mazda voiding warranties for using syn?
|
why? why would you do this? why?
|
hey....I don't like the looks of that tag. do you?
|
You do realize there is only one place this thread can go, right?
|
Not another one :): Wait till the New Year....we have hit our 06 quota for Syn VS Dino oils.......
|
It doesn't really matter what type of oil you use... do a search there are hundreds of threads about this... RotaryGod broke it down for us really welll....
|
I say screw the warranty!!!!!!! It is going to run out eventually. I just ordered my case of Royal Purple today; picking it up tomorrow; and installing a bunch of stuff next Tues
|
There's a loyal following among some on the flrx8 forum who think anything but dino oil will kill the engine.
They don't seem to understand how synthetics are made, or what they do, and no amount of discussing the topic will change their minds. I put together this FAQ on the topic: http://rotaryinsider.com/rx8-47.html |
Oh dear god. Here we go again. PLEASE, FOR THE SAKE OF HUMINTIY. SOMEONE END THIS THREAD!
|
Hey sumthing new............ :rolleyes:
|

It could be from the man on the grassy knoll :squint: You could call Scott a liar, But I do not advise it. |
Digital, no one is denying that mazda's official stance is that synthetics are not recommended.
The tag in of itself doesn't show us anything new. |
Was not discussing the Mazda stance, damnyankee is eluding to the fact that the tag is not legit.
|
Nice find. :hahano:
|
1) Notice the date on that tag? August 1, 2001?
2) Notice that Betsey from MazSport says: "DO NOT use synthetic oil in your engine. It is okay to change the other oils after your 30k maintenance to synthetic, but not the engine... " I wonder if that is Scott's official stance? |

that is absolutely NOT what I'm saying. I'm saying , that if that tag is on reman engines, or in fact original engines, but the car's owner never sees that tag , what the hell good is it. I'm not questioning the poster at flrx8club at all. I'm saying if mazda puts that tag on the car, WHY THE F))))) don't they put something in our owners manual telling us not to use synthetic. I don't like the looks of that tag means I don't like finding out that we shouldn't use synthetic on a GD website instead of from MAZDA directly. like I said on flrx8club.net, if i didn't read websites, I 'd be putting synthetic in my car and never thinking twice about it BECAUSE MAZDA HAS NEVER TOLD ME NOT TO. |
