2004 Mazda 6 Noise coming from intake?
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.
What is causing a squeaking noise in your front left wheel?
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.

How do you Change cabin air filter on Mazda?
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.

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.

Where is the PCV Valve located on a 3.0 Liter Mazda 6?
The PVC valve is located between the firewall and the top edge of the exhaust manifold and can be easily replaced with 6" needle nose plyers, a small tip flat head screw driver and a little patience.
Find the PCV valve and first step remove the black hose that runs from the valve to the manifold. On the side of the manifold t here is a vacum hose adjacent to the PCV hose that can be removed for better access. Once the PCV hose is removed you will note a cap with a 45 degree offset onto of the PCV valve. There is a clip (green) at the base of the cap that can be lifted to release it. Once this is off the PCV valve is exposed. The tricky part is to pry up or lift a small integrated tab that seats in a notch at the opening where the valve is seated in the block. Using a slot (i.e flat head) screwdriver lift the tab while turning the old PCV valve counter clockwise. It will pop out but you may want use the plyers to turn it.
The installation is reverse. You will see how it is seated, just ensure that the new valve is turned as far as possible clockwise until the tab is seated in the notch. You will feel it click into place. Then just reinsert the cap and hoses / clamps .
Took me 15 minutes without having to remove anything other than the two hoses attached to the manifold cover.
i dont really know but my guess is you go to the library and look at some language books and learn the words so then you can understsnd and go to settings and press language then press english
Sounds like maybe a blown head gasket. See if there is antifreeze in the oil/ white smoke out the exhaust?
How do you replace the cabin air filter on a 2003 Mazda 6?
It's really easy...if it's just like my '06. Open your glovebox. Take all the stuff out. On the right side, there's a mini-bungee strap holding it on. Unhook it, but gently so that it doesn't spring into the compartment and you have to hunt for it later. Squeeze both sides of the glovebox to free the "plugs" that hold it in place. You can unhook the glovebox completely, or let it hang in your way. Look in the compartment - the largest black plastic panel is the cover for the filter. It releases by the two bottom tabs - pull both towards you at the same time. You'll have to squeeze the filter just a bit to get it out around the support bracket that's inconveniently in the way. Squeeze and slide the new filter in, and don't forget to grab the bungee strap before you squeeze the glovebox back in place.
