Yes, ridiculous right?

Crazy. The lone dealership around here has somehow eased my casa-phobia. They've always been thorough, attentive to my OCD but reasonable requests, & fair w/ post Yojin costs. Their service has relieved me of thinking usual DIY.
That Shell station 5w-30 price has made em look even better.

Zic is Group III. Ok na rin for the price.

Have to have my brake fluid replaced din pala.

Aircon filters pwede na replacement. I'd stick to OEM engine air filters though.

Any GroupIV? EuroFS pushes buildup off better.

The less volatile the oil, the better against buildup. GroupIV oils generally have lower Noack Volatility than Group III oils.

What area are you in? Last time I checked at the Valle Verde station across Mazda Pasig they didn't have it. They have a Hunter alignment machine though.

4.5 liters ata oil capacity natin. If so we need to buy one gallon and one quart.

As per car manual, it's 4.2 liters for oil and filter change. So yes, it's one gallon and a quart.

How about engine and cabin air filters? Should I go genuine as well?

Genuine Mazda air/cabin/oil filters definitely.

Perhaps Zic oil would do fine if oil change is done every 5T km or 6 months?

It's not just about the oil change interval. The oil's Noack Volatilty matters, esp for DI engines. Group IV is less volatile than III.

Sir,

Saan pede makabili ng genuine maliban sa casa?

Thanks

Sir,

So far sa casa lang ang alam kong siguradong genuine. Dati bumibili ako sa mazford sa banawe para sa 1st gen mazda 3 pero may nabasa akong thread dito sa tsikot forum na may mga fake parts silang binebenta.

Meron pang isang store yung golden isuzu mazda parts. May fb page sila, check it out. Not sure kung talagang genuine mazda parts yung binebenta nila. Meron nag recommend dito sa tsikot, yun lang ang info ko.

Di pala ako pede magpa oil change outside casa if i want to use genuine oil filter and others.
My next pms is December and tapos na yojin warranty.
Any idea here kung magkano cost ng oil and filter change for 45k kilometers or 3.5 years old?
Thanks po

My post-Yojin oil change was under Php4k. Opted for the oil change alone.....skipped the other services.

I missed my 1st PMS post-yojin last June (every June and Dec ang PMS). What do you suggest I get sa PMS sa casa for an odo reading of only 11k this Nov or next month?

Odo was 8113 last Dec 1, 2017.

Ummm, just 3k in almost a year? No urgency, but once a year PMS for light usage should be fine.[emoji4]

Yup i have a daily beater and the places I go to are all near the house (school and business). Even the wife's office is walking distance[emoji16] Plus we also don't go too far on weekends since everything is almost here in the south as well, hence the low odo reading.

Just don't want to get duped by casa SA's for stuff not needed.[emoji4]

Well, call is now yours. You can even opt to DIY the oil change. It's not difficult, esp if you have a Fumoto.[emoji4]
