Replying to: ratgirl (Nov 19, 2008 4:53 pm) Your engine will provide more HP/torque with preminum fuel and less so with regular. If you romp on the throttle fairly often then I would use premium, if not... Basically MPG might be lower with regular but the payback, difference in price, may still make sense.

Replying to: wwest (Nov 20, 2008 2:54 pm) Wanted to get others opinions on this. Just bought an 07 with 20,000 miles. Love it so far. When we asked the salesman at the Mazda dealer about what fuel we would need to use, he said that some 07's have been adjusted after the fact so that 87 octane could be used. This sounds a little fishy to me. I know they did make updates to the 08s so that 87 could be used, but has anyone heard about changes or add-ons that are being made to 07s so you don't have to use 91+? Thanks |

Replying to: steve_ (Dec 01, 2008 7:01 pm) I also need to find out how many quarts of oil are needed with a oil filter and oil change. I cannot find it in the manual at all. I am going to try the Pennzoil Platinum full systhetic 5W 30 this time.

Replying to: 022540 (Jan 01, 2009 2:31 pm) The manual that I downloaded says that you use 6 US quarts of oil when you do both an oil and filter change. 5.6 quarts just for an oil change. How To Find Your Car Owner's Manual Online Hmm, Venice to Bull Shoals eh? (oh, SW LA - haven't spent much time around Lake Charles, went south of there on my last road trip). |
