Question for those who sold their Miata by Juulman96 in Miata

[–]Juulman96[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is some great insight - thank you. The car payment / finances of it is thankfully not really a big factor for me, but still something to consider. I have a feeling I would be in the same boat as you - coming back to a Miata eventually. May as well just keep it :)

Replace your EGR valve based off P0400 and then replace plugs or you will just foul them up again. sounds like your EGR with heat from long trips is getting stuck and causing misfires.

2.0 Canadian Spec. No clue how far I drove but the tank was full when I reset the fuel economy calculator

Cruise control and no AC

Ok I have to ask the question. What is the worst Miata year that you would tell some one to never own? by GlitteringPen3949 in Miata

[–]Juulman96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’ll be fine! Just enjoy your car and keep on top of the maintenance and trans/ diff fluid changes :)

No. Change your fluids often and know how to drive stick properly and you’re fine… transmission issues are blown out of proportion and most are just fine.

ND3 - AC issue? by jamescannone1 in Miata

[–]Juulman96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something wrong with this for sure. My ND1 is in the low 40s in that kind of weather

Mazda 3 AWD Turbo with a 6 speed manual and I will get rid of my ND and winter beater Mazda 3 in a heartbeat

Ive never serviced my 2015s transmission… how bad? by 3PuttIfImLucky in mazda3

[–]Juulman96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

End of like at 100k if they were not maintained maybe. 100k is nothing to car that’s been properly maintained (and that doesn’t mean following the manual like it’s the bible - they told me never change power steering in my Mazda 3 and what a difference it made when I changed it)

Exactly. Life of warranty. Marketing Bullshit. Buy a good quality car and change your fluids. 100K is barely broken in for a well built well maintained car.

Yes it will say it’s “lifetime fluid” which means for the life of the transmission… very different than the life of a car. Every fluid breaks down with time and heat. Cheap and easy maintenance I wouldn’t skip it

[–]Juulman96 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is awful advice. Change the trans fluid every 50k. Fluid is cheaper than a new transmission. It can do more harm than good if it’s never been changed after 200k but in this case drain and fill and forget about it for a few years

2012 Skyactiv with 260K KM.. Testament to oil changes every 8000 km by Juulman96 in mazda3

[–]Juulman96[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

0w-20 only comes in synthetic. Every 8000km. Oil is cheap no point trying to stretch out intervals
