I thought they are ment to be way better.That is low-speed, short-trip driving. It's pretty similar to the mazda 2 that it replaced.

Z2TT Member 714 Member For: 13y 23d Posted 09/07/14 03:08 PM Share Posted 09/07/14 03:08 PM (edited) I agree with Ratter, capped price servicing is just ridiculous. $320 or something for an oil change when you can get that done for half price at non dealership mechanics and probably get a better service too. My XR6T when I bought it came with a stupid sticker saying "Capped priced servicing", and the sticker is even shaped like an oil cap Edited 09/07/14 03:10 PM by Z2TT 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88330-fg-ecoboost-engine-vs-4-litre-na/page/4/#findComment-1484168 Share on other sites More sharing options...
