cwellington

Does anyone know the OEM part numbers of the 03 - 04 mazda 6 front and rear brake pads? Or at least a tried suitable replacement? Cause am trying to find them, refuse to go in southern sales, don't mind paying extra but their service (or lack their of) can't get my money. So if any of you all know o...

I got my alternator from here www.autopartswarehouse.com. You might need to call the credit card company and get the 6 digit transaction code from them so that they can verify that you're actually the holder of the card. As they don't accept international visas. They have an assortment of brands inc...

Well guys I replace my alternator and the alternator was dead. I put in a new one and today my battery light came on. Thing is I tested my battery and it's fully charged and with the car on I am getting a reading of 13.55 - 60 volts. I have no idea what's going on with this car at this point. I seri...

Well my battery came on and stayed on this afternoon. I am praying to God that it's not my new alternator that I just shipped and installed 2 months ago! I am soooooo really to take a tank of gas to this car!

Check here http://onlinemazdaparts.com/parts/2003/ ... R%20PULLEY I think it is the same for the 2.0 and 2.3 engine It's supposed to be the same. The only reason I didn't go with that site before is cause they don't show you a pic of what you're buying or the product numbers. You bought from there ...

Mazda 6 2.0, engine number: LF 298701. I am guessing that's what you mean?

cwellington

Well I ordered a Goodyear 49006 Gatorback Idler and Tensioner Pulley from amazon and they said it's a perfect fit for my car. Low and behold when it gets here my mechanic saying it's too big. Any one has the part number of the idler pulley for the 03 mazda6? Or know where I can get one to buy?

You know I asked damn mechanic if I should change the idler pulley when I change the belt tensioner and he said no, they don't really go bad together. I think I need to go and learn engine repair. Thanks man.

You know I never bothered to have them check that. I'll look into that, thanks man.

I changed my tensioner and belt (within the past month), I have a new alternator as well. This noise is driving me insane.

Tradecar lists for many dealers and pravate sellers and their markup is higher.
Look at iauc.

zac

Not to be a bother but what's IAUC?

cwellington

Ok you lost me at admissability requirements. What's that about? Sorry about my ignorance, this is all still fairly new to me.

cwellington

Anyone here used or heard of anyone that used tradecarview.com to import cars? Am trying to get a rep review before I do anything with them. Or any recommends are welcome. You can never have too many options.

cwellington

Hey man, I was just about to create a post about this. Did you ever get it sorted out? This noise is driving me crazy! I believe it's getting louder.

cwellington

Sorry to say am never going through the firm again. A big part of the reason am in this mess is because of them. Anyway, I order my parts online. I got my belt and tensioner from amazon. I didn't need the part number, I created a garage on their site and they basically tell me what fits and what doe...

cwellington

So I changed my serpentine belt and belt tensioner all because I was hearing a noise that was sounding like a sort of vibrating/semi-crackling one and starts approx. 20 secs after the engine starts, when the car is at a standstill and in traffic. The noise gets louder when the car is at a standstill...

I don't know if anyone else suffered from this but I've been getting a misfire on my cylinder 2 in my coil pack at least that's what the computer said when the mech ran a diagnostic. I tried replacing the coil pack based on the advice of the mechanic and all am seeing online is the OEM replacement w...

I currently own a 2003 Mazda 6, local used with southern sales. I am looking at doing a little cosmetic upgrades to the vehicle before I sell it around august next year. How much upgrades can one do to a vehicle before compromising it's value. Can customizing a vehicle increase it's value, maintain ...
