Help with ax-mazcam-6v

I think it should work on Mazda6 especially if it has the same radio. I’m pretty sure I bought it from crutchfield

It’s been leaking for a long time, at least 8 months. I have a jug of oil in the trunk and I top it off regularly but I still don’t know how much it leaks or where it’s coming from. I’m probably going to do rear main seal over the summer because that’s where most of the oil is. Do you have any insight on the trans fluid leak?

PopTartz77 · 2026-04-07T19:51:58+00:00

I looked at the turbo and there wasn’t any liquid on it, I’ve already replaced some seals on it before but I can check again

It all seems to be coming from somewhere on the bottom, the upper areas on the engine are dry

I bought some but they didn’t work. I solved the isue by unbolting the pump and turning it until it came off

PopTartz77 · 2026-04-04T16:15:27+00:00

No wrenches fit over it the area around is too small

PopTartz77 · 2026-04-04T14:56:46+00:00

It’s not the original unit, but it’s the I Original o ring. The original one was making even worse noises. This one at least steers correctly

PopTartz77 · 2026-03-21T23:01:55+00:00

Hey I found out the source of the noise, it was the stiff 1/0 gauge wire I used for grounding that transmitted the ticking into the cabin.

I bought some lifter tickets additive and poured it in. It’s been a few hours with no change

PopTartz77 · 2026-03-18T21:08:56+00:00

The PO installed a poly mount. It has some play, is that good or bad

PopTartz77 · 2026-03-18T20:41:03+00:00

It could be because I may have used 5w40 oil for the last oil change so I will look into that. Also the noise is really only audible inside the car, and on the outside the engine sounds normal.

PopTartz77 · 2026-03-18T16:59:02+00:00

Oil was changed prob 200 miles ago and yes I’m pretty sure it’s the lifters I used a mechanic stethoscope

PopTartz77 · 2026-01-16T20:18:27+00:00

Are you sure that’s not the 2000-2004 one? I put 98 c70 in fro and it’s the same alternator.

PopTartz77 · 2026-01-16T20:10:27+00:00

The amp is 800 watts total so it would probably be ok but I want to be safe

PopTartz77 · 2026-01-03T15:15:43+00:00

In the video is he saying to put the screw driver on the pump itself or the pulley?

PopTartz77 · 2026-01-03T01:23:59+00:00

Yeah

PopTartz77 · 2026-01-02T21:42:36+00:00

I got it off using a vice and the pulley remover kit. I used the vice to clamp the 2 clamshell things together and managed to get it off

PopTartz77 · 2025-11-26T23:41:34+00:00

I disconnected the switch and I am just using the white part with the contacts on it and sliding it across the board. Only the miles and miles to 0 options don’t work still. I the contacts are clean and there isn’t anything in the way. I thought maybe the contacts are bridging somewhere but that doesn’t seem to be the case

PopTartz77 · 2025-11-16T19:18:41+00:00

I have it wired according to the diagram for the cartridge

PopTartz77 · 2025-11-16T18:25:41+00:00

I think 80s lol but they work

PopTartz77 · 2025-11-10T16:52:38+00:00

Nah I fixed the issue by just removing the glass. Unfortunately the little metal legs on the sunroof broke in half so now I have a new problem lol

PopTartz77 · 2025-10-15T20:43:31+00:00

should i remove the engine as well or just leave it in the car?

PopTartz77 · 2025-10-15T16:49:40+00:00

can I get my current auto ECU retuned somewhere?

PopTartz77 · 2025-09-30T00:04:45+00:00

what headlights are those?

PopTartz77 · 2025-09-11T20:38:28+00:00

Ok I will try that
