Your owners manual has a neat little chart in it that explains the recommended maintenance at specific intervals.

^ yeah, but good luck actually getting your dealer to do half the stuff it calls for.

i thought the tranny oil gets swapped out at 30k?

i called 2 dealers in my area one was mazda dealer in fairhaven, MA called O'hare mazda the other was in middletown, RI and i got two completely different answers...one quoted me at 250$ or 450$ the Ohare quoted me at $650....they are both retarded when it came to answering my questions about maintenance but i think im going to take the advice of the owners manual....Dont you think all dealers should have the same price quotes...i think its ridiculous that i get completely different quotes everytime i need something done...we need to get a petition letter and have it signed by everyone and send this to Mazda this shit is ridiculous

It is all based on which interval maintenance chart you look at in the owner's manual (I think there are two or three differet charts). I am almost ready to hit 30K, and I will be changing the tranny oil and rear differential for a fraction of the cost of what a dealer would charge, and based on the diy sections on this site, it seems pretty simple to do.

Im going to do all myself.
I think the most expensive stuff would be the belts. Rest of the stuff comes in like what 3-4 bux each ? |
how do you do it all yourself?
