MAZDA5

  • 110,000 miles

This car eats rear tires, I agree with others and suggest replacing rear camber links/arms with adjustable type (fits Mazda3 and Focus). After replacing them and setting to the camber to -.05 degrees, fixed the problem. I now have 60k on the same set of tires and expect another easy 10k more. I will admit that this car has some issues (noisy front suspension when cold). I will also say that I use this car HEAVY....I pull a small trailer on a regular basis. I now have 110k miles. I have changed oil every 10k with Mobil1. It uses about 1 qt each 10k miles. I WISH my 08 Accord was this good....love this car
