    Default 10K Service to my Mazda 3 MPS

    Just thought I'd share this. Booked my 3 MPS for its 10K service at Gold Coast Mazda (James Frizelle). When I asked as to what engine oil they use, I was told that they use Magnetec oil (5W-30) for all Mazda 3's, because it is a good all round oil. They have no problem in me supplying my own oil, but recommended a 5W-30 grade. I will supply them with a Castrol Edge or Nulon oil (see whats on special). The quote was $266.89, but they would drop "about $65.00" if I supply my own oil. Not a bad mark-up for Magnatec. I will supply feedback after the service!

    Had the vehicle serviced this morning, I have posted the result in the other thread regarding service ratings. I supplied Nulon 5W-30 synthetic as the Service Supervisor was pretty keen on putting a 5W oil in it. Anyone else used Nulon 5W-30 syn?
