    Mazda 2/Demio Fuel Economy Thread

    I log 0.7L an hour idle usually.. AC raises it to 1.2L But then, it's summertime now and I don't idle a lot in the warm months. Make me do the math.. Puuuu 29.52 mpg, I'm guestimating US gallons? That's about what epa gives for city mileage.... It's that 75 and 80 mph that hurt... This...

    Mazda2 reliability - better info

    15k since I took possession of my 2011m2, oil pan gasket and pressure sender started leaking oil, serpentine belt needs changing. Other than that, solid little car. (bleeding has been fixed, belt still needs replacement) Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

    New Mazda Miata Coupe

    Seen a few writeups on that one today.. Word is that Mazda has retuned the suspension to compensate for the extra weight.. So it should still handle like a Miata. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

    Front/Rear Brake Change?

    I've had that issue before.. Needed to pull the drum to replace a broken lug stud. Tapped with a hammer, nudges twisted and poked at it for 20 minutes before I realized I had the parking brake set. (engages the rear brakes)... So, laughing at myself reached into the car to release the park...

    54 months of ownership, 3rd car wash

    We can get by with a quick spray wash weekly/monthly (depending on time of year), and only do a full hand wash like this one every year or so... Too bad many municipalities here frown on hand washing on the streets/driveways... Soaps, solvents, and the like entering the storm drain system...

    Winter's tough on the 2

    I lose about 3mpg just switching my tyres for winter... Not counting the additional idle time (with ac running) to keep the insides of the windows from frosting over... Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

    Just ordered a new Mazda2

    Is the yaris going to be a rebadged 2? I knew the scion was (with a Toyota/scion nose) I've heard the scion has a 6 speed manual, wonder how compatible it might be with our existing 2's... Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

    What did you do to your Mazda2 today?

    Didn't do anything too exciting, gave my 2 a winter bath last night. Oil change tonight. Will look at Mount points to try and fabricate a belly pan for it. Oh, and I had to bump start the car in reverse last night too... Turned the car off at the bath house, waited for the bay to empty...
