If you're located or nearby Quezon City, you can give Drive+ Car Care Center a try. So far the reviews are really good

Every 6 mos po ba need magchange oil? and recommended ba na fully synthetic? weekend lang usually nagagamit car ko so minimal mileage 22k*3yrs.

Hi! Planning to get a 2nd hand 2014 Mazda 3 2.0R 5-door. Will be coming from a Toyota Altis 2010 G. Is it still a good choice? Any common issues I should be aware of? TIA!

Grats, sir! Just get a CTEK CT5 start/stop batt conditioner to extend the required Enhanced Flooded Batt's life. It's pricier than the regular flooded ones. Availability of iStop brand choices is increasing & cost is dropping, though.
Enjoy the Mown3rship....it'll be spoiling![emoji4]

Yes. Change oil every 6 months.

Direct inject engines (kasama skyactives) with no port injection causes intake port carbon buildup. I think early change oil can minimize it. Doesn't prevent it tho.
