2004 Mazda 6 Service and Repair Manual
Regular price
$29.99 USD
Unit price
Fitment for the 2004 Mazda 6 is the starting point here: this manual is matched to that exact year, engine and trim, so the clearances, torque values and service sequences it gives are the ones Mazda published for this car rather than figures carried over from an adjacent model year or from the other engine in the range, since the 2.3L four and the 3.0L V6 (VIN D, AJ) are specified separately.
Engines covered
- 2.3L inline-four — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline
- 3.0L V6 (181 cu in) — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline
Body styles covered
- 4-door hatchback
- 4-door sedan
- 5-door wagon
Trims covered
- i
- S
Known issues on the 2004 Mazda 6. No recalls are on federal record for the 2004 Mazda 6, and no owner complaints are logged for the year either. That leaves ordinary diagnosis and scheduled maintenance as the work, and the factory procedures behind it are here.
With nothing flagged on the federal record, the value is having Mazda's own specifications and sequences to hand for whichever of the two engines is in the car, instead of a generic figure.
Mazda North America Operations (Mazda) is recalling certain 2003-2008 Mazda6, 2006-2007 Mazdaspeed6 and 2004 MPV vehicles nationwide. Mazda is also recalling 2005-2006 MPV vehicles in Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Delaware, the District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, West Virginia, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands (Saipan), and the U.S. Virgin Islands. On July 9, 2019 this recall was expanded to include certain 2004-2011 RX-8 vehicles that were previously recalled under 16V-354 but have not yet been repaired. These vehicles are equipped with certain air bag inflators assembled as part of the passenger frontal air bag modules, and used as original equipment or replacement equipment. In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the passenger frontal air bag, these passenger air bag inflators may explode due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to absolute humidity and temperature cycling.
Consequence
An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death.
Remedy
Owners are advised not to drive their vehicles until the remedy is performed. Mazda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front passenger air bag inflator with an alternate inflator, free of charge. The recall began July 6, 2018. Mailing to the affected RX-8 owners began July 6, 2019. Owners may contact Mazda customer service at 1-800-222-5500, option 4. Mazda's number for this recall is 2618F. Note: With the addition of the RX-8 vehicles, this recall fully supersedes recall 16V354.
Mazda North American Operations (Mazda) is recalling certain 2003-2008 Mazda6, 2004-2005 MPV, 2004 RX-8, and 2006-2007 Mazdaspeed6 vehicles.

Remedy
Owners are advised not to drive their vehicles until the remedy is performed.
