    The door locks, when I push button, reacts very fast, so something is going out soon.

    No lube, just contact spray on switches.

    Likely the actuator. They use gears and an electric motor. Probably the motor is going bad. Common issue on Mazdas. You could try cleaning up the electrical connections to see if it helps, but since this isn't a common problem, my guess is replacement is your best bet.

    You could also ignore it. :D As long as your key still locks/unlocks the door, the only downside of a total failure is inconvenience.
