Reviews of OEM Mazda parts For Business

Oem. The head gasket is way stronger than the rods and transmission.

The Mazda OEM head gasket is strong enough to reliably handle boost. Unless you're making crazy high power, you don't need the upgrade.

I run 5w-40 in everything. Mazda Skyactiv, Toyota 3UR, Honda J35. They all like it and run quiet.

I was quoted 1200 to change my brake pads on my ND. Did it myself of course but it was funny to find out what the dealership wanted.

That’s Switzerland right? Because I was quoted 1600€ when my fuel pump broke in Switzerland. We let the car out of the Mazda dealership and got back with a friend a couple of days after. 15’ minutes of work to change it with a high flow one and lots of laughs while the dealership mechanics where looking at us. 200€ brand new…

I bought a Mazda CX-5 dealer test car with 300 Km's on it back in 2015 when I moved up to Osaka. I drive a LOT and was getting the oil changed roughly every 5000 km's per Mazda's recommendation.

For the record, this is NOT the exact replacement to Mazda 0W-20 GF-5 with Moly - Synthetic Engine Oil.

While this has high molybdenum, it's still a different formula from Mazda's own proprietary blend.

I drive a Mazda2. The sheer joy of having those big "trucks" behind me at night is amazing. I need sunglasses at 8pm because those fuckers are brighter than the sun. Cop it in the side mirrors and the rear view mirror.

OCV gasket oil leaks on my 2014 Mazda6 SkyActiv valve cover.

I put OEM Brakes on my ‘19 3 GT AWD. I’m 20K KM into them, and they pulse like mad when I brake above 90KM/h. Absolute fucking trash. The factory brakes also did this, above 90KM, but started around 50K into their life.
