I have a 2015 Tacoma 4-cylinder stick shift 52,000 mi. I bought it new. The only maintenance I had to do was oil changes and I go underneath with a grease gun and grease all the fittings along the axle.
Just got the oil lab report back from the sample taken during the oil change I did at 15K miles. The previous oil change at 10K was performed by the dealership. So that means that whatever the Toyota dealership put in there at 10K, was not OEM Toyota oil.
No, but I did keep 2 quarts of oil and a gallon jug of water. My Mazda Protege was notorious for burning oil and overheating
I bought a 2008 toyota yaris for $5.5k on fb marketplace. Had a prepurchase inspection.\n\nI love that car for the exact reasons you mentioned. It\u2019s been with me everywhere ive gone, is super cheap on gas, and just requires oil changes every 8000 km.
I prefer synthetic myself in my CX50 Turbo, but Mazda engines aren't very picky overall.
Always have done 10k on my ‘22 RAV4 hybrid, which equates to every five or six months (did the same on my ‘16 RAV4 hybrid as well), and do the same on my ‘12 Prius C I’ve had for 11 years now. No issues.
Stick to the 0w20 and 10,000 changes. My car has over 235,000 and uses zero oil between changes.
5k or 6 months just like a new one. use the recomended toyota/lexus brand oil.
zu viel Kurzstrecke. mach mal nen Ölwechsel und lass den wagen dann mal richtig auf Temperatur kommen.
they only say you can do that with their Mazda-branded oil. That stuff tends to be expensive.
