    Mazda engine reliability testing

    Having a discussion with someone on another forum about Mazda engine reliability and I recall someone posting a link here to a website that does 100k+ mileage testing on motors and measured Mazda to have extremely low signs of wear that I tried searching for but can not find. Any help in...

    Genuine Mazda Hitch/Tow Bar Part # ?

    Does anyone have a part # for the genuine Mazda hitch or tow bar. Perhaps one of the users from a country that actually sells them (Europe/Asia/Aus etc)? Looking at my hitch options and want to compare an imported 'genuine' vs the aftermarket brands that are available (Curt, Draw-Tite).

    Which Year? Buying a used Mazda 3 Sport - BM (3rd Gen)

    This Christmas/New Year, my wife and I plan on trading in our 2011 SX4 and 2003, Civic for a 2018 CX5 Diesel and a 3rd generation Mazda 3 Sport (making some lucky dealer/salesman very happy I'm sure). We're likely looking at the mid level model with the smaller motor (better FE) but decent...

    Manual Transmission with the diesel?

    Since the manual transmission ship has largely sailed on all but the base model (and only in Canada) in North America, I'm curious to see how many people interested in the diesel version would entertain/prefer a stick with the diesel model when it arrives here. Hopefully, with a positive...
