Is Your Mazda Due for an Oil Change?

Keeping your Mazda running smoothly and extending its engine life requires taking it to your Mazda dealer for a regular oil change. Clean oil will properly lubricate the components, limit friction and wear, and keep your engine in top running condition for thousands of miles. Below are ways to help you determine when your Mazda needs new oil. more Check if the Engine or Oil Light Is On When the oil light comes on, your Mazda needs new oil. The check engine light comes on when the oil pressure is low or the engine gets too hot. If the oil is old or dirty or there's not enough oil for lubrication, it will damage your engine. To keep all the parts well-oiled, follow your car's maintenance intervals in your owner's manual and bring your car to us for regular oil replacements. The Oil's Color or Consistency Has Changed As the oil flows through your engine, it becomes darker and thicker due to heat and contaminants. If the oil is no longer an amber-brown color, has turned brown or black, and is thick, it's old and dirty. Contaminated oil loses its ability to lubricate the engine parts properly. You Notice Oil Leaks If you see brown puddles under your car or an oily residue around your engine, your Mazda has an oil leak. Oil leaks can come from several points, such as the drain plug, oil filter, or engine gaskets. Get a leak fixed as soon as you notice it to prevent serious damage. You Smell Burning Oil If you smell burning oil around your car or inside the cabin, check for oil leaks. When leaking oil drips onto a hot part of the engine or exhaust system, it causes a burning oil odor. Your Engine Is Overheating As the oil in your engine ages, its ability to lubricate the engine parts diminishes. This will increase friction between the moving parts and cause your engine to overheat. If your car's engine temperature rises, ask one of our technicians to check why immediately to avoid further complications. You Hear Strange Engine Noises Engine oil stops metal-on-metal contact between the moving engine parts. When there isn't enough oil, the parts will start to grind against each other, and you will hear knocking or tapping noises. You Notice Excess Smoke From the Tailpipe While seeing light vapor from your exhaust during cold weather is expected, excessive smoke billowing out of your tailpipe could be a warning sign of more serious issues, such as an oil leak or a malfunctioning engine component. Maintaining your engine's health is as simple as following the oil replacement intervals in your Mazda's owner's manual. Call Auffenberg Mazda of O'Fallon in Shiloh, IL, today to book an oil replacement. Our team of experienced Mazda technicians knows what it takes to keep your engine in top shape.

7 Signs of a Faulty Ignition Coil

Every vehicle has at least one ignition coil. Some vehicles have multiple. However, even one faulty coil can make your car act strangely, making driving more difficult. Excessive engine vibrations, damaged spark plugs, moisture, and exposure to high temperatures can all make these coils fail. If you notice the signs that one of your coils is faulty, then visit your Mazda dealer to get the problem fixed ASAP. Here are seven of the most common signs you might have a faulty ignition coil. more 1. The Check Engine Light Is On The check engine light comes on when there's any kind of problem under the hood. So, it'll switch on if your ignition coil begins to fail. The light may illuminate even before your car starts, showing signs that there's something wrong, and it warrants an immediate trip to your local dealership. 2. The Engine Misfires When a coil is failing, it can make one of your cylinders fire incorrectly. This makes your engine misfire when you accelerate, idle, or abruptly stop the car. Misfiring can cause problems with other parts of your engine, shortening its lifespan and lowering your fuel economy. Even if your car only misfires once, visit the dealer to have the engine thoroughly examined. 3. The Engine Is Difficult to Start Because your coils play an important role in starting and powering the car, it may be hard to get the vehicle started when one of the coils is faulty. The engine might only take a little longer than usual to turn over, but it's still something you should never ignore. 4. The Engine Won't Start at All If your car only has a single coil, then the vehicle may not start when this coil begins to fail. The car definitely won't start if the coil has failed completely. 5. The Car Feels Less Powerful If your car seems less powerful than usual, then it may be because of a defective coil. Sluggish acceleration may not stop your car from working altogether, but it's definitely a problem you should investigate ASAP. 6. The Car Jerks If your car begins jerking during acceleration, then it's a tell-tale sign that something is wrong. The problem may be simple, such as a faulty coil, but it still warrants a trip to the dealer. 7. The Car Backfires Engines backfire because cars try to use more fuel than usual when there's something wrong under the hood. The car won't always burn up all of this fuel, so it travels through the exhaust system unburned and then detonates. You'll know this has happened if you hear a loud popping sound coming from your exhaust. Visit Auffenberg Mazda of O'Fallon in Shiloh, IL if your car has any of the problems above. We also provide regular maintenance to try to prevent issues with your coils and other parts of your car.
