I regret to learn of your father, my friend. Best of luck with your Evoque. 😁

The type you possess determines the cost, as WD manufactures a variety of lubricants that are generally costly.

You managed to submit it just before noon.

I own it on my SL, although there is no option to enable or disable it.

I could provide commentary, but the adage "Glass Houses and Stones" causes me to hesitate.

A friend in Liverpool had similar sounds, which were ultimately identified as originating from the harmonic balancer, at around the same mileage.

Consult with Kev at Goldcrest.

Thank you everybody for your responses. Mazda UK responded and essentially indicated that they were disassociating themselves from the matter. Not covered by warranty, suggesting it was due to normal wear and use. I have had three VW Golfs before to the Mazda and two Seats before that, and I have never seen any difficulties with brake rust within the first two years. Comparable yearly mileage as well. My current and former residences are not in proximity to the sea, and while I do not accumulate a significant number of yearly miles, I use my vehicle often and with much enthusiasm when road conditions allow. I will take the vehicle for an extensive drive on many familiar winding routes and thoroughly test the brakes by progressively increasing the braking force to see the effects. Thus far, I have determined that executing forceful braking in a straight trajectory is steady and progressive, and the brakes seem to be as robust as they have ever been. It is possible that the corrosion may resolve; we will see. I must express my disappointment with Mazda's answer, which I will include into my decision when selecting my next vehicle, likely next year.

Significantly pitted, with a noticeable reduction in the shining region where the brake pads make contact, particularly on the rear left side. I have been using the brakes more forcefully in recent days, however there is no discernible improvement in my vision. It is possible that Mazda may want the dealer to provide photographs of the discs if they are contemplating a warranty replacement. If the dealer has correctly characterised the problem and confirmed the need for disc replacement, the procedure should ideally go efficiently and expeditiously. If the dealer has not correctly represented the condition of the brake discs, then is a separate matter.

I would have assumed that 20,000 miles is quite premature for a rear disc to need replacement, but I am uncertain if this was due to disc wear or corrosion. I will provide updates on the process and would welcome opinions about the reasonableness of a warranty replacement in my situation, as well as any comparable experiences people may have with the rear brakes.

As my vehicle approached its second anniversary, I scheduled a service appointment at my local Mazda shop. The vehicle had accumulated just 10,700 miles. I reluctantly scheduled the appointment due to my previous difficulties with this dealership; but, I received two years of complimentary service at no additional cost when I purchased the vehicle, prompting me to go. The service was satisfactory, although it was marred by persistent communication challenges similar to those seen before; the service department was almost inaccessible by phone, sometimes resulting in calls ringing out before Reception intervened to take a message for information relay or a callback request. Later in the afternoon, I received a call informing me that the automobile was ready for collection. Upon my arrival, I was informed that the vehicle was prepared for departure; but, an issue related to the rear brakes was identified during the EVHC (electronic vehicle health check), and the findings were advisory. The report was not yet accessible, but they assured me it will be sent subsequently. In my haste, I seized the keys and departed without more enquiries. The health check revealed that the rear discs were rusted, necessitating replacement, along with the brake pads, as per standard practice. They provided estimates for the replacements using either authentic Mazda components or parts obtained from other sources. Initially, I felt astonishment since the automobile was under two years old and had accumulated little mileage, despite never being kept idle for extended periods without being driven. Surprise transformed into frustration when the situation became clear, although I spent many days to contemplate before taking action. I also had the opportunity to inspect the rear discs myself, and there seems to be some rust present. The adequacy for necessitating replacement is a separate inquiry (I am not a technician). My frustration stems from the fact that, although I acknowledge that brake discs are subject to wear and regarded as consumables, I would anticipate this occurring over a somewhat extended timeframe and/or greater miles. Acceptable deterioration, if you like. Given the car's low mileage and youth, I find it difficult to categorise the replacement of the rear brake discs as a result of "fair wear and tear." In my opinion, brake discs should have a far longer lifespan than this. I believe the fundamental issue is the usage of inferior components. Today, I returned to the dealership, since I find telephonic communication too cumbersome. I was informed that brake discs and pads are not covered under warranty, and they have never replaced any under warranty. I articulated the aforementioned rationale and my perspective that it need to be addressed as a warranty replacement matter. They dismissed my concerns and instructed me to communicate directly with Mazda. I did not go without obtaining a phone number for Mazda. Upon returning home, I contacted Mazda UK and did not receive the same information provided by the dealer. The representative acknowledged that the necessity for brake disc replacement appeared premature; however, she lacked expertise in the matter. She assured me that she would escalate the issue to the relevant department, and someone would respond within a week. I will await their reaction. My vehicle operates well, and the parking brake seems to engage and disengage without complications. The hill hold function works well, and the overall braking performance is satisfactory and progressive. The forum discussion below does not clarify if the maintenance was performed under warranty or whether the member incurred costs for the service, and the mileage is almost double that of my vehicle.

Totally get that! I was a bit unsure about buying something without seeing it first, but I ended up getting a Mazda CX-5 from Grimes a couple of months back. The only little issue was that the delivery truck couldn’t squeeze down my street (it’s a narrow Victorian terrace!), so they had to unload around the corner. The driver was polite and handled everything professionally. Car was spotless, and the price... well I couldn’t find anything similar for under £10k elsewhere.

I first overlooked the red tint; nevertheless, gearbox oil should not be red. ZF oil initially has a green hue, which transitions to a brownish tint with time.

Remove the starter and inspect the flywheel rivets for any signs of loosening. petroleum leakage I suspect the rear crank seal is leaking; was it replaced during the timing chain installation?

Your article lacks sufficient information for others to provide relevant advise.

If you want quality components check mbclassics.de Niemoller Mercedes and German Ebay.

The decision is solely in your hands. It is possible that the issue is not with your compressor, but rather with the desiccant and obstructed filters. With a price tag of $150, there is really nothing to risk (except from your mental well-being).

There are really AMK kits available. What problem are you attempting to resolve?
