DESCRIPTION

Mazda has developed factory recommended scheduled maintenance services that support all major vehicle systems. Mazda recommends dealers follow the scheduled maintenance tables as cited in the vehicle-specific workshop manual or owner's manual.

Services performed outside of Mazda's factory scheduled maintenance are not recommended. These services are unnecessary and create unneeded expenses for your customers.

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE

Refer to the applicable Workshop Manual or Owner's Manual for vehicle-specific manufacturer scheduled maintenance.

Workshop Manual - Refer to section 00-00 SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE.
Owner's Manual - Refer to section 8 Maintenance and Care.

NOTE: The following services are not included in Mazda's Factory Scheduled Maintenance:

Service	Notes
Transmission flushes	Transmission fluid flushing should only be performed when instructed by Workshop Manual or any other Mazda publication. Transmission fluid replacement is only recommended on B-Series Truck and Tribute and should be performed only at the mileage intervals specified in the owner's manual. Transmission flushing is recommended if the customer accidentally adjusted the transmission level using an incompatible type of fluid.
Transmission oil additives	Transmission oil additives could (under certain conditions) lead to internal damage and void the warranty.
Engine flushes	Engine oil flushes are unnecessary. Contaminated oil from flushing machines may damage the engine and void the warranty.
Engine oil additives	These additives could (under certain conditions) lead to engine damage, prevent piston rings from sealing, and void the warranty.
Engine cooling system flushing	Mazda recommends coolant replacement starting at 100,000 miles of service on all models since 2008 (except B-Truck and Tribute). Prior to 2008, some vehicles have a replacement starting at 100,000 miles an d 2 years on others, depending on the model. Flushing the coolant system is only recommended if t he customer accidentally adjusted the coolant level u sing an incompatible type of coolant. Flushing machines that recondition? the existing cool ant should never be used. This procedure cannot completely reverse the chemical deterioration that occurs to the coolant during use.
Cleaning of injectors	Cleaning injectors without an actual power related complaint from the customer, does not improve engine performance. Fuel injector malfunctions should only be repaired by replacement.
Nitrogen for tires	Compressed air contains approximately 80 percent nitrogen. There is no practical value added from filling tires with nitrogen.
Brake fluid flushes	Brake fluid flushing should only be performed when instructed by Workshop Manual or any other Mazda publication. Contaminated fluid from flushing machines may dam age the brake system and void the warranty.
Power Steering fluid flushes	Power Steering fluid flushing should only be performed when instructed by Workshop Manual or any other Mazda publication. Contaminated fluid from flushing machines may dam age the power steering system and void the warranty
