Hi
I have a quick few questions I'd like to get people's opinions on....
I had a service done at Mazda 10 days ago, just a regular oil change.
1) They said my injectors were dirty and they need to clean them out.
2) Transmission oil needs to be changed ( doing it next week)
On friday night, I was driving home from work, and I had one bar left, and the trip computer said I had around 10km left to empty which is fine as the gas station was about 1.5KM away. All of a sudden, the engine cuts out, and i'm out of gas with one bar left. I pull over and try to restart, engine starts fine... try to put into drive and go.... engine dies. Call Mazda, they show up ~20 minutes later and tow me to a gas station and I fill up. Everything seemed to be fine until today, I went to go and fill the spray liquid, and I noticed before pouring it in, that just below the coolant reservoir there's a huge splash of something all the way down onto the car body. I'm not sure if it's just Mazda over doing their greasing the bolts or whatever or if it's something that is leaking... (Since this loss of gas, the car has been quite jerky in the gears, not sure if that's just to do with the oil change that's needed or it's something else... ?)
Any opinions, and is the
