I  have just paid £499 for 3 year servicing and Breakdown cover. Considering what they do at any servicing - change a few flters and the oil and mess with the ECU its all a bit expensive.
Probably create more problems than they fix. It seems that the mechanics at the Mazda garages are not very well trained in the new Skyactive's, but then that probably applies to most makes and dealerships , despite all the hype they put out and calling them 'technicians'.
