    Spark plugs and ATF fluid panay "inspect" lang up to 60K. Surprisingly low maintenance.

    Personally, I would just replace it with a new battery.

    Unless you are maintaining multiple batteries or have a car that just sits in your garage for weeks and months, I find it hard to justify the price of a battery tender. I would just keep my battery and replace it once it's dead.

    I believe that you can justify the cost of a battery tender once you have extended the life of your battery for a year or two.

    In my case, my battery cost about 20k. I don't have plans to replace it next year so I am using CTEK battery charger. Plus, I always bring a jump-start battery.

    If the cost of the battery is more than twice of the battery tender, it makes sense. You'll get your ROI much quicker.

    From experience, a good tender does extend regular batt life around a coupla years. CTEK is worth getting.[emoji106]

    I feel your pain. Dapat November pa to. Tagal kong nakatyempo dumaan sa Mazda to buy an oil filter. Sakto Ms Universe nakadaan akong Mazda GH.

    Then I took a long time to decide whether to order Zic X9 or go with Shell na lang. Finally decided with Shell dahil nagsara na yung suking talyer malapit samin.

    I wish it were that cheap[emoji1] Maybe if it was diy? I'm afraid it'll cost double that amount.

    that's about the price of some hecho-derecho gas stations offering oil and filter change.
    gas-station brand of mineral oil, and generic filter like zic. "libre buga ang engine air filter. heh heh."
    "no waiting".
    everything finished in under an hour.
    been doing it for over a decade now, for my non-mazdas.

    Hehe...I've long preferred DIY fluid changes w/ the proper OE products. No waiting, too.[emoji4]

    Just had my oil changed post-Yojin. Total cost P2600 (4L FS oil, Vic oil filter and 1L flushing oil with labor) at my local Motech.

    Forgot the brand but it was 5W-40 FS. The flushing oil, I wasn't able to read the brand or the specs clearly.
