Consumer Review Video - 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata Grand Touring 2.0L 4 Cyl.

Common problems and easy repairs on a 2016 MX-5 Miata

The 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata Grand Touring is a difficult vehicle to maintain when compared to other similar models. The cabin air filter is tough to reach behind the glove box. You must remove many panels, bolts, the trim, and disconnect many connectors in order to pull out this glove box. You must pry back the wheel well lining in order to reach the parking light. The lining is tight to the vehicle. You must pull off a panel underneath the vehicle in order to reach the oil drain plug. Removing this panel is tough, as you must work upside-down while underneath the vehicle to do so.

Some things are easier on the 2016 MX-5 Miata Grand Touring. Changing the engine air filter is a breeze. The fasteners you have to disengage unlatch easily allowing you to quickly lift the cover. The oil dipstick is easily accessible in the middle of the engine bay. You won’t have to reach far to remove or replace the dipstick. Removing the reverse light is no problem, as you only have to reach behind the rear bumper to access the bulb.
