    Default 6MPS 100k service and oil thoughs.

    So dads MPS6 has finally hit the big 100000! As it is getting ready for the service he is looking at doing all of the oils. Was wondering what is the recommened Motor oil, Gear box oil, and possibly rear diff oil. That is if the rear diff should be changed. He has not changed oils from the stuff that mazda put in on the normal services.

    Hey I just read the post on the oil type changes----- regarding the Oil grades and what they mean.....
    I feel the information is slightly incorrect.
    let me know if you want the actual real information.
    And try not to go for an oil that is super different without running a flush through, as mixing 2 very different oils can be damaging.
    Seen it today on a 500,000(yes half a mil) truck engine. used a new type of oil, it separated when it came into contact with leftover residue and the bearings went!
    Oil Annalysis is my job FYI.
