Question 1

What should I check on a used manual Mazda?

Accepted Answer

The clutch bite point and any notchy or crunching shifts when the gearbox is cold. On a diesel CX-5 or Mazda6, listen for rattles at idle, which can point to a worn dual-mass flywheel.

Question 2

Is a manual Mazda cheaper to tax in Luxembourg than an automatic?

Accepted Answer

Only where its official CO₂ figure is lower, since the road tax follows CO₂ and fuel, not the gearbox. Compare the figures of the two versions of the same engine before choosing.

Question 3

Which used Mazda models are automatic only?

Accepted Answer

The CX-60, the CX-80 and the electric MX-30 have no manual version. Most other Mazdas, from the Mazda2 to the CX-5, were offered with either gearbox.

Question 4

Can you still buy a new Mazda with a manual gearbox?

Accepted Answer

Yes: the Mazda3 hatchback and saloon and the CX-30 come with a six-speed manual on both the 140 PS e-Skyactiv G and the 186 PS e-Skyactiv X, the CX-30 X also with all-wheel drive. The 136 PS MX-5 is manual only.
