Mazda Australia has issued a recall of over 35,000 cars.
The car brand is recalling models of the Mazda3, 6 and CX-5 that could result in engine failure. https://7news.com.au/news/consumer-p...-cx-5-c-498985 |

Everyone I know who drives diesels always complain about the particulate filters blocking up.

Guy I know just spent $7k getting the DPF fixed on his Navara.
Once diesels became mainstream they lost their reliability and longevity which they once had.
