What have you done to your Mazda6 today?

[Jay Davidson]

where did you get the oil cap wrench? I need to change my oil, but the oil cap wrenches for my mazda 3 were garbage and wouldn't grab hold... had to use my dad's universal one meant for the spin-on filters. why oh why did mazda choose the cartridge type?

I used a standard metal strap wrench. It may not have been the best tool for the job, but it worked just fine.

We did the Cabot Trail last year, it was a beautiful Drive! It was in a little rental car (Nissan Versa!), but still enjoyable.

Just a few weeks ago we were on another trip, and driving some of the best driving roads in the world (according to Top Gear), the Stelvio Pass, the San Bernardino Pass, and the Grimsel Pass, through the Alps from Italy into Switzerland.

Here's a sneak peak, I'll try to post a thread with pics and video...
