With servicing from £50.00 (including parts and labor)
there is no excuse not to keep your RX in tip top
running order.
The chart to the right outlines the basic service plan that Mazda recommended for the RX-8 in the UK, when compared to the chart below it is obvious things could have been done better.
While Mazda’s service shcedule is quite comprehensive, there are still areas that can be improved upon.
We would recommend the introduction of the following changes/additions:
- An intermediate oil changes (between services roughly 3000-6000 miles or 3- 6 month)
- More frequent spark plug changes (12-24month intervals)
- Ignition coil pack changed at 30’000 mile intervals (maximum)*
- Drive Belts (50’000 miles or 48 month intervals)
*If your still running Genuine Mazda Coil Packs
If your driving your car hard on a regular basis you may also want to look at changing the following more frequently.
- Air Filter
- Manual transmission oil
- Diff (rear axel) oil
