Re: 1st service ??

Where do you live?? The dealerships like you to do oil changes at 3500.. more $$ for them..

Mazda reccomends 7500 in normal conditions, or 5000 in hard conditions.

Dealers also like to add some kind of fuel conditioner..

I think most long time rotary owners will agree every 3k is best.
