Mazda 3 parts reviews

Pirelli is now Chinese owned, so I will never buy another set of them. I put Goodyear on my 3 and couldn't be happier with my choice.

Crossclimate 2 tires are still the best performing all weather/all season tires in the snow. I advised my dad to buy a pair and he is extremely happy with that decision. He is driving a 2017 mazda 3.

My Mazda3 OEM tires were BRIDGESTONE

TURANZA EL440, and they worked amazingly and lasted for a full 50k miles.

So far I love these new Continentals.

Eu am pus asa pe 18 si am prins uscat si umed momentan, o sa vad la iarna.

Nu mi s-au parut zgomotoase si nici la consum n-am observat vreo diferenta.

I personally do an old and filter every 6-7000 km. I do it so frequently because, 1) I do it myself, so cost is down and I make sure the job is done right. 2) the sky active engines are known for carbon buildup, so more frequent oil changes should help. 3) Longevity, I want to see 300,000 or more on the dash one day.

An oil change with decent full synthetic is 30-40$ for 5 quarts + OEM filter for another 5-10$. It's relatively cheap to do every 6-8 months to know it always has decent oil, and no problems should arise.

oem brake pads are ceramic (low noise, low dust, minimal rotor wear, less bite)

Battery died less than 12000 miles. Apparently Mazda is using cheap batteries, as this seems to be a common issue. But I still see others complain about the same thing.

I noticed my M3 HB 1.5l 2020 (second hand) has rear ATE brakes. The car has 29k km on the clock and at 10km/h I can hear intermittent squeaks from what I'd assume are the brakes which sounds like there's some contact between the rotor and pads at specific point and only seems to happen when the brakes are warmer so no idea what's going on there.
