Hahaha..

Just so I have a useful post, even if you did buy the wrong one, you still can go return or exchange it with your receipt.. You've never actually poured it in yet so can't say how you needed help.

Yes that's what a lot of people use, first gen's especially. I'm running Pennzoil Ultra (or Platinum) in my car as the second gen's take 5w30 and you can get it on spec.

Yup that's the correct oil. I've been using that for a long time and it was the best in my car when I did the oil analysis. Rotella T6 is the only oil I will use in my car.

Actually I'm glad this was posted.

Rotella t6 is suggested for my bike and I wouldn't buy it because of the diesel part.

On the bright side I got the right weight synthetic oil on sale for $25

T6 is JASO certified ...depends what you do with your bike, racing or just street riding, which would dictate whether or not the T6 would be appropriate for it.

You cant just go buy or copy the things that ms3 owners are using/doing to their cars..

You have to do alot of reading and study and learn about our cars..put some knowledge and do alot of homework man...

Its not one of those "hey it seems like theyre all using that kind of oil..then ill be using that oil also"....then when you buy it and read it and ask ...

"Why are we using Heavy Duty Diesel engine on our cars"



Very useful site for information here (www.mazdaspeedforums.org)...just dont go asking questions like that you will never get an answer....

Search that site in and out and youll have some knowledge about ms3

I know your 16 and all...so its kinda like in highschool...read the book to learn and study for the test..
