Push the radio tuner knob in, it will cycle through bass, treble...etc, when you get to ACL, set it to your desired level, it is 0(ff), 1, 2, 3(max).
Nobody knows.. Or they wont tell you... Have to take it to the mazda dealer...
It is a good practice to fill up when the tank is 1/4 full and never let it get below 1/4 full. You can easily suck trash from the bottom of the tank and clog the fuel filter. A partially clogged fuel filter, overworking the pump, is a major cause of fuel pump failure. But to answer your question, I don't recommend it, but, you can easily drive 25 miles after the light comes on. Beyond that is pure speculation. It all depends on how much the reserve is on this car. Normally it will be 2 gallons.
If you do not have a manual for this vehicle, DO NOT PROCEDE! You have invaded the heart of the engine, and if you do not have a manual, you run the risk of doing damage to the engine if you put it back together wrong. YOU MUST GET THE CAMSHAFT ALIGNED WITH THE CRANKSHAFT IF THE ENGINE IS TO RUN CORRECTLY! Anytime you are reassembling a large component, with multiple screws or bolts, finger tighten all fastners until all fastners have been run down finger tight. Then, working across the component, tighten one fastner snug, then go to the diagonal fastner, and tighten it snug. FOLLOW TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS! If you are working without a torgue wrench, try to tighten all fastners as uniformly as possible. Torgue specifications are critical on many automotive parts, and it is worth buying or renting a torque wrench to get them right. Work all fastners down in steps, avoid tightening one faster all the way while others are loose or only finger tight. This can cause warpage of parts, and may prevent all fastners from being tightened properly.
Check radiator hose, leaking water pump, look for hole in radiator, leaking coolant bottle or leaking seals.
Unplug negative cable of battery, wait 30 sec & plug cable wite back, engine light reset ...walah!

You need to know the vehicle's average economy and have an estimate of how many miles you plan on driving.
To calculate the car's average fuel economy, you need to fill the tank and write down the vehicle's mileage and then drive it until empty (using your normal driving habits). when you fill the tank again, get the mileage and subtract the first mileage reading from that. Take that number and divide it by the number of gallons you purchased and that will tell you the car's average mileage.
*(Mileage 1- Mileage 2)/ gallons= average fuel economy*
To calculate future fuel usage, take your average economy and multiply that by the number of miles you plan on driving.
*average fuel economy X estimated miles= estimated future fuel usage*

If you turn it on, the volume will change depending on your speed to compensate for engine noise.
When they are about 3/4 worn before scoring and damage to rotors occurs
Headlight fuses for this generation Mazda 6 should be located in the engine compartment fuse box. Pull the lid off the fuse box and flip it over. There should be a diagram there etched in the plastic to tell you what each fuse is for.
A 2005 Mazda6i has 160hp and the 2005 Mazda 6s has 220 hp.
Mazda6 noiseThe noise from the engine, which really came from the exhaust flange with the two springs, was very annoying. But I have fixed it by spraying from down with lubricant tri-flow with Teflon, after a week the noise was gone. (Be careful for fire, wait before starting)

Hey Guys,
It's not a rattle, its like a whistling noise, and it gets louder as the car gets hotter.
This noise has to do with the exhaust flange, when you hear the noise it sounds like there is something wrong with the engine. Mazda are fully aware of the problem. If i didn't know about this and i was buying my car second hand, i would think that there is something wrong with the car and i wouldn't consider buying for that reason.
If your friends has one that doesnt make this noise i would be happy to swap my car with them. My partners 1991 VN Commodore sounds better than my car.
Garry and Warren Smith Mazda (Mulgrave, Victoria) fix my exhaust flange squeeking noise @ 40,000km service six months ago. I just completed my 50,000km service today and the noise hasn't returned, so I'll keep my fingers cross.
This whistling sound should only be heard whilst the car is warm and at a standstill. I do not know of anyone who can hear the exhaust flange noise whilst the car is moving.
Perhaps you have found yet another problem with these cars!
My car had the same issue. It does emanate from the join directly in front of the catalyst, where the exhaust manifold meets up.
There is a "fix", or a replacement part, that will reduce the squeaking noise, subjectively, by about 30-40%. It's a ring seal, part number L3A140581.
I had this fitted at the 10000 kay service. The next afternoon, the flange was wailing like a banshee, it really was that loud. I took the car back to my servicing/selling dealer, they removed the flange, applied a graphite paste (akin to no-seize), and that reduced the noise greatly.
Like I said before, it, subjectively, reduces the noise by 30-40%.
My advice to all of you that have this noise, is to definitely get the new ring seal, but make sure that a graphite paste(no seize) is applied when fitting. It's all under warranty.
And yes, it's the same noise I had on a 2005 Mazda 6 2 litre TS hatch I had in England. Same fix , however.
Just wanted to give you all an update as to what Mazda are now doing to stop this noise.
My car was purchased in May 06 and has been back to the dealership 4 times to have this problem fixed, but it keeps on returning no matter what they try to do to fix it.
What they are doing now is changing the gasket, spring and converter. The part numbers are L3A140581, BP4740582 and L3A42055XB.
Will let you know if this latest fix finally addresses the issue.
my hatch has rattled worse since I first mentioned it to them. I think they make it worse each time they touch it.
Bad brake pads (wear indicator rubbing rotor), brake pads not retracting and rubbing rotor, or bad wheel bearings. You need to have this looked at before possible great damage is done.

the filter is in the pump and whats funny is the factory doesnt have an interval for changing it.
basically saying it doesnt need to be changed. but if you want to change it, u'd need to buy a pump and replace it like that
In a 2003 Mazda 6, open the glove box, squeeze the sides gently and remove ithe box. The cabin air filter is directly behind where the glove box lives. It is a simple matter to unlatch the door and pull the old filter out. Reverse your steps to install the new filter and glove box. It helps to empty the glove box first so you don't spill anything.

the color of the positive wire should be a bright red color.
I use NGK Iridium spark plugs they run around i belive 8-9$ each they work well, Id reccomened changing your spark plug wires for better enegine respone, if its been over 5 years or lack of combustion, and less respone. Use aftermarket brands, rated alittle hotter to burn the fuel more efficently, Ngk is still another good brand or taylor never used them though.
