My CX-8 has been in use for 11 months, with a total mileage of 12000. It’s time for second insurance. Make an appointment by phone one day in advance, go early the next morning, mainly carry out the second maintenance and recall service (replacement of fuel pump core).
Second guarantee content: engine compartment cleaning, oil change (dynamic oil change, 65 yuan, at your own expense), replacement machine filter, tire pressure check and air supply, lighting inspection, air filter blowing, air conditioning filter inspection (after the maintenance technician said that it is too dirty to change the air conditioning filter, 292 yuan replacement, really not cheap).
Cleaned engine compartment
Air conditioner filter element is still made in Japan, it is really not cheap!
Carbon scavenger (200ml 1 bottle)
Dynamic oil change (engine oil)
Chassis inspection, found that the distributor (or nearby, the specific oil leakage is not very clear) there is an obvious oil leakage phenomenon, a large area of oil sludge. Maintenance technician small master invited the master to see, the master opened his eyes and lied, saying that it was not oil leakage, obviously perfunctory, too affecting people’s mood! I said that so many oil stains are not oozing, where did the oil come from? The master said to clean the oil stains first, run for a period of time and then observe. I think it’s still in the warranty period anyway, so let’s observe for a while. Mazda’s quality control is really worrying, the first time I use a Mazda car, just come with me like this, it’s really disappointing. We just have to keep watching.

Fuel pump core replacement (recall service) requires the temporary removal of the second row left seat, and then cut off the blankets laid in the left seat to replace (the receptionist and craftsman will warn in advance that the blankets laid in the car need to be cut, which cannot be repaired). Replacing the fuel pump core requires no more than half of the fuel tank fuel. Remove the fuel pump assembly, replace the pump core and then install it back.

According to the interpretation of the 4S store, the ten free maintenance policies of CX- in 1985 only include basic maintenance (that is, only oil, machine filter replacement spare parts and working hours), and others need to be paid at their own expense. This second insurance costs a total of 1098 yuan (maintenance settlement list) and 502 yuan at one’s own expense. According to the second guarantee maintenance settlement list, Mazda maintenance cost is not cheap, on the high side.
Share with the car:
(1) fuel consumption: the current total mileage is 12086 km, showing the average fuel consumption 8.0L/100km. Run more at high speed and try not to use a car in the city.
(2) before the overall car experience was satisfactory, Erbao found obvious oil leakage at or near the distributor, which made me have doubts about the quality control of Mazda.
