noname Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 These cars are known for a leaking LF axle seal on the 6F35 automatics, the fix being a kit that includes a new axle, seal and bushing. Mine's a 2.5L with the Mazda G6M 6-speed manual, and unfortunately, there's not much information available on them. From looking around on the internet and RockAuto, I believe the Motorcraft# for the axle kit on the 2.5L automatic is TX-683? Can anyone confirm that it's the same for the manual G6M? Also, neither the owners manual nor the dealership tech manuals list a fluid capacity for the G6M. Could someone verify if 5.9 qts of XTM5QS is correct?

WKelley Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 Looking on RockAuto I don't even see c/v axle seal. I also have the 6sp manual, parts are very expensive and very hard to find. I had to pay $450 for the speedo sensor. I used just over 3 liters to refill my transmission. I cannot find any part number for the axle seal, try going to Ford and have them run your VIN, they should at least have a part # although I would not be surprised if it's near impossible to get. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noname Posted July 19, 2023 Author Share Posted July 19, 2023 Thanks for the info regarding the fluid. I called the dealership last week, providing the last 8 digits of the VIN. The bushing and seal are no longer available separate, and the parts rep told me the axle kit was obsolete. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
