Re: 4th service cost

Cheers for the further info. I found the Mazda Original Oil on Amazon ( Via Vospers ) and also via Vospers direct, where it was a bit cheaper than thru Amazon. Only thing that slightly concerned me was that it gave suitability dates as 2015/2016/2017 ( our CX3 is 2018 ) - did the engine change in 20...

Re: 4th service cost

Much appreciated as always Julian :)

edit : What engine oil do folks on here recommend for the CX3 ?

Re: 4th service cost

Couldnt find the service table in the books we have in the car ?? Also checked on the MyMazda App - tells me date/mileage of next ( 4th) service , but no details...
Will check the book again.

In the meantime i had a 4th service quote of £ 319 from a Somerset Mazda main dealer.

Re: battery!

Just to update, after changing the fob battery, she-who-must-be-obeyed, reports that everything is ok again !

To be honest, i didnt think it had been that long since i previously replaced fob battery, but its probably my memory playing tricks on me again :-)

Cheers for feedback.
