Need more info about 2012 Mazda 2 oil changes? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our expertise goes beyond tires. We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. We couldn’t put it better than our technician, Brianna. She likes to explain to customers that, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”
Your 2012 2’s oil should be changed according to Mazda’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your 2 in the above table. Outside of Mazda-recommended oil change intervals, your 2 may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Mazda if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, enjoy off-roading, or drive at low speeds for long distances. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Mazda 2. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
