Im late to this but ill chime in anyways.

Mine is a 2008 AWD GT with every option. Mileage is 130k. And I run on Regular gas.

By todays standards its a gas guzzler, and even thirsty in 2008, but CRVs werent hugely better.

Ive done nothing to it. Still on original brake pads. And recently replaced the rear wheel bearings.

I dont know why im so lucky except that i do oil changes frequently.

One thing about driving older cars is they arent narcing your driving habits to Mazda. Good to know about insurance.

Since it is top line, it has the Bose system which is decent, but i replaced the head so i could get Bluetooth.

I sincerely believe this car has at least 5 years life left in it.

Pros: reliable, long lasting
Cons: gas guzzler
Vehicle: Mazda
Mileage: 130000 km

Changed the pads front and rear was super easy and straight forward.Then after taking the car out of 'electric brake service mode' and starting the car I get the a yellow check engine light and code C05AB, clearing it made no difference. Only thing I could find online was "The electronically controlled brake unit detects that the pressure feed valve (primary side) is stuck ON (OPEN)."

Pros: easy installation, straightforward
Cons: check engine light, code C05AB
Vehicle: Mazda 3

i remember hearing a guy complain about his cx5 eating through brakes, but the cx5 is the same car as my mazda3, and my mazda3 has seen 70,000km for its rear brake pad/ 90,000km for the fronts, and I drive a mix of city/highway.

Pros: 70,000km rear brake pad
Cons: cx5 eating through brakes

Mileage: 70000 km

I've been replacing the brakes on my 2019 since it hit about 25k or so, rear have been done twice (I'm at 62k now and just did them the second time) and the front were done around 30k. My dealership outright told me Mazda brakes are garbage and these vehicles are not made for Canadian winters (regardless of what their advertising says). This new set is aftermarket so hopefully better but seriously my brakes have been so corroded it's unbelievable.

Cons: corroded brakes, garbage
Vehicle: Mazda
Mileage: 62000 km

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.

Cons: pulsating brakes, poor quality
