what was the causes of it dying those 3 times?

Never, EVER tell a dealer, "I want the XX mile service" or that is what will happen. They all bundle up services like that hoping that someone will just say ok. This is what the owner's manual manual says is due at 60k miles: Oil Change Tire Rotation Change cabin air filter Tighten nuts and...

Please don't spread disinformation that 15-20% off MSRP is a 'good deal' on Mazdas. Mazda is one of the lowest markup brands on the market. From invoice to MSRP on a Signature is only about $1200 (that's probably why the dealers are using that amount as their discount). CX9's had big rebates on...

also works like that on the CX50

No. That is needed to get the emissions components up to temp faster

Mazda gets a lot of engineers as customers. I could have told you the OP was an engineer if he hadn't of mentioned it 😂

yes. sometimes it throws a code that'll be in memory. at the very least you'll probably get a software update out of it

take it in

while parked, get the engine up to 2500 RPM for 5 min. Do it twice if it doesn't stop after that

Are you driving it for a while at operating temp before taking the sample? That will burn off excess fuel and give a more accurate reading

I would do 38 on the fronts and 35 on the rears (where there is less weight). In addition to more center wear, going up 10 psi over the door tag will reduce your traction. That's a bad thing if you're carrying around your family and need to stop quickly in the rain or bad weather

you're going to wear out the centers of the tires with it that high

that might be covered under the 96m/80k emissions warranty

Not true. This is from a couple of years ago. 7k miles on the oil and viscosity is right where it should be and there are plenty of additives left

could also be a water pump leak

that's how Mazda says to fix the issue on new units that come with that issue right off the truck

It might be the oil burning issue on the turbos. Take it to the dealer now while it's still under warranty

Those low mileage ones are almost guaranteed to have been dealer service loaners being sold as CPOs

The roof line looks not as tall as the 90 and it also looks like it might be more narrow

It's funny that the "0w-20 is too thin" conversation is finally making it here after a decade. Last year Toyota started using 0w-8 oil in its 2.0L Corollas. I can just imagine the "oil is too thin" crew going nuts at that
