When an engine is 25 to 30 years old and people say that then I would belive it. At 6 years of age your engine is mainly highway. Highway miles are said to be 1/10 of city driving making it more 30k. It has less heat cycle, less age on seals, rubber bushings, starter starts, etc. I have a 92 Accord (362k), 92 Del Sol (305k), 88 Concert (156ķ), 91 Prelude (145k) all original engines and transmissions still factory sealed. Just regular services.

@@crxdelsolsir That's amazing. I am curious does any of your cars' engine burn oil or leak oil at the rear main seal? What is your oil change interval like? I have a 2001 Civic with 210k mile that leaks at the rear main seal but otherwise runs great. I change oil at 5k which is typically around 9 mos to a year. I have never own any car that doesn't leak at the rear main seal after 15-20 years is when they typically start. I was wondering if anyone have a solution to solving the rear main seal leaking at this 15-20 years mark.

I'm the 2nd owner of a 14 Mazda3 SGT (2.5l Skyactiv). I've had it since 22k miles and it's about to tick at 150k miles in a week or so. July will make my 7th year of ownership. I've replaced the belt tensioner twice in that time and replaced the water pump. The pump was leaking per dealership inspection, however, I never noticed a leak or any anomalies with fluid levels, and that was done at about 55k miles, but was covered under CPO warranty. Oil change intervals have been 7500 miles. I've done transmission fluid exchange twice. The car has never left me stranded and currently averages 31 to 37 mpgs. I've been keeping records since 2017. Lowest overall lifetime mpg for one tank, 17.9 mpg (pandemic - city setting), highest mpg which most recently beat its record (37.5) is 38.0 mpg. I live in rural area and most trips are 20 - 65 miles one way.

Bought a Mazda3 hatch brand new in 2016. 118,000 miles later and not a single issue with the engine. I did have the serpentine belt replaced at 100,000 miles. The other day my back passenger side shocks went. Aside from that, it’s been a fine car. As long as you get oil changes in a timely manner, I feel like my Mazda will run forever.

Here in Canada, the oil change minder pops up at 8000km/5000mi. I have a 2017 Mazda6. I think manufacturers are lying about long oil change intervals so it appears that the cars are lower maintenance and as long as they clear warranty and then some, they are ok. Modern engines work harder than engines of 10-20 years ago, unless oil technology is changing faster than engine technology, no point in extending oil changes. Plus they’re all going lighter weight oils and engines start burning them in a couple of thousand miles.

Try X-Caps, a fuel catalyzer. It makes the fuel burn hotter and more completely inside the combustion chamber. This cleans your engine. This lowers the temperature of the catalytic combuster. It also raises the octane level so that you don't have to buy the expensive high octane gas. You can buy a trial size good for 5 gas tanks.

Using a top tier gas could be the solution without resorting to using premium. Top tier brands add their own superior additives to the standard additive that comes from the refinery. Look for a list of top tier gas providers on the internet. Very often it costs no more than no name fuels or only slightly more.

I have 500k miles on three Mazdas with basically zero forced maintenance beyond a failed A/C compressor on a 2005 3 hatchback. Just ordered a 2014 CX-50 turbo model. Just be sure to keep up with basic maintenance (oil, plugs, tires, brakes) and you'll get many years out of them. I never get the extended warranty, but might consider one this time since the engine will have a turbo.

Don't be confused as it's not really a 14 to 1 compression ratio, it's a 14 to 1 power ratio. This engine uses Miller cycle operation which holds the intake valve open longer to push some of the intake air back out on the compression stroke. The effective compression ratio is closer to the 8-10 to 1 needed avoid engine knock on low octane fuel to . The full 14 to 1 power ratio means more power is harvested on the power stroke with greater fuel economy resulting.
@deegan463
@deegan463 11 ай бұрын
It does not use the Miller Cycle. It uses variable valve timing to acheive, under certain conditions, the principles of the Atkinson cycle. The Miller Cycle, by definition, uses either a supercharger or turbocharger. But yes you're absolutely right that it's not 14:1 at all times.
@vivienstaehle1326
@vivienstaehle1326 11 ай бұрын
indeed, for compression test, mazda official note says the pressure measured when doing test would be arround 8 bars because the intake valves stays open even when piston goes up. 14:1 is the difference of volume between dead up and dead down

Mine has misfires or rpm stuttering when starting up. Mine also gets extremely poor in gas mpg. I have 2023 Mazda cx50 and it’s my first Mazda. Not thrilled by this suv performance.

why does the Mazda dealership want to clean the carbon off the intake valves every ten thousand miles for $200 because of carbon buildup? If it is not done, the milage goes down from 50mpg to 35 mpg.

No wonder my CX-50 runs better on Top Tier gas. I tossed in 89 and the mileage went up. I like the fact, he mentioned changing the oil every 6 not 12k miles. People that believe every 10 to 12 is fine, you're going to have sludge and problems.

There is a reason why other manufacturers don’t go that high on compression ratio. Another similar example, BMW make their engines run too lean and their engines are currently suffering heat issues.

It's not really a problem on a Miller cycle engine like the SkyActive G is, but it's also not really a 14 to 1 compression. More correctly, it's 14 to one power stroke ratio since the intake valve is held open a bit long on the compression stroke.

Anyone with GDI have carbon build up?
@robertdevoy3119
@robertdevoy3119 10 ай бұрын
I understand Mazda defeated that problem in two ways. The engine has a built-in fuel/oil separator, so no aftermarket catch can is needed. Also, Mazda found that keeping the valves above 400 degrees F would prevent carbon build up, so they designed the head coolant passages to accomplish that.

@Nordestada 10 ай бұрын
Carbon build up is normal for GDI engines, but occasional Italian tuneups would do the trick. Driving like a grandma would contribute even more to carbon building up. Watch videos on how to clean the carbon from the valves.

Expect the BELT TENTIONER to take a dump at 50K miles on sky active engines, mine(2023 CX-50) just took a dump and it cost 583.00 dollars to replace, Mazda is aware of the shitty belt tensioners and has done nothing about it...
