You are hilarious Cali. Great at attacking others when they don't fall into line with your opinions....

Fortunately, we don't have to go to you for repairs to be approved....

 

There was no attack to any member. I did not see I quoted you in the last response. But that word gets tossed around these days a lot. LOL
Maybe making fun of but that its! Dude!
As for service work...
Actually with my experience and qualifications as well I am an approved by MAZDA warranty automotive technician anyone coming to me would be better than the average dealership crew! lol
ASE

better go revisit this thread again.
What do you do or have done for a living - Mazda Forum - Mazda Enthusiast Forums

 

I didn't say you couldn't do the repair, I am sure you are well qualified to do so.

 

I have a 2020 purchased in 2023 dealer used with 40k. I now have 53k. No oil consumption or dirty oil issues with many short trips.

 

purchased a preferred trim cause it doesn't have a turbo, i-stop or cylinder deactivation...fits my needs pretty well and very happy with it so far

 

This is what I constantly recommend to all my friends, family and customers when often asked and it goes beyond just Mazda.



I did not and have factual data to support the % of history service between them it is simple math when I compare what we get as customers questions and service needed , the more features both cabin electronics' and running gear the more costly service with history will be to service them. I brag there is no production vehcle from the top brand auto manufactures that I can't trouble shoot to find the problem and then have it serviced (no EVs) in an hour or less. But I find that in the last year even with my active education and training that that number may need to be extended to 1.5 hors.

As for power difference I think I posed that way to many on all platforms get caught up in published numbers and to how they are derived.
Things are not exactly as published with most if you ever get one Dyon'd from a qualified Dyno Operator.
The only exception is if the auto manufacture uses SAE standard J1349®. which very few do and only with select model. I do know of any form Mazda is several years. What this says in a nut shell an auto manufacture can publish any engine power rating within a very small set of guidelines (virtually none) they want. If they want to brag or claim an exact number to be accurate, they must comply with the SAE standard J1349®. to publish them as such.
