Mazda 3 parts reviews

At around 120,000 KM plan for spark plugs. It's easy, especially if you get a 1/4" torque wrench and 14mm 1/4 deep well socket.

2021 Mazda 3 same original set of brakes at 30K miles.

Mine has had Mobil 1 Extended Performance 0w20 its entire life (aside from the factory fill) and I've had exactly zero oil consumption or lubrication related issues. It still gets nearly the same fuel economy and is as responsive and smooth as when I bought it, no matter if it's blasting up a steep mountain or baking in the heat of summer traffic.

I know others recommend just replacing the inserts, but I went with Bosch Icons and couldn\u2019t be happier. Very easy install, I live in the PNW so they get used quite a bit. Overall I\u2019m very happy with them.

I've just bought the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 for my car (Mazda 3 2.0 186hp). I live in south of Germany where there isn't much snow and the temperatures are mostly around -5 to 10C from December to March. The summer tyres I've got with the car (Toyo Proxes R51A) are actually worse on wet than most premium all seasons (at least according to the label), so I'm losing "just" some of the dry grip in the summer. I drive only like 6-7k km/year. For now they feel surprisingly good (around 5-10C outside) especially in wet - actually not much different than the UHP Hankook summer tyres I had on my previous car (were probably a complete overkill for the car).

Your 2013 ford escape is actually built on the same platform as a 2013 cx-5, different engine though. Earlier ford models would actually use Mazdas engines like the escort, focus, and fusion. Mazda and ford had a long partnership that ended around 2013 and since then Mazdas quality and reliability has steadily increased. For the price ranges they are solid cars, I think the mazda3 shines here, it’s pretty competitive and affordable in its class. Also one of the few eco cars that has a real automatic. They don’t have any major issues, my 21 3 has been solid. It needed the thermostat replaced, but Mazda covered me since they have a lengthy extended warranty for that specific part.

Me and my parents both had DWS06's on our 2016/2020 Mazda3's, respectively. They wore out way too early and one of my parents' tires had some really random tire construction-related problem that led them to replacing the Contis with the PSAS4s. They've been happy with those tires so far, I think they're a bit noisy and ride a bit stiff but response and grip-wise they're stellar.

I just did my rear brakes! I forgot to plug one of the caliper motors back in. And tried to take it out of maintenance mode, it freaked out. But luckily it was fine after I reconnected the caliper.

I couldn't recommend moog..... Unless you are going to sell the car in 5000 miles.

These are excellent cars but for some reason the batteries they use are bad. I had a 21 Mazda 3. The battery failed in 2023. They replaced it under warranty. The new battery lasted literally less than 6 months.
