I hope you have a good ride with it

I'd want to add a third row to my dualiner as you did; do you happen to have the drill sizes you used? I doubt my yoda-like sense of smell could locate the caged nuts. Did you also insert the fourth seating row? Many vianos and travelers don't seem to be aware of it, and I wonder whether that's due of the gas tank. I want to be able to share in your joy. Thanks

I've had two C207s and been very satisfied with each one. My buddy has a great connection with his local BMW dealer, but he's been thinking about making a switch. Keep still, I said, and he complied. It's unfortunate that, contrary to people' experiences on this site, not all Mercedes dealers are as good as the one I use.

My M103 W124 260E has only ever used Mann oil filters.A genuine Mercedes oil filter was what I used the previous time.Compared to Mann and Bosch, they are noticeably shorter in stature.

OFTR That's kind of the point.Though it's not always completely accurate.

A Piece of The Road, It's the models I'm familiar with, not the powertrains. Therefore, I agree with you that the model should be included in the forum post.

Only the cylinder head is different that I'm aware of.In order to access it, however, the cylinder head must be removed. This is a gas-powered motor. In order to facilitate everyone's search, you should have specified diesel. Check this guidebook for answers. Index of the Model 124 Maintenance Guide I knew a man who changed his oil and filter and ran into the same issue...Mann or Mercedes filters only.

As anticipated. The timing chain must be replaced. Do I let them do it and then complain about why it needed to be done in the first place, or do I get off their case? I have already complained to them when I scheduled the appointment and received a free diagnostic test and a verbal agreement that I will not be charged more than £1000 for the work. I have already shelled out £100 for a hair car for the previous weekend. Surely they should be aware of this type of problem, or at least if a service recall was issued due to this flaw. The aforementioned dealer has been present for who knows how long. before 2008 at minimum. Apologies, the tirade is over. I'll acquire my outerwear.

I took the automobile to the Mazda service centre this morning. Let the games and hilarity commence.

Thank you all. Honestly, even the men at Mazda were stunned by the issue and said it never should have occurred. There is no mention of a timing chain repair or service recall anywhere in the vehicle's documentation. I believe it was never completed. I'll take everything I've read about it here and see what they say. (And I am not driving it because it is off the road). Prior to this Mazda, I had three others, and none of them were so problematic. In fact, I've never had a problem with any of them before this one. I will definitely complete my assignments next time. And I don't think my next vehicle will be a Mazda.

Cheers. I have just finished reviewing the vehicle's papers and service records, and there is no mention of a timing chain repair anywhere. When did Mazda issue the timing chain recall, and where can I get documentation of this? Is there any way to verify that this is true and that Mazda will provide a discount as a goodwill gesture? Regarding the friendly overture, what exactly are we discussing? Price reductions of at least £100 but up to £300?

Hi Guys, Sorry if you've already talked about this (from what I've seen, I think you have). First of all, let's talk about the car. Mazda 6 (2010) 2.2L Sport (Reg: L). I'm the second person to own the car, and I've had it for about 3–4 years. Mileage so far: 65925. So, the DPF light began to flash last Sunday. I took it to a local expert who will put it on the computer to see what the error code is. Here are the results: Code: P1336 Cam/Crank sensor problem; DPF levels are high; advised that the DPF isn't being cleaned because the timing chain is stretched. They did the test for £90 and said that fixing it would cost more than £1400. Some people also say it's an 18-hour job. I only paid for the test. Today, I took it to a different shop to get a second opinion because when I called a few people, I got different answers. Just got a call from the second shop, which confirmed that the same problem code was given. They went on to say that they are almost 90% sure that the timing chain needs to be replaced, but they would need to check the timing first. That would set me back £216 plus VAT. If they need to repair the chain, that and the other checks will cost me more than £1000. When I told the Mazda shop what was wrong, they said they could fix it next Tuesday. They would check again (for free), and the whole thing would cost me £1018. I've been looking online and on this site, and I'm starting to have trouble figuring out what the problem is and how much I should expect to pay to fix it. Need help? please?

I just went through something quite similar. I have a 1967 license plate, and my car has just over 26 thousand miles on the odometer. The engine management light has illuminated, and Mazda has indicated that the vehicle's motor requires a decoke. I find it hard to think that an engine with such little mileage would need one

Excellent work! I'm looking at the same trim level GT Sport to replace my 2009 Takara Gen 1. What exactly do you mean by "small orchestra"?
