Mazda 2.0 Petrol engine help..

My brother has a Mazda5 2.0 Petrol, on an 06 plate.

Its covered 100k with FSH.

He has told me it has gradually started taking longer to start in the mornings.

It has a new battery,

Forums are useless for Mazdas-

I read coil packs, But after speaking to Mazda Newport, they have not had a 2.0 needing new Coil packs in years..

Any advice will be appreciated.

The Mazda 6 MPS and 3 MPS have a brilliant forum. Try there:

What's its service history like? I'd suggest you do the cheap stuff like fuel/air filter and spark plugs.

What are the coils like on those; are they per cylinder?
