I put a lot of maintenance into this vehicle over the years. It's always a problem coming up. I'm tired of it and Nissan.

$7,700 transmission is a lot for a 16 year old vehicle.

I got all the recommended maintenance.
their recommended maintenance schedule is suicidal. i think they do this intentionally cause they own a majority stake in jatco, a cvt company. so they try to have their transmissions last a vague "lifetime of the part" instead of for the life of the whip like it should. also nissan's jatco cvts are trash to begin with, they're likely to go bad even if you religiously maintained it. subarus have jatcos too and they don't suck, i wonder why lol.

What do you think about the Carmax warranty?
When I got my 3 series back in 2016 I got it with a 3 year warranty with BMW so any issues I took that shyt right in, they fixed it, gave me a loaner in the mean time and I got my shyt back in a few days

Same thing with the tires

I pay extra for piece of mind

I'm not sure how it would work with Carmax but when I'm ready to sell this I'm probably gonna sell it through them

Seems like a good combo.

I was thinking at least 2018. Don't want it too old.


Is Mazda up there with Toyota and Honda as far as reliability?


Yes I did.

Mazda is more reliable than Honda now
