2001 Mazda MPV Minivan Mileage: Approximately 99,000 **Maintenance Summary - Routine oil changes every 5,000 miles. Transmission Flush every 45,000. (Two flushes so far over the life of the vehicle) - No varnish buildup in transmission gearbox or torque converter. Coolant flush every 6 seasons (3 year intervals - California seasons consist of "Hot" and "Cooler"). New radiator installed in February of 2011. **Wearable items Maintenance - New tires in January of 2012 - Approximately 7,000 miles since replacement - rotated after 5,000 miles when I put new brakes on. New Battery, headlights and brake lights in Summer of 2012 New Brakes in September of 2012 (Approximately 2,000 miles since replacement) ** DAMAGE to Car Rear passenger side door - scraped and slightly dented Other small little dings in front passenger door (size of a penny) ** Corrective Maintenance needed to be performed: The van has a slight coolant leak. I am not sure exactly where its coming from, but I suspect the water pump. Our plan is to keep the expansion tank filled (with de-mineralized water) until we plan to get rid of the car. I have been checking the coolant reservoir every week to make sure levels are where they need to be. **Overall interior appearance The interior has aged quite well. We perform an annual steam clean of the carpets immediately following the summer beach season. **General Ride and Comfort The ride of the car is quite smooth. The alignment is perfect and both air conditioning units (front and rear) work great. I replace the cabin filter every four years and there is no mildew smell at all out of the vents when the A/C units are used. The onboard entertainment system works well (VHS tape player) and the radio/CD player system does too. the minivan has custom OEM rims sized for P205/65/R15 tires and has lived in a garage for approximately 9 1/2 out of the 11 years we have owned the vehicle; so the paint job isn't oxidized.
