- 2013 Mazda CX-5
195,000 here
Well don't need to do 2 or 3 sets at 60k+ if doing 1 set say every 30k-ish.
Yeah I think I'll do 40k.1 set every 35-40k miles is my current procedure.
Remember that one*sigh* I still haven't done the trans drain and fill. Still have 12 quarts sitting in the box in the garage.
On a positive note, I just got back my first Blackstone UOA from the last oil change at ~92K miles. Just over 6K on the Mazda Moly oil. Blackstone said everything looked great, other than iron being a little high which is indicative of long periods of idling. Which is true because my wife idles the car for around an hour or more each day in the school pickup line. (eek2)(headshake They said TBN showed plenty of additives left, and recommended going 8K miles on my next interval! (thumb)
204,000 miles- replaced another wheel bearing.
Sometimes the infotainment system acts up and "play album" commands turn off the screen. That always goes away when I shut the car off got bit and restart.
I'm getting my oil changed every 4000 miles or so and I'm finding I'm about a quart low. I'm just going to the local valvoline and having them change it... I'm aware of the OEM filter being different than whatever valvoline is probably using- I'm not aware that it's a big enough issue for me.
No noticeable changes from when I got the car at 184,000. Took it for an 8-hour drive the other day to buy a POS vintage mountain bike... no complaints. Nice and quiet with that new bearing.
151k, replaced the rod end bearings after that incident a few weeks ago. Just back today after driving 1000mi from san antonio tx to Atlanta ga for a weeks stay. No problems and topped out a few times. The new drilled/slotted rotors are the s***. Much better performance than any of the oem or oem type replacements ive used prior. They do make a flicking noise (like thumbing card deck) at low speed but it's hard to hear unless the window is open and near an wall or something. But apparently that's common for any drill/slotted rotor.
Just hit 70K km, had the auto-trany replaced under warranty. Not a failure per say, but it developed an "abnormal" noise - basically whenever I'd be coasting at low speed on a parking lot or coming to a stop - there would be a grinding noise. I'd suspect one of the main bearings, but apparently Mazda doesn't open these up - just swap for a new one.
A real bummer considering how much time and money I'm investing in preventive maintenance.
I'm also suspecting that the old trainy simply couldn't take all the hate waves I was sending here way... The more I own the CX-5, the more I hate how the auto-tranny shifts. The one who programmed it - definitely was some very special kind of retard and only had soccer moms and old geezer as target audience in mind.

Eh? Mines extremely peppy.

Do the old and the new shift the same?
