Need Some Help On My New Mazda

[samiram]

Hi Guys,

After waiting for months, finally i was able to get a Mazda Familia BHALP model car with in my budget. However there are some minor problems in the car. Could you mazda pros help me on these things?

-There are few tiny corrosion spots in the body.

-Current owner didnt change the ATF and other oils in some time.

-need to have a full checkup of the car.

I heard there is a good place for mazda's called mazna motors. Can i do above things from there? Or do you have any better place to do these stuff for cheap?

Thanks,

Samira

Yes. you can get a full checkup done from them. They provide all services related to mazda's and they have parts as well.

The service is pretty decent too but sometimes the cost is a bit high. I've been driving a BJ5P for about 9 months now and

they did all the services up to now. If you need more details just message me, otherwise it will be like adverising in the forum.

Adding to what NashLeo has put –

Yes that plc. Can be recommended and work is good IMHO. Would advice you not to go hunting for CHEAP joints - Since you have mentioned that the oils have not been changed best you go for a complete check up done including a engine diagnosis at least for the first time and ensure all issues are sorted. There are CHEAP joints that have absolutely no clue of what they are doing and you would end up hating & bitching about the car and the brand. They have shell oil there and it’s a good oil to use and they have it in bulk so the cost is less. All filters and even gear oil is available.

The Plc. Is not cheap but work is good. The corrosion would be something that they would direct it to another garage but I’ve not done anything with them so cannot comment on the work.

wht is da YOM mate?

And if you are going to replace some parts , don't buy it straight away from them . just walk around some other places and compare the prizes.

Thanks for the responses guys. Really appreciate that. What is the best way to change ATF? Manual method or via a pump.? Btw YOM of my car is 1996. Bit old but i amazed with her performance.
