Just had my first service and have had all of the little bits added.

If you had mixed feelings about the front door handle bezels in piano black - get them, they look great!

Had a couple of minor issues, creaking from the "b-pillar" area was caused by a lack of grease on the striker plates ... fixed! Plus a couple of questions I had about noises a rotary makes - it's my first

On the topic of oil, I just gave them a 5 litre container and they filled it up.

From the outside, the fender strakes really catch the eye. I got the scuff plates and they take a lot of the "plastic feel" away and getting into the car feels more classy.

Last but not least - the rotor valve caps increse rear wheel horsepower by 15% ... :D :D :D

 

Pictures are mandatory for this thread Please?!

What did they charge you for the oil?

 

OK - but daylight will have to strike!

$32 for hte oil for the oil change and another $32 for a 5 litre container full. (Which I thought was very reasonable!)

 

Not bad... did you find out what oil it was?

 

The guy said it's a 5w-30 mineral castrol - NON magnatec and that there will be a retail pack very soon.

(This is Brookvale Mazda on Sydney's northern beaches)

Looking at it, it looks like oil to me - but if anyone's really clever and can do analysis on it, I'd be happy to send some of it to them:D

 

Thanks Kev.

Send me a litre and I'll put it in my rotary analyser :p

Edit: I've sent an enquiry via the castrol.com.au web site. Will post any info I get.

 

A picture of high quality paving ... and scuff plates.

I'll post some better pictures of all the little bits when I learn to drive my camera.

 

Looks good... I like the finish around the U bolt.. tidies it up nicely. Mats look good with the red logo and red leather.
