| Not Ranked : 0 score Herzog Meier Mazda. Portland, Oregon. Have noted motor mounts, BPV, intake as visible mods in service notes. Did notice note spark plugs or HPFP internals or straight pipe. Cool with bringing in my own oil for change/inspection as long as 5-30 Recently brought the car in for smoking turbo with only TIP stocked out. Uninstalled AP as I always do beforehand, though this and TIP change seemed to cause my smoking to cease. No longer re-produceable with spirited driving and 40 minute idle. Noticed day before appointment. Dealer had car from 7-4 while investigating service bulletin, found nothing. Shuttle picked me up and brought me back, I was disappointed. 1.5 mile on odo btw from them, they told me they tested for smoking twice. They had already decided to waive any service fees since I've had oil changes and an insurance claim for radiator shroud damage done there. Said to keep them updated if I notice any changes.

| Not Ranked : 0 score North Park Mazda 9333 San Pedro Ave. San Antonio TX, 78216 I've had my K&N SRI, JBR RMM 88 duro, and my mud flaps installed there, all my oil changes 5w-30 full synthetic done there, when it's time for the tranny fluid they told me they will use the FoMoCo miracle juice no prob. Was told on the DL that they were cool with most bolt-ons but had issues with guys tuning wrong, blowing their engine, try to uninstall their AP's then bring it in and want a new engine under warranty, not gonna happen they say. Don't care what Cobb says they say they know when it's been tuned and untuned. I have an AP but I just use it for monitoring my live engine vitals. Wink, wink, I also leave my lights on a lot and need jumps, I'm such an airhead, or at least my dealership thinks so, I'm that big lovable guy that's always forgetting stuff. Anyways I haven't had one issue with warranty work at all, they fix whatever's not working and I sign some papers then I zoom-zoom outta there. Even the two techs I use drive speeds so I'm all good, love my NP Mazda!

I'll vouch for Bob Moore in OKC. I'm in right now and while I don't have anything done yet, I talked to one of the service managers and he said most mods are no big deal. Was told they don't like ECU flashing, but as far as intake, rmm, or STS or shifter bushings go,among other mods, they're no big deal. If you throw a cai on and suck up water you're sol, but as long as your mod doesn't directly cause something to fail, they'll work your warranty claim. One of the service managers currently owns a speed3 and other salesmen in the dealership have owned and modded in the past. Service manager I talked to was talking about mods he had planned for his speed and said he likes getting to feel out mods (ex. Shifter bushings) on customers cars to see if it's something he'd like to do on his. | |

| Not Ranked : 0 score Suburban Mazda of Sterling Heights 40331 Van Dyke Ave Sterling Heights, MI 48313 (586) 698-5200 Took my car in because the ac drain line was clogged and leaking all over passenger side. While I was there, asked Mark if they would be willing to do my VVT since I was getting stationed in MS and had no dealers close to base if i encountered a problem with it. I have 30k Miles and no signs of bad vvt. No problem at all. Great mazdaspeed tech too knows the cars very well. Service dept is extremely well managed. I have had good luck Called the guys at Troy asking the same thing and they sounded like they didnt want to be bothered and that it would cost me 150 to diagnose, and if they found a problem they would do the work on it. Even though the service tech at sterling heights had told me it would have to be done 3 months before. |

| Not Ranked : 0 score Continental Mazda Volvo (Continental Motors Alaska) 4800 Old Seward Hwy, Anchorage, Alaska 99503 Had my VVT and Turbo replaced with barely any questions asked at 63k miles (had it done in July 17, with warranty ending on 30th lol). The mechanic Chad is the one who helped me out. He somehow spotted me and came out and instantly looked at my car. He also told me what to say, so he can get me a new vvt kit! So I recommend to ask for Chad. As for modifications, you can basically go in full bolt on, and no one really cares. However, sometimes I see people who run meth kits, have some trouble. But Chad knows his cars, and he will try his best to get you to pay little or nothing. He is -the first I have met- an honest mechanic.

| Not Ranked : 0 score They have always completed recalls and TSB repairs without hesitation and helped me out with prices on maintenance and repairs out of warranty. When I had my rx8, I went in to have my eccentric shaft seal replaced. I looked up the job beforehand, and found that there was a TSB out that notified dealers of a new shop tool that cut the job down from about 12 hrs down to 2! When I brought it in they didn't argue, but said they never saw the TSB and would look into it. After about an hour he called me back and said he had the tool on order and would receive it the next morning. The next day they finished the job and said "thanks for informing us about the TSB, we have another person in for the same thing and we informed her about the new procedure and we saved her money"! Maybe they should have known about the TSB, but they didn't immediately turn me down and checked into my claim. Not many dealers will actually listen to customers.

Submitted by: iceman32crx Ferman Mazda 9809 E Adamo Dr Tampa FL 33619 (813) 623-6600 They have always completed recalls and TSB repairs without hesitation and helped me out with prices on maintenance and repairs out of warranty. When I had my rx8, I went in to have my eccentric shaft seal replaced. I looked up the job beforehand, and found that there was a TSB out that notified dealers of a new shop tool that cut the job down from about 12 hrs down to 2! When I brought it in they didn't argue, but said they never saw the TSB and would look into it. After about an hour he called me back and said he had the tool on order and would receive it the next morning. The next day they finished the job and said "thanks for informing us about the TSB, we have another person in for the same thing and we informed her about the new procedure and we saved her money"! Maybe they should have known about the TSB, but they didn't immediately turn me down and checked into my claim. Not many dealers will actually listen to customers.

However, they are a true diamond in the rough. WARNING: Given their size, they are NOT a Speed dealer so warranty work is not covered. However, if you're out of warranty... they are VERY mod friendly. They've put a number of parts on my car with great enthusiasm. I've also have never felt like I've been overcharged. Their Service Manager Ron is great at getting me in... sometimes the same day I call. Their master service technician, Dave is a Mazda national award winner multiple times over. He's bright, a perfectionist and fast. I can't say enough about Dave. So if you're in the area check them out... Submitted by: Will915 Suburban Mazda of Sterling Heights 40331 Van Dyke Ave Sterling Heights MI 48313 (586) 698-5200; Took my car in because the ac drain line was clogged and leaking all over passenger side. While I was there, asked Mark if they would be willing to do my VVT since I was getting stationed in MS and had no dealers close to base if i encountered a problem with it. I have 30k Miles and no signs of bad vvt. No problem at all. Great mazdaspeed tech too knows the cars very well. Service dept is extremely well managed. I have had good luck, Called the guys at Troy asking the same thing and they sounded like they didnt want to be bothered and that it would cost me 150 to diagnose, and if they found a problem they would do the work on it. Even though the service tech at sterling heights had told me it would have to be done 3 months before. _________________________________ North Carolina Submitted by: Dizzel Montgomery Mazda 6735 E Independence Blvd Charlotte NC 28212 Local 704-563-1510; Toll Free 1-800-223-5439 *All around friendly and helpful dealership light mods: ok heavy mods: unknown Submitted by: motherfnmonsta Hickory Mazda Mitsubishi 1775 catawba valley blvd Hickory NC 28602 Awesome cause I am a tech there lol _________________________________ New Hampshire Submitted by: TQJUNKIE; cdyer603 Grappone Mazda 506 State Rt. 3A Bow NH 3304 (800) 528-8993 Talk to Seth *see post for details _________________________________ New Jersey Submitted by: doubleflusher Crystal Mazda 220 Route 22 West Green Brook NJ 8812 service: (888) 575-8169 Submitted by: superskaterxes; Kdawg207 Hamilton Imports 2200 - 2201 Route 33 Hamilton Square NJ 8690 Phone: (888) 758-3668 _________________________________ New Mexico Submitted by: thanox2; xxandrossxx University Mazda 5150 Ellison.

I'm pretty sure he knew that I used to have an intake and race pipe, but he I replaced them before taking them in. The morning after I took the car in, they told they would replace it. They got the turbo in on a Monday (3 days after they said they would fix it) and had it done that afternoon. So 5 days to replace a turbo!

Service Manager Cliff is mod friendly and a sponsor of the local Ottawa Mazda Club. Heavily involved in the local enthusiast community, also the facilities of the dealership are by far the best I've seen from a Mazda Dealership. If you're local, I suggest joining the local OMC cause they offer great discounts to members.

They actually detailed my car for free once inside and out. Great people. Replaced any faulty things under warranty. They told me they did not think my mirror covers would get replaced (15k miles paint chipped mostly off) but that they would try and they contacted corporate mazda and got it approved. |

She has owned multiple modified Speed3's and is super easy to talk to. She clearly cared about the well being of my '09 Speed3. I've really only had basic maintenance performed, but she was aware of all my bolt-ons and would rather discuss them then argue about having them. Also has packaged deals and given me coupons/ discounts when possible. Overall great service and I use them whenever I'm not doing the work myself.

| Not Ranked : 0 score Thanks for this thread and putting the "state" list together. Seems like if one is on a road trip and in need of service away from home, that this should come in handy. Now if I can find in this forum some good tuning/custom shops to start putting a couple extras on the ride. |

| Not Ranked : 0 score I`ll put a good word in for: Freeway Mazda Surrey BC Canada They`ve done the majority of work on my car, from all the mounts in my sig with a good mention to sticking to a four hr quote on my diff brace and mount when it was closer to a 9hr job, and generally overall, do good work. I think I`ve only had to go back once for when I had an oil change and they put non synthetic in since thats the default apparently and I had no notes in my file and they still did that no charge on the fly once I got back there. Also, Steve in the parts dept used to rebuild turbo`s and is a good guy to randomly email.
