$186 is what Mazda says the MSRP should be. $112 is what the part costs the dealer to buy it from Mazda
Mazda Parts you can get cheaper than at the dealer thread

OEM = NGK. NGK's part number is printed right on the box.
The only thing that is different is the Mazda branded paperboard box and the price.
I have an idea why.

There’s a fixed formula to calculate the price structure on automobile parts by the manufacture. IMO a car company won’t just increase the profit margin dramatically ONLY on spark plugs and belt tensioner but not on all other parts such as OEM oil filters and air filters. That’s why I believe there’s something more to the OEM spark plugs and belt tensioner which only Mazda knows, although the NGK and INA are selling the “compatible” aftermarket parts for much lower price.
That’s why I’m anxious to find out who made the OEM “Value” spark plugs where the price is compatible to aftermarket spark plugs.

@Chocolate maybe you should edit the OP to include a list of parts/links at the very top of the thread, so that people don't have to scroll through the whole thing to find what's been posted.
Currently using the NKG plugs, INA tensioner, and the OEM oil control valve from partsouq in our CX5.

CX-5 General knowledge and information sharing
A simple document that attempts to capture the common parts and pieces used by the CX-5 community into a single place for easier reference. Post and discussion can be found...
I posted this resource in another thread recently.. this general knowledge document already has a lot of information logged in it. It would be much more useful if users just updated this document and used it as the main reference.

It would nice if it could be a 'sticky' so it is easier to find.CX-5 General knowledge and information sharing

But if the actual manufacturer part number is exactly the same, it is the same part.
Why would NGK sell two different units using the same part number.

Some good info there, but it's view only and the person with access hasn't posted in a year and half. So I or anyone else on the forum can't add any part numbers or anything.
But you can right here.

You can also post any updates or parts not listed in the document, into that thread. Makes a lot more sense to have the document and posts related to that document in the same thread, rather than having that existing document and thread, and then having this one, which is attempting to do the same thing. It's more efficient to use what we already have instead of trying to start something new, which will inevitably result in a lot of redundant info that's already been covered in the resource thread.

It is.. kind of. There is a sticky that directs you to Mazda CX-5 Resources, where we list links to important CX-5 related information (primarily DIYs and how-to guides, but also things like the General Knowledge and Information sharing document as well). This is a fairly new "feature" that was only implemented when the new forum software was rolled out, so it can be easy to miss for a lot of users, but that it why I try to remind others that its there for us to build upon and use.
Much of the appeal of the online forum experience is being able to search and reference older information and consolidate it to make it more accessible.
At the dealer website under the "specials" or "service" tab. They're not always available.Where do you get this coupon for parts? Is it from Mazda or dealer-specific? (not talking about the online dealer web stores)
I have found only for accessories
Amazon and ebay prices seem more expensive lately
Just a note, I have purchased "inexpensive" Amazon NGK plugs and after receiving them I googled the topic of counterfeit plugs, upon very close examination, I realized they were indeed counterfeit. I now buy Denso and NGK products from Rock Auto only.
I believe if you go to NGK's site Advance Auto is an authorized dealer. If you go to AA website they will match Rock Auto's price if you chat with their customer service. I did this recently and then picked the plugs up at my local AA store.

And saved the expensive shipping by Rock Auto (but added the sales tax ⋯).
I'm still running maps from 2019. Newly ordered Speed Test cards will have maps from 2022, that's new enough.

How and when would a person know when this part requires replacement?
