Does the Mazda 6 suffer from DPF problems?
I am thinking of purchasing a five year old Mazda 6 2.2 diesel. I've identified a few for £7000 that have around 70,000 miles on the clock. Would you count these cars as good buys? I'm a little bit confused to if this model suffers from the dreaded PDF issues. Does it?

See the entry in www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar They are more prone than most to DPF problems and problems caused by the DPF regeneration system.
