    Diagnosing a potential problem before sale of Mazda 6 (6s, hatchback, 2004)

    I couldn't even begin to guess; that's a lot of syptoms/issues... In all honesty, if it were me, I'd consider sourcing another, lower-mileage engine altogether (given the miles on your current one, and your ridiculous commute). That, as opposed to chasing gremlins they way you've been doing...

    Funny Noise From The Steering System After the Car Has Been Driven For a While...

    Alright. For the record, DO NOT go with eBay arms. It hasn't even been two years, and they are completely worn. The OEM arms were loud and unhappy, but they still did their job. I was getting some other suspension work done and came to find that the bushings in the eBay arms had apparently...

    MS6 vs G8 GT?

    ^ Not to my knowledge. The G8 is gorgeous, but it always struck me as a 4-door GTO.
