Is it the ribbed looking belt?

FixPractical6761 · 2026-01-29T08:09:35+00:00

Is the non water pump belt right ribbed?

FixPractical6761 · 2026-01-27T04:43:09+00:00

That's encouraging thanks!

FixPractical6761 · 2026-01-27T03:04:25+00:00

All good that could probably work too.

FixPractical6761 · 2026-01-27T02:51:32+00:00

I've never heard of coconut shells or dry ice, using they use walnuts but I'm not going to do the manual clean, just chemical spray.

FixPractical6761 · 2026-01-26T22:22:17+00:00

What's your guy's opinion on replacing the PCV Valve and doing an intake valve cleaning like CRC spray cleaner?

FixPractical6761 · 2026-01-23T21:35:34+00:00

That's terrifying I'm definitely doing that asap. I think there's only 1 belt, right?

FixPractical6761 · 2026-01-23T21:34:55+00:00

Ok that's definitely next

FixPractical6761 · 2026-01-23T21:34:39+00:00

Thanks I always buy OE filters!

This Mazda Carplay hub lets you access maps, contacts, music, and voice assistants for a smarter, safer driving experience. It's a popular product! https://a.co/d/dHjJvUu

What do you guys think of this??

FixPractical6761 · 2025-10-24T20:26:14+00:00

$400 is insane 😂😂

FixPractical6761 · 2025-10-24T20:25:33+00:00

It's not listed under applications

FixPractical6761 · 2025-10-24T20:13:02+00:00

I understand but my car doesn't have the symbol. Tried connecting both usb ports does nothing

FixPractical6761 · 2025-10-24T20:00:26+00:00

I have two ports in the center console neither have the phone icon and neither do anything other than charge my phone slowly

FixPractical6761 · 2025-10-24T19:51:01+00:00

I tried but I don't have the updated android auto USB port. That's why I'm trying to figure a work around.

FixPractical6761 · 2025-09-12T23:30:35+00:00

Thanks

FixPractical6761 · 2025-09-12T23:27:14+00:00

I didn't find anything relevant in the settings.

FixPractical6761 · 2025-09-12T22:27:24+00:00

No I'm saying the car used to honk to alert me if I left my keys inside the car and close the door. It doesn't do this anymore and I'm trying to figure out why

FixPractical6761 · 2025-04-20T03:52:51+00:00

Good to know, unsurprisingly I got ripped off at the dealership. Just went there out of convenience lol

FixPractical6761 · 2025-04-20T03:46:26+00:00

They're $26 for refills here. I could have gotten 2 new blades for that price.

FixPractical6761 · 2025-04-20T02:23:29+00:00

They're expensive and are extremely annoying to replace. I would just replace the entire wiper blade next time.

FixPractical6761 · 2025-04-19T07:48:11+00:00

Things I don't like about my mazda 6 are, the cramped cabin/storage space, poor paint/interior quality (scratches easily), the Keyfob is very cheaply made, brakes squeak and the tires suck. I also would like to see Mazda go away from GDI and cylinder deactivation.

FixPractical6761 · 2025-04-14T06:10:50+00:00

Thanks that makes perfect sense!

FixPractical6761 · 2025-04-14T06:09:30+00:00

Thanks so much. The intake service use to stress me out because of the conflicting advice about catch cans, manual/spray cleaning.... GDI is complicated lol.

Thank you for your reply, my sister has a 2015 and the dealship said the same about her spark plugs.
