So we bought our Mazda 3 yesterday and did not buy the extended warranty. Can you point me to sources for discounted Mazda extended warranties? Thanks!

I swear this is going to be my last "new" post for a while... One big issue is I think my alternator is getting ready to go. I say this because I replaced the battery 3 weeks ago and everything seemed alright (old one died and replaced with biggest one I could). Right now if I am at idle and I...

New Mazda's come with a 3 year/36K bumper-to-bumper, 5 year/60K powertrain warranty. Worth it to get an extended warranty? Maybe yes... Maybe no... Depends primarily how lucky we are our "beyond warranty" major car repairs, and most of us are also just plain lousy in predicting the future...

Hey Team Mazda, I was looking into installing some extended side skirts for my 2011 Mazda 3 hatch. Most of the side skirts I've seen don't have holes drilled into them which makes me assume that after I place them underneath the original side skirts to drill holes into it, is this correct? I...

Howdy all, My dealership let me take home a Mazda3 iTouring for the night. I liked it a lot but had some questions: 1 -- A couple times during the night, when I went to brake, the edge of my foot was also pressing down on the accelerator *at the same time*. Basically, I was performing a heal...

I made the mistake of purchasing 100k miles/8y extended warranty... Anyone knows how to cancel it and get a refund? The dealer said it was possible.

Did anyone else get an extended warranty? This is directed to owners of trims with the tech package. Is it reasonable to have it just for that alone? I am on the fence on whether to keep mine or not. I was sold a 6yr/75k ext warranty for $1200 and having buyers remorse now. I've seen better...

As I've been searching high and low for spacers and studs to fit my 18x10 wheels, I found that most manufacturers and parts websites have been worth poppycock for finding spacer fitments that actually work on the 3. So, I am starting this thread so we can have a database of sorts on spacers and...

Hey folks, Just bought my first M3iGT. I opted for a 6yr/120K EW, the highest level that Mazda offers for an additional $1300. I can cancel at anytime, and still on the fence. It covers just about anything that isn't routine, or at least it says it does. Looking for opinions on this from...

I am selling these Brand New/never used BWR extended Lug Nuts (12x1.5) for $60 shipped or OBO. I need some money to prep for Mazfest and they have been laying around for a while.

I just bot my MS3 2011 I don't know the reliability of its turbo and engine. so i bot an extended warranty just in case. I would like to know the experience of the members of this forum 1) the reliability of MS3 turbo and its engine 2) should i keep my extended warranty 6/75,000 with $100...

My dad has been bothering me for the past week asking me to take my car to the dealer for it's next oil change. I really don't want to because last time I took it they left a big scratch on the side of it. He keeps telling me that if they don't have the car in the inspect it every so often they...

I was thinking of going to synthetic oil and was wondering whether to go w/ the regular or extended. I guess I'm kind of lazy changing oil in the winter. So, if I go with the extended oil i'd only have to change it once a year compare to 3-4 a year. Also, I don't put that many miles on my car...

I put a deposit on a new MS3 on Sat. I want to buy an extended warranty and they quoted $1500.00 for a 75,000 mile warranty. Let me know if anyone did better. Thanks!

Is there anyway to obtain an estimate for a extended warranty plan without resorting to contacting the dealer? I'm considering purchasing an '10 Mazda3 and would like an estimate beforehand.
