Looking at purchasing a Mazda Premacy either 2009, 2010 or 2011. Test drove a 2009 that was tiptronic with paddle shift, engine was a mzr 2.0 disi (which all years seem to be) We are seeing another one that is tiptronic without the paddleshift. I read on here there were some engine types to be wary of but not sure if this one is that.

Hi there,
The only engine I know to have a few issues is the turbo petrol 2.3ltr but the Premacy didn't have this engine option. You might find that the same transmission is also used but depending on spec level whether it has paddle shift or not. These cars are Japanese imports and so there is not really much information available about the car.
