SAE 5W-30 API SJ or ILSAC GF-2 rated synthetic or semi-synthetic oil is generally recommended. Always check manual for the most accurate specification.
Coolant Spec:
Ethylene glycol based coolant, typically a 50/50 mix with distilled water. Mazda recommends specific long-life coolant. Consult manual.
Miller Engine Specific:
Potential for oil consumption, particularly if maintenance is neglected. Supercharger belt wear, and occasional issues with the supercharger clutch/assembly. Intake manifold issues related to the butterfly valves can also occur.
Transmission Specific:
Potential for occasional hard shifts or delayed engagement, especially if fluid and filter are not maintained. Internal seal wear can also be a factor.
Suspension Specific:
Wear in front and rear control arm bushings, ball joints, and tie rod ends are common for a vehicle of this age, leading to play and clunking noises.
Electrical Specific:
Aging wiring harnesses can develop issues. Window regulators and door lock actuators can fail. Occasional issues with the climate control unit display.
