#504 of 536 Re: MPV vs 5 [moveover] by d5a Dec 27, 2006 (6:45 am)
Replying to: moveover (Dec 26, 2006 7:32 pm) Wow great price! Was that $19.6k plus tax and tags or on the road? Which dealership in MD? I'm in MD also. They are hard to find vans. Found a silver at Russel Mazda with power doors for $20,212 plus tax and tags, but it got sold the next day when we went to look at it. Then found a black ES model at another dealer for $23,710 plus tax and tags, and it got sold before we got a chance to go to the dealership. The only one left that I've been able to find is a base model with out the power doors and its green (not our first choice either) but like you the rebates are great and its hard to pass up.   Do you like it so far? Seriously thinking of just buying the base green MPV that we have found just for the price. Replies to this message: moveover (Dec 27, 2006 9:15 am) bayboy8688 (Dec 27, 2006 8:27 pm)

Mine was their advertised special, but think you can do the same if you insist on getting a similar deal. Like it so far, it replaces our 2001 Odyssey EX. Which my wife found too big.

#507 of 536 first 4k break-in miles? by bayboy8688 Dec 27, 2006 (10:47 pm)
I bought my new MPV but it got 300 miles on it. I didn't think of the new car first 4K breakin miles when I bought it. I am wondering if this first 300 miles affect the car at all. The dealer told me that they got this MPV from another dealer 250 miles away and it's driven from there. I am pretty sure the driver wouldn't care about the break-in miles and wouldn't just drive it below 55 mph. But does that hurt the car much?   Thanks so much for your reply.

Replying to: bayboy8688 (Dec 27, 2006 10:47 pm) I don't recall Mazda changing the break-in period to a longer period. On our '02 ES, it was 600 miles (1,000 km). Quoted from the '02 Owners Manual - your owners manual should have something similar:   No special break-in is necessary, but a few precautions in the first 1,000 km (600 miles) may add to the performance, economy, and life of your Mazda. • Don’t race the engine. • Don’t maintain one constant speed for long. • Don’t drive constantly at full-throttle or high engine rpm for extended periods of time. • Avoid unnecessary hard stops. • Avoid full-throttle starts. • Don’t tow a trailer.   -Brian
#509 of 536 Break in by d5a Dec 28, 2006 (10:34 am)
Just purchased a 2006 MPV last night. The manual stated 600 miles for break in. Going to take it easy for at least 1,000 miles.

Replying to: d5a (Dec 28, 2006 10:34 am) Rental cars are never broken in. I've never heard their engines to be more prone to be in need of repair. Maybe, a properly broken-in engine gets 180,000 miles and one improperly broken in gets only 170,000. Anybody out there know of a friend or aquatence who didn't properly break-in their vehicle and later had problems attributed to such??   I would think it would take some serious intent to do damage to the engine of a new vehicle. I would certainly follow the owners manuals guideline for break-in, but I really wouldn't worry about a few hundred miles put on the vehicle before I bought it though.

Replying to: moveover (Dec 28, 2006 4:22 pm) Hi guys,   What do you think about the 7 years($1.7K)/10 years($2.4k) Mazda extended warranty? Did you bought it? We still can buy it. I don't want it because I basically for the price. If I pay more, I would look for other minivans that are more considerable more reliable by some people. But my wife wants the extended warranty becuase she wants "peace of mind"   BTW, OD5, have you got one yet?   Thanks Replies to this message: jfritsch (Dec 29, 2006 5:24 am) moveover (Dec 29, 2006 8:56 am)
