RE: Oil
i went to the mazda dealership yesterday and i asked the service maneger about the oil on rx8s and he said that you supose to put the factory oil not synthetic because if u put synthetic you can blow the seals. Always use 5w-20 and premium gas.

Always use 5w-20 and premium gas. I've never known a leaky seal to get tighter over time, and allowing more oil to flow through the seal by using a synthetic just seems like a disaster waiting to happen. I know that if I'm buying a car, and I have a choice between buying a car that has leaky seals and one that doesn't, I'm picking the one that doesn't every time. |
RE: Oil
its only leaky if you put synthetic because synthetic is alot more watery oil then the 5w-20. Since its so watery it leacks through the seals not nesesarly because the leacks are messed up but because your supose to be using thicker oil andusing syntheticalso effects the cumbustion inside the rotary so all you can use to be running how ur supose to is 5w-20 and premium gas to get the best performance out of the rotary
