    2010 Mazda3S - water leak? Found moisture in spare tire well

    Wondering what the cause of this could be - it's never had a moisture issue before. My wife accidentally broke the roof antenna while removing snow. I taped it together using gorilla tape. I recently opened the cover to the spare tire compartment and noticed moisture in the mat under the...

    2017~2024 Strange Oil Change problem - can't read the dipstick properly, low oil level warning

    I posted this in another thread, but will create a new one since I need to decide what to do. Background - 9/28/2018 - 1st oil change at around 3k miles.
