    What could be causing my '04 Mazda 2 to stall?
    Answered by Graham Smith · 22 March 2018

    The warning light is telling you there is a problem and that you should have a diagnostic check done on it. The idle speed is probably too low to sustain reliable running. It’s possibly a faulty sensor sending a false message to the computer.

    Can I skip my car's servicing?
    Answered by Graham Smith · 2 February 2018

    Skipping oil changes is the worst possible thing to do, the oil will get thick and sludgy and the risk is that it will block the galleries in the engine, and in the worst case it could cause the engine to fail.

    Best fuel efficient small sedan?
    Answered by Carsguide.com.au · 18 January 2016

    Mazda2, from a classy brand and great against its size and price rivals; Hyundai i20, great value and probably still with some of the factory warranty; Volkswagen Polo, not necessarily to buy but to provide a quality benchmark for the others.

    Knocked Back On Repair
    Answered by Graham Smith · 14 August 2009

    START by getting a second opinion. If that is that the noise is not acceptable then approach your dealer to have something done about it. Hopefully you reported it to the dealer while your warranty was running, that way you will have more clout when it comes to a claim against Mazda. If your dealer is unhelpful then go straight to Mazda.
