2001 Mazda Millenia P review from North America
"A lot of car for the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I purchased my 2001 Mazda Millenia in 2002 with 15000 miles on it and I have 90000 miles on it now. I have been very punctual with the scheduled maintenance and I ALWAYS go through a Mazda dealership for ALL of my maintenance. When the dealer recommended I replace something, I always took their advice to be safe. I've had many people tell me that I don't have to go through the dealership for maintenance... any place that has ASE certified mechanics are qualified to work on my car. This may be true, but all I know is that all of my service was done by a Mazda dealership and I haven't had any major issues or any problems outside of scheduled maintenance or normal wear/tear. I'm glad I went with the 2.5L V6 because the timing belt is changed out at 100K miles verses 60K miles on the 2.3L V6 or the Miller Cycle engine found on the S model (timing belt replacement as noted in the owner's manual).
General comments?
The only complaint I have is that I wish the car had more headroom... my sons are both 6 feet tall and extra headroom would be nice.
