Mazda parts reviews

I installed Koni orange shocks (and most importantly new bump stops) last year and absolutely love them. I didn’t want a crazy firm ride, or to mess with adjustable shocks, so they were the best option for me.

I also swapped the stock tires for A/T tires, mostly for the looks, but they actually helped in sand and rough surfaces.

I use 5w-30 Valvoline Restore & Protect, I’m from the SoCal low desert region. Never had an issue, changed every 5,000 miles (nearly once a months cause I commute so much for work).

They are bloomin expensive to replace! They are far tougher than the stock NC1 sport wheels which can be bent in a pot hole fairly easily.

They are pretty close to the stock shocks, just like 10/15% stiffer.. I honestly ride speed bumps much faster in the 8 (regular 18" on non XL Michelin PS4) than with a 2024 Yaris with 16" lol.

I have these same wheels. I love the look of them except it wish they were wider (8 in at least but 9 in would be perfect)

I personally am changing my own oil with full synthetic on my 23 2.5T every 6000 km or so. No need other than peace of mind for me. Doing it myself only takes 30 minutes and $35 in oil, filter and crush washer.

We bought a 2015 Mazda CX-5 that has 155K miles on it. Plugs never changed by prior owner. It was giving us **26 MPG**. The engine was rough at idle. So I read and read about Spark Plugs and purchased NGK LKAR7AHX-S Spark Plug NGK Ruthenium HX Spark Plug that this is better then the OEM ILKAR7L11. So we installed the HX, we noticed the engine smoother but the MPG dropped down to **24 MPG consistently.

They use some crap Panasonic battery.

Just had to replaced my battery in my 2022 Mazda 3. I’ve always heard people say the batteries are crap in these cars. There’s no way you should be replacing a OEM battery yet. They use some crap Panasonic battery.
