Does anyone know a supplier of Fl22coolant other than a main agent.
Thanks in advance.

I bought mine online but it was expensive. Ebay I think.

I think mine came from a mx5 forum, not cheap, having said that I haven't used a great deal.

Googled and saw this: http://www.racingbeateurope.com/bmazda- ... 2204-p.asp
Don't know how £28.20 + del. for 5L premixed compares with dealer prices though.

Thanks for the info, only had the cx3 for a week doesn't need coolant yet just being prepaired.
Really impressed with the vehicle so far.....sport nav petrol pearlescent white, arm rest, front parking sensors.

I think you will find Anchorman is a perfect perfectionist, and will want all his fluids spot on and everything else for that matter.

We’re you spying on me? ;-)

It was just a tad low and I bought a whole gallon just to sort it out. I get annoyed at myself at times.

I regularly check the levels but have never needed to top them up between services, apart of course from the washer fluid. This gives me the opportunity to remind myself what the engine looks like and to keep the under bonnet area clean. I don't like having to prop the bonnet open manually though. The bonnet on my 1970 Rover P5B is self supporting. So much for progress......

There are gas bonnet struts available for the CX-3, but are either from the Baltics, Russia or Taiwan. Here's a link to the latter for £51 plus £9 postage

I'm waiting for someone to buy a set and advise on their quality before I take the plunge :)

Further to my earlier post, I've recently purchased a 5 litre bottle of Mazda pre-mixed FL22 coolant from my dealer for £12.82 inc. VAT.
Mazda part number C122CL005
