Pretty much every OEM says 1qt/1k mi is "normal"

If fuel dilution is a problem, it's an issue with the engine not operating correctly or the sample being taken after lots of short trips and not getting the engine up to temp Here is my oil test @ 7k mi from 3 years ago on page 23. Oil was regular Idemitsu, not high moly

Visual appearance means nothing. The viscosity and additives will be fine for way more than the 7500mi interval in the manual. If you want to do the 1st change "early" just do it at 5k. From the factory it has a high-moly oil from Idemitsu (assuming it's the NA engine).

3psi is nothing. that can happen from just from the sun hitting the tires

Might be a small leak in the valve cover gasket

Why would you want an oil made to an old spec when there is an updated one available? (Canadian labeling)

His 2016 is 14.8 gallons for 2WD or 15.3 for AWD

the miles to empty number leaves a lot of cushion so you don't run out of gas. it's supposed to come on with 2.5 gallons left but my 6 has always come at 4

I've only ever seen the update feature work on CX-50s.

Most dealers should be out of the GF5 version as it hasn't been made in years. There is a new GF-6 version now that Mazda is recommending for the CX70/90

The seat bottom tends to be too short and narrow for people above avg height and weight. Short and thin people rarely have issues with the. Hopefully the redesign will make them 2" longer and 2" wider. The seats in the CX9 and Mazda 6 were perfect. They should have just used those

happened on my 6 too. i worked a drop of gun oil into it and it works now
