hello I just bought a mazda3 s with 300 miles on it. however, I was wondering when I should bring the car into the dealer for ANY sort of maintenance. The dealer told me to do it at 3000 miles...? is he trying to rip me off? what would you guys do? thanks Jas

Replying to: JBaumgart (Sep 14, 2007 11:40 am) That's certainly not a bad idea, but I didn't do it. I'm probably going to switch to synthetic at the first 5000 mile change. In my other cars I run synthetics with oil change intervals of 7000-8500 miles, but with the MS3 I'm going conservative because of the turbo as well as the direct injection fuel dilution issues.

Replying to: roadburner (Sep 14, 2007 11:52 am) synthetic oil? Also have another question Whenever i have the car in P position and press on the breaks I hear some clicking sound. Also, when I have my hand on the gears while doing this I feel some vibration. Is this normal? I dont recall having this when I first bought the car... thanks |

Replying to: ru03j89 (Sep 15, 2007 12:37 am) Probably just an oil change. The 5000 mile service includes an oil change, a tire rotation, and an inspection of various systems. synthetic oil? I doubt it.
