A 2013 with a 2.5 liter? That doesn’t sound right.

Some countries designate the model years a bit differently than we do in the States. Here, his vehicle would probably be an early 2014 model, but since it came out in 2013, it's designated as a 2013.

Right. Believe it or not, those were called 2014s by Mazda in the US. Go figure!

Another issue i have noticed. for the cold start the engine makes a noise (like fan noise) and seems a little bit rough and the coolant indicator light (blue) is on. After a while it is OK and smooth. What I understand might be spark plug issue. Anyone have any thought?
