Mazda recommends their oem filters on skyactive motors. Its because they dont have the flaps that keeps oil pressurized. Any wisdom says you dont need it but go ahead and buy them online as I paid $5 per.
In terms of filter and oil, I have an NA and I personally like to buy the OE filters from Mazda and for oil I just use the oil recommended in the owners manual, id assume the ND uses different oil so I’d say just check that.
For Naturally-Aspirated Skyactiv engines, it is highly recommended that you use Mazda's own(Idemitsu) high molly GF-5 0w-20. Arguably it is one of the best oil for skyactiv engines.
I got Mazda 2 2013 and just had a replacement for both front brake pads and discs - $330 for the parts. $120 for labour.
Ik was ook 1000,- kwijt bij de mazda dealer (mazda 3, C segment net als Astra)
Daarin zat: beurt (olie, oliefilter, interieurfilter, inspectie), ruitenwisserbladen, remschijven + blokken voor, apk
Many reputable rotary shops have tested numerous oils over the years, and agreed that the bearings do not have adequate protection with 5w-20 or 5w-30, especially if you track the car or do any spirited driving regularly.
safelite replaced the windshield with OEM one , but at the time of delivery i saw a scratch at the bottom, they tried to clean, scrub it , but no success. At last they asked me to come next week as it had to be replaced again.
At around 121k the high pressure fuel pump died. It was replaced, but every now and then my 3 really hesitates to start, so I feel like there's some lingering issue.
Cylinder head ended up cracked and needing replaced for $4500.
I was actually happy that it’s not an OEM windshield because mine cracked hella easy and a bunch of people had issues with warping, so I don’t think quality was there to begin with.
