OUTLINE OF CONSTRUCTIONA6E660201036201•The construction and operation of the steering system is essentially carried over from that of the current
Mazda6 (GG), except for the following features. (See Mazda6 Training Manual 3359-1*-02C.)
• Due to the addition of the MZR-CD (RF Turbo) engine, a gear-driven power steering oil pump has been
adopted. The operation of the oil pump is the same as that of the current Mazda6 (GG).
• The disassembly/assembly procedures for the steering gear and linkage of the newly equipped MZR-CD (RF
Turbo) engine, wagon and 4WD models are the same as that of the current Mazda6 (GG).
