looking for advice on oil change for 2011 Mazda 3

[Timo325]

What's the rebate like now days?

online for M1?

If she wants 0w20 and it is spaced for 0w20 why do people keep trying to put a different viscosity in her engine? PP or M1 in 0w20 plus a Fram Ultra and she is good for 9,000 miles. Ed

Tell her she can extend her oci to save more money.

Put in for the rebate.

Agreed.

Mobil 1 Extended Performance 0w20 with Fram Ultra will be able to extend OCI to 15k miles easily.

Buy 2 5-qt jugs Mobil 1 Extended Performance 0w20 at Walmart (with 2 separate receipts) and get $24 rebate from Mobil, the final cost should be less than $25 per oil change with Fram Ultra oil filter for 1 year OCI up to 20k miles.

Because she is getting the OC for free and the poster indicated

Quote:

I have a stash of 5W-20 Napa synthetic.

Because Ursharak776, the OP, says he already has NAPA synthetic 5w-20 he kinda wants to use. Safe to do.
