I'm not a huge fan of smallish diesel cars, unless they're European cars.

Mazdas overall are solid cars, quality and reliability wise.

I can say positive things about Korean diesels. Mazda service charged me 2.5k for a diesel fuel system test that never found a fault. They ultimately found the fault by finally taking my suggestion and plugging in a multi-meter and finding a short. they still charged me the 2.5k. theres a particular word that comes to mind, and it rhymes with runts.

I would have refused to pay at that point. 2.5k to not find something is ridiculous.
