i just got a call from ken shepherd about the oil warning light issue. he said that it is not being experienced by all cars and is being treated on a "as need" basis. so no big recall. if it appears, then you have to call the service dept and ask for the part to be replaced. but ken did emphasise that the light did not mean that anything is wrong with the car. it is just the light coming on due to movement of the oil.
i might say it comes on and have it replaced at the 10,000km service. i will sleep better at night. i don't want the warning light coming on if nothing is wrong.
hope it helps.

Mazda Australia are ripping us off when you consider the cost of the car in Japan & USA.
Australian dollars

RX-8 (USA) $42,000
All for the same car, go figure.!!!

That doesn't matter.
I was saying the servicing and warranty will be incorporated into the price.
Ours are $61,996 + ORC
More importantly NZ is the home of the 4 Rotor E-Shaft :D

Yeah, but how far can you drive in 3 years in NZ? I'd think it would be unlikely that many Kiwis would turn more than 50,000km in 36 months. "Unlimited kilometers" is pretty much a marketing spin when the entire country has less than 60,000km of paved roads. :p
