I just changed the spark plugs for the first time in like 175, 000 miles
Mazda parts reviews
But then we replaced it with a SkyActiv Mazda3 that used 0w20 and proceeded to have a good long history with that motor that had 0 oil consumption in 125K miles; I did all of the oil changes myself and it was always 4.5qts in/4.5qts out every 5k miles.
I had the road control 2 all seasons on my cx5 and was averaging 27-28 mpg. I put the defender 2 on, averaging 30-32 mpg now. Check it at the pump to compare with the computer and the vehicle was off 0.5 mpg.
Just OEM's replaced on time, car runs like a champ and sees track days regularly
I've been using Mobil 1 0w30 in my NA 2018 CX5 for 180,000 miles , no issues and runs quieter than 0w20 .
I recently replaced using NGK. Solved my random miss holding at 5k. I'm pleased with them. Not lacking anything. It added some pep to my step, for sure.
I like the Continental kit (sometimes called Conti-tech, which I *think* is the same thing). I have not encountered any issues with this kit and have used it to replace TB/WP on four NAs so far. I just bought one that will be going into my NB soon.
I’ve always worked on Miata’s, but I’ve never used anything other than gates timing belt and water pumps. Only time I’ve had a gates timing belt fail on me was due to my own fault in which the belt was rubbing on the timing covers until it got caught and ripped a chunk out of it. Even without that chunk it still ran and drove fine while revving the engine 1000rpms past its intended revlimiter.
Thermostat failed multiple times
Don't replace with the toyo, they're crap.
