    I didn\'t see anything about a tire rotation in any of those service check-up\'s.
    Does anybody know when the suggested time to rotate our tires is?

    8K - @ every oil change.. just keep in mind where you leave the tires when you put winters on (mark them up LF,RF,RR,LR)

    I had my 24000KM service at Ajax Mazda, the damage $217. I think I got suckered, ah well, I did have my rims re-finished because of bubbling / rusting.

    I think this was posted to eliminate the myths about maintenance requirements from Mazdas own handbook.

    i can tell you that a 96k service costs 256 bucks. you get a oil change and a coolant replacement. the rest of the stuff, checking the fluids and looking over the car i can do myself. since my warranty is up, i wont be paying 260 bucks for stuff i can do in my own driveway. i like mazda service, but they dont do jack but glance at the car. they tried to charge me 35 bucks last time i was at the dealership to check if my fluids were at the right levels, and at the same time making it seem as if theres a proper way of doing it and its soo hard........yeah right...thanks mazda for your free work during the warranty period, but until i have a issue i cant fix myself, i wont be paying 75 bucks for a synthetic oil change...

    sorry had to rant a little

    So i'm at agincourt getting an oil change at the 24k/12 month service. I declined the brake maintenance because of the price and the little time i have. Is this a bad thing? Do i really need this and should bring it in again or find a place that does it for cheaper?
