I am going to ask for the dealer to install the antenna on the rear window. I think thats the best spot. Chicagokid, you got XM vs. Sirius? How did you get that to work with the stock HU. I actually like Sirius...

    Sirius Satellite

    When I purchased my Mazdaspeed6, the dealer did not have a car with Sirius from the factory. They ordered a unit that they will install this friday. Does anyone have installation instructions? Also do you know where they install the antenna when it is factory installed. Thanks.

    MP3's on the stock unit

    I see in the owners manual that the stock unit on the Mazdaspeed6 plays MP3's but it doesnt seem to work. Does anyone know what the deal is?

    GM Synchromesh is teh ROCK!!!!

    I didnt put this in my Mazdaspeed6 yet, so basically you guys are saying dont do it? I actually dont really have any complaints on how the the car shifts right now, where as the honda was notchy especially in the cold.

    GM Synchromesh is teh ROCK!!!!

    I used the GM synchromesh with FM based on reccomendations from other owners of the same car. The car specifies Honda MTF, I dont know the grade. All I can say is that it definately improved the smoothness of shifting. If you go to any honda forum, you will see tons of posts about it.

    Synthetic oil a must??

    Mobil 1 0w20 is hard to find, Mobil discontinued it and substituted 5W20 instead. Most 4cyl ford and honda vehicles use this oil. Zero weight seems to be thinner and in my experience it seems to run better with the thinner oil. If you go to Autozone you will most likely only find the 5W20...

    GM Synchromesh is teh ROCK!!!!

    I use this in my Honda and it makes the shifting a little less notchy, going into 1st and the 1st to 2nd shift is smoother. I cant comment on which one to get but the GM product is made by Penzoil but its what is preferred over the standard yellow penzoil stuff. Specifically the GM product...
