Oh yeah, Ash8 posts a lot of TSB’s and other helpful information, seems like he has some insider knowledge or something, plus he gets highly defensive when others bad mouth Mazda. I have read on that forum that the vast majority of issues are fixed in newer production models, but some people just don’t seem to be satisfied with the newer models, for whatever reason. I mean I just read a thread the other day about people finding rattling sounds from the boot, caused by 4 or 5 different things. Humanity is only humanity when all are treated the same regardless of their skin tone, religious beliefs and geography!
I never heard any rattles in the boot but, thats not to say others don’t! Like any mass produced car our going to get niggles that perhaps others of the same car don’t. As for me I don’t like spending a high amount of money for AP on the scheme plus sacrified benifits, so if I do go ahead and order oneikely, it will be more than likely the exclusive model with the two packs as per a previous comment.
I thing the rattle you mention come from the tailgate as if something has worked loose, not fitted properly or a foreign object of some form.
