Please check your engine oil regularly, buy genuine engine oil from authorize dealer, dont trust something unusually cheap

Learn to do own maintenance lor.

Checking oil levels is easy. Pop the hood, lift the dipstick and see the level. If below Min, top up and then send the car for checkup.

Unfortunately, people here only buy cars for looks and comfort. Maintenance knowledge zero. Everything let the SC do. Once the SC or owner fucked up, all buat dunno.

10k km service interval is a scam. If the car is a daily driver, send in for service after 7.5k km and don't wait any longer.

Been doing this for all my cars and none ever had engine failures for the past 35+ years.

Engine running without engine oil, dont have any symptoms at all? Make sense or not?

didn't refill after the last service? but surely the engine would scream if it's bone dry

Mazda car sensors so lousy meh? No more engine oil light never come out meh?

This is a case of probably SC forgot to replace engine oil from last service. No way engine oil is bone try unless the engine block like crack.

Sometimes send to SC we trust them by paying that premium. He needs to start lawyer up then nego with the SC on how they want to settle.

Surely a new car would have displayed the Low Oil level warning right during startup or midway driving right? Or some drivers just ignored only. I know women drivers hardly paid attention to the warnings and drove like normal.

Knife brand oil or those RM2.50 a pack subsidized oil?

Impossible.

If forgot to replace, the Low Oil level warning will pop up multiple times.

“To fellow car owners:”
“Check your engine oil regularly”
In other words: I didn’t check that’s why my engine dry

How to prove?

Ownself also don't check

Bugger said driven 10K KM since service.

Obviously it couldn't have been no oil since last service.

So bocor along the way.

No engine oil car can still drive??

Sorry unker noob

Old engine oil also can feel not so nice to drive.

Dry engine oil don't feel anything??

What dimwit, your car you also need to do self check maintenance. Then your driving license is lesen terbang?

Who salah?

Fuyo, so now u is old cock already? >60 years old already?

Few scenarios.

1. Ignore Low Oil level warning. This warning will pop up before start and after start constantly. Very irritating on European cars and distracting on Japanese or Korean cars.

2. Oil filter may not be tightened enough. Slow small leak occured during driving. That's why no leak when parked.

3. Engine problems. Oil may have escaped via PCV to the intake. Check for oil traces.

The mechanic. He didn't fill the engine with new oil after draining the old. Engine oil doesn't evaporate just like that..

engine oil sensor rosak?

No. I learned to maintained the family cars since 11 years old. Taught by mechanic friends and dad's friends during their family gatherings. Other kids all played with their Lego's or remote RCs but I jot down everything on the notebook.

Lol, dont talk cock la. When u say >35 years old, all >3 decades car old dont have 10k or 7.5k service interval.

Then why TS doesn’t want to blame Mazda SC?

He sounded like he is also to blame

Exactly, temperature and noise would've been a huge issue even if the indicators didn't light up.

Also, the TS didn't state which year the car is manufactured.

Never mentioned how he/she check the engine oil, never mention serviced using which oil, never mentioned where he/she bought the car from.

Seems like alot of information is omitted for a clear decision or root cause to be identified.

Engine failure Mazda like quite common

Gen alpha now good with latest tech , soc med etc etc


But when it come to simple thing like check engine oil , check tyre air pressure , check coolant level check indicator light all say is not their job, its service job

Or worse , my father help me all the time

tip top condition, female owner, service on time ,seat cover never open,still virgin

Lady owner?

leakage of 4-5 litre of engine oil sure can be spotted easily, if no then refer to Mazda SC

he tot red warning lights is early xmas lights

BM is the previous gen of Mazda 3.

Boss, condom leakage easy to spot or not?

If u read the post it says he used his own brand of engine oil. Probably he did his own maintenance, replaced his own engine oil

ini wa tatau, u kerja in 2feidei port should have more experience

Mazda no low engine oil pressure indicator?

The power of Skyactive engine 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

i take good care of my car my ass.
oil level need to be check regularly.

If he use bold engine oil, sure no problem.
Anyway this guy ownself wrong + something is wrong with the car already la.
The car already makan engine oil + owner negligence + never open bonet to check maintenance item = disaster.
If any one of the above ok, the car won't kebabom like this.

Heard some old timer mazda ownere here said they changed engine oil but some parts no change/longer service interval to change in the 5 years free service and warranty.

Dont remember was it oil filter or gearbox oil transmission or something.

The engine or gearbox will eventually run into some issues once the warranty and free service ends.

Sounds like merc and bmw style. The more important/expensive servicing thing will be delayed/put on longer interval to reduce the servicing cost to the dealer/consumers. But at the expense of the engine/gearbox lifespan will be shorter after the 5 years period.

its skyactive tech, burn away all the injin oil to the sky actively so no need to deal with old oil..saving the environment and mechanic time

majda the best

tale as old as time.

just like last time when i do tech support in company IT dept....
"i dint do anything, i was using my laptop, walk bck from meeting room to my desk, no drop no ngth, the screen just crack."

right.........
now normally such case, i wont even care much &just claim insurance, cuz every laptop got purchase insurance.
but because i dun like liars, i pulled the cctv footage of him slamming the screen shut with his mouse inside.
quote for manufacturer replacement cost, submit the video evidence, ask HR to deduct from his pay.

If forgot can run almost 10K KM without engine issue or the owner noticing?

LoL. Cheap car can last longer than the conti.

Toyota SC will return all engine oil bottle, AT fuel bottle, air filter, brake pad, etc whatever they replaced during the service.

Last time I replaced engine mounting also they returned the old ones for me, now my store room all have my previous parts..

Why never name the oil brand

boycott

Put in soap, then blow air and check

5 year maintenence by Bermaz?

engine oil selection not user problem

Just no way can drive with no engine oil. Something doesn't add up. There will be warning signs long before.

Maybe deliberately drained before sending to service?

There is no way the owner cannot notice it when the engine is bone dried. Engine sound will be very very rough! Source: personal experience. I was young and dumb.

use own third party oil or everything let SC handle?
If use own brand oil memang padan muka

if you go in to his post, he mentioned that he will manual check the oil level every 1k km. i mean not many people will check their oil level so frequent.
do you check your oil level every 1k km?

check oil level every 1k km.
no warning lights.

if running dry ; your engine wont last another 10k mileage

maybe 300 500km with high speed already k thx bye



or kena sabo/prank lo ..use siphon sux all the oil ..lol

I did when the car was new and paid from first bonus payment. After several years later, only once a month.

he mmg old timer

Why so susah. Buy ev just pakai and buang

*new enjin*

engine oil low warning lights not on ??

No warning light? Maseda so lau yiah? Even H ada. Unless wimmin driver, geng isi petrol never serbis, OKU, understand-la.

EV also have maintenance lor.

If really clueless about maintenance, don't buy any car. Use the public transportation instead.

puik my conti last longer than his masda lol

the story details make no sense with lots of question
so can only speculate.
even cheap EO will not cause no oil situation. hehe he blame the oil

i would say he is like layman blur sotong type

Low Oil Warning Lights
The main warning light you'll see is the Oil Pressure Warning Light, which looks like an oil can or a genie lamp with a drop coming out . This light is usually red and is a sign of a serious, urgent issue


This post has been edited by Momo33: Nov 9 2025, 03:15 PM

i cek monthly.
more than 1k usage

since it makes 0 sense

Consider his post a troll post.

i've seen a mazda sales advisor mentioning this part in the user manual, its very unusual but it is how it is

Low quality oil?
Piston ring worn out?
Engine oil cap loose?

Ok.

Skyactive yengine tech is higher fuel compression ratio Higher stress to the engine to get more power and range/fuel efficient.

If the fuel and air compression ratio lari sikit due to some wear and tear or error…theres also higher risk of engine failure compared to other usual NA engines.



Same thing with turbo tech ler. It will put more strain on the engine to crank more power. Obviously the engine lifespan will reduce compared to the usual boring underpower NA engine.

Even the owner no blame the car

But some ktard here all jump to conclusion say car issue topkek

Also this is previous gen Mazda 3 released on 2013, so quite old car, mileage also probably high

This post has been edited by ZeneticX: Nov 9 2025, 08:09 PM

2025 dy, ayam sure the dashboard will show written warning like "eh, tarak minyak liao, stop enjin wei!" instead of 1980's type of symbol, kan?

When EO is low, there will be a notification, no ?

Road side mech or SC ?

Anyway not my engine, not my problem. More like user.problem.

1) wear cd like normal.
2) apply minyak kapak on the cd
3) wear 2nd cd over the first cd.

> If didi sakit, inner cd leaks
> If mei mei sakit, outer cd leaks.

Boss yhtan, spotted another experienced lao jiao, see or not?

My bro in law used to drive his civic 130-150km/hr on highway. Even when bring me and my parents in his car for long travels.

Fast fwd 10 yrs later the car sat indefinitely on his car porch. He said need to do engine overhaul/new engine transplant or whatever. No money/budget.

If less lanyak drive like normal im sure the engine would tahan until now with normal servicing/replacing wear and tear.

Which gen Civic and mileage? Honestly modern engine with proper maintanence very less likely need to overhaul engine. At most just replace all the belt and gasket

Overhaul is for really old engine or some topkek conti engine

This post has been edited by ZeneticX: Nov 9 2025, 08:32 PM

Sounds like BS no leaks nothing works magically until found out no oil inside but before finding out no warning signs at all topkek

Got ppl sabo his car coupled with engine oil sensor failure.

the low oil preasure code would be in the ecm memory. mazda need only to cucuk the diagnostic port and it iwll show the 1st time the low oil preasure warning came on.

correct. it should come up like this



maybe the driver think the coolant bottle was the engine oil and see red colour liquid level very high and thought the car gave a false error message

This post has been edited by akagidemon: Nov 9 2025, 08:45 PM

Or mistake ingat petrol level low.

either someone sabotaged him or he really sohai hear weird knocking also no check car

i think so too..cannot be evaporate like that. think about it. what ever lousy engine oil also won't like that la. kosong inside

yes, low engine oil will hear noise from engine already

The car is Mazda 3 BM. Not sure if will show message like this

Your pic showing Mazda 3 BP which is current gen

This post has been edited by ZeneticX: Nov 9 2025, 09:27 PM

Why sound like using EO other than what is from SC during warranty?

Now only cry victim?

Mazda engine oil low reserve tak da error code pop out????

RM150k car like that lousy meh?

This person very sus la, tak cerita whole picture i think

This post has been edited by submergedx: Nov 9 2025, 09:32 PM

correct. i thought it was the newest version. the BM version has the normal low oil preasure icon. the teko with genie

2013 - 2017 car. Is previous gen Mazda 3 not the latest

This post has been edited by ZeneticX: Nov 9 2025, 09:37 PM

Mazda sold hundreds of thousands car worldwide every year, not known to have this issue.

This is one sided story, better to take with a pinch of salt.

This post has been edited by icemanfx: Nov 9 2025, 10:08 PM

that why i say ICE only can buy toyota.

those manufacturer not making money one, the creditor knockin on door one, usually will pull some funny trick to cut cost here and there, the worst affected one might even pull a fast one on their customer to increase repair revenues?

This post has been edited by Penamer: Nov 9 2025, 10:13 PM

Guy never check his engine oil level / meter on the dash? Dude probably messed around and damaged the engine now trying to make story up for warranty claim

This post has been edited by thxxht: Nov 9 2025, 10:13 PM
