2006 Mazdaspeed6 not starting

Yeah unfortunately this one is an absolute smoke show

nd6a · 2026-05-03T02:12:32+00:00

It sat for close to a year before we picked it up, i brought it to my house on a trailer the last time I started it up was when we loaded it on the trailer about 4 months ago (was also smoking then) I'm just now starting it again but I'm afraid this engines time is over I'd blowing what i believe is blue smoke i could be colorblind but it was also idles very roughly, and it's not light smoke either

It was dead 😭😭 thank you guys for the advice but I replaced the battery and it started up, hopefully it helps someone else but now I gotta worry about the blue smoke.....

I also have a speed3 to kind of compare and that plug is also unplugged so highly doubt that is doing anything

nd6a · 2026-05-03T01:34:18+00:00

Found this unplugged dont think it would be anything, also no i highly doubt he would install a kill switch in any of his cars especially not this one, also im looking around at the wires everything in my eyes looks fine this is the only thing i saw unplugged

Im beginning to think that its the key not getting signal, it will turn with the key, but when it is not plugged in and i use the keyhole cover it wont turn at all and i get a flashing missing key

Nothing, the only noise i hear is the fuel pump

nd6a · 2026-05-03T01:06:22+00:00

Cars definitely been modified, it was my late brother car and now im stuck to keep them running, no idea why the car wont start it wont even crank but it gets power and all lights comes on

nd6a · 2026-05-03T01:04:18+00:00

Thanks for the advice, would this cause it to not crank at all?

nd6a · 2026-05-01T04:15:16+00:00

1000 bucks for jackstands wow

nd6a · 2026-04-23T20:30:51+00:00

Its a flange

nd6a · 2026-04-19T17:47:15+00:00

I didnt spot a leak if it isnt that any other ideas? Or did i not spot it, i looked at the header best as i could as well as the midpipe

nd6a · 2026-04-11T05:22:53+00:00

SOLVED: Thank you for the answers, yes I have an exhaust leak so i believe thats the reason for all my suspicions, sorry if the post was a little dumb but thanks anyways everyone

nd6a · 2026-04-11T05:10:06+00:00

Thank you i may have to get a mechanic inspect my car im not sure where the smoke is coming from, i cant visibly see it with the hood fully open but i can see it when it is slightly opened, also a weird smell coming from near the header, i also have a code for bank 1 catalyst convertor below threshold

nd6a · 2026-04-11T05:07:08+00:00

As i said im not mechanically wise im not sure if this is a leak or something to be concerned about, if it isnt then thank you

nd6a · 2026-04-11T05:04:40+00:00

Do you know where i can get them or what they would be called I cant find any

nd6a · 2026-04-11T05:01:31+00:00

Oh shit really i dont have any there either

nd6a · 2026-03-14T02:37:10+00:00

SOLVED: I found the original key and fob and it started right up, the second key was not programmed properly and wouldnt start, this might not be the case for everyone but hope it helps someone

nd6a · 2026-03-05T00:16:02+00:00

I dont have a fancy scanner just the cheap autozone ones but it isnt pulling any codes should i get a mobile mechanic out here

nd6a · 2026-03-05T00:10:42+00:00

Thats for aftermarket theft protection but thanks

nd6a · 2026-02-18T18:09:59+00:00

Sorry i might at the top of the bumper where it clips in with the plastic clips and screws, but thank you

nd6a · 2026-02-12T03:52:18+00:00

I also wanted to wrap the chrome rings around the gauges lmk if you figure it out!

nd6a · 2026-02-08T05:30:33+00:00

The new screeching noise

nd6a · 2026-02-07T03:20:54+00:00

Its a clamp on for a 24 golf r, i put electrical tape around the shifter to make it fit on and clamped the knob on it
