Strobe - many thanks for the warning.

For the benefit of any Mazda drivers, can you tell us if this applies to all Mazda engines, both petrol and diesel?

Too Late

You should get a job at Mazda, as you have the right approach. if they had done what you have done it would have saved (what seems) a lot of heart ach for a lot of Mazda Deisel owners including me.

Everytime I go passed a 2010-12 plate Mazda 6/7 I feel like knocking on the window and telling them. As Mazda Dealers aren't. This is discraceful.

Like most "normal" :-) folk we dont live on forums reading posts. If I had I would have seen you post. and reacted imidiately.

I wish I had read your post, although I didnt have the warning light your comments would have made me aware of the risk, I hadnt and now paying the price with a 45k miles CX7 yes 45k miles, car full D/S/H and a knackered 2.2d engine thats just been quoted just shy of £10k (list) to replace. An isnsulting 60% offer from Mazda..... Looking at your post date 2010 (assuming this is correct) Mazda have known of theis is issue for years and have the heads ion the sand or so calous they see a potential profit out of misfortuned owners like me.

Appauling... Thank you for the warning and I hope your kind warning gets to others before the dreaded happens as it sure will.

Its caused by leaking injector seals, if if you have a blocked sump strainer then get the injector seals replaced as it will just happen again, it;s a major design fault by mazda, i've just done a blocked strainer on my parenrts mazda 3 2009 2.2 and all 4 injectors were leaking.

to be honest guys this seems to be a problem right across the mazda diesel range, the best move is to do what I did and fit a dashboard oil pressure gauge, at least this way you can keep on top of your pressure if the pressure gets lower after x amount on weeks,months etc this will tell you injector seals are leaking again and sump strainer is getting clogged again, better to have a constant reading while your on the road and get it sorted before the pressure drops to dangous levels then you total your engine
