05 MAZDA6 SEDAN, My car wanders to the right slighty when you take your hands off the wheel. So far the tires have been balanced, rotated, allignment has been done and also a right upper control arm has been replaced. The car still wanders. The Service Manager and dealership dont know whats wrong. Please any imput would be appreciated.

 

I am having the same problem with mine. Has taken 5 trips to the dealer. Try mentioning a "cradle" adjustment, my dealership had to have a "mazda engineer" come fix my car.

 

Also check your tire pressures.

 

if not cradle/ k-member , try adjusting the caster / camber / toe-in , out

 

I have the same problem for the last couple months. It was re-aligned but it still drifts left. I am about to put more air into my tires but it still won't help like usual. I am going to have them re-align it one last time monday and check to see if anything else can be fixed to prevent the drifting right.

 

Mine pulls left, was told it was tire pressure and rotation. Still pulls. My dealer kept telling me that mazda only cover allignment up to 12k miles / 1yr.

 

I spoke with mazda again today seeing as my car has been with them a week on tuesday, they have already checked the cross member and cradle it still is not fixed.

isn't it normal for ALL cars to wander to the right SLIGHTLY?.....so that if the drivers falls asleep he will run off to the side of the road rather than wonder right onto oncoming traffic?

NEW MAZDA 6 v6 SPORT OWNER (manual)!!!!

p.s. and how should i break in my car. it alrady has 1100km. I have been babing it in regards to RPM'S (not going over 3000pms for first 800km)and also reving it up to 5000rpms more often after 800kms.

 

HAHA i have the EXACT same problem with my 06 i sport (manual).

mine actually pulls quite strongly to the right. but only from around 3-10mph. other speeds, thers no wandering.

has anyone actually had this problem FIXED by mazda ( so i can decide if its worth making a trip to the dealer )

 

break-in for me was no revving past 3200rpm for the first 600 miles. nothing past 70mph. dont lug the engine. no excessive idling

im only 17. so it was REALLY tough keepin revs that low. but i managed. [8D]
