For [Naturally-Aspirated Skyactiv engines](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SkyActiv), it is highly recommended that you use Mazda's own(Idemitsu) high molly GF-5 0w-20. [Arguably it is one of the best oil for skyactiv engines](http://www.cleanmpg.com/community/index.php?threads/45295/#post-357910).
Reviews of OEM Mazda parts For Business

i replaced the cabin air filter on my 2016 mazda3 for ~$10, took me only a few minutes.
My Mazda 323 Astina 2001 is on 260k and hasn't had a timing belt replacement ever.
2014 3, 0W-20 full synthetic (whatever major brand is cheapest) from brand new, every 7500 miles.
170k, runs like a top, burns not a single drop between changes, compression and fuel mileage exactly the same as new.
Like only had to replace the rear brake calipers after the parking brake mechanism was getting hung up.
I had the same issue with a 2016 CX5. Dealer overfilled the oil. Drove home20 minutes at 30-40 mph with no problems. The next morning my wife got on the highway and the dash lit up like a christmas tree. Smoke from the exhaust and oil residue from the tailpipes and on the rear hatch. Let the car sit for about an hour and drove back to dealership at low speed. They drained and changed the plugs. Still have the vehicle. No lasting effects on the engine. It does need a converter.
first issue I had was the battery at around 2000 miles, it was replaced under warranty.
Had the same problem in my '95 miata OEM radiator. The discoloration is a sign the plastic is deteriorating.
Similar thing happened to me today, vehicle is 2023 cx-50, 25k mile, not even 2 year, in upstate ny with weekly car wash, gentle on gas and brake. They said front pads are 30%, rear pads are 50%, quoted me $600 to get new front pad & rotor, and rear brake service(cleaning, lubrication). Just 2 month ago from another mechanic's report (same delear), all pads are above 50%. I don't think it's that bad that both pad and rotor need to be replaced, so I denied the work,
Yep. 22 turbo already has a chip. I bought the dent and windshield repair coverage. Will be calling them soon.
