Mazda 3 service guide - how to service 2012

Quick video I made showing how to do a service on a Mazda 3. This one is a 2012 but it’s the same for nearly all of them, newer or older cars may take a different oil but the procedure is the same
Hope this helped someone out
Thanks for watching

I'm about to service my Mazda 3 2010 model for the first time, can't afford to have someone else do it and also it's time I learned. Mine is basically the same as this car, I'm going to be checking over this video heaps, cheers!

Hey br0 sweet ride for the missus and great guide. Will you be planning to do a transmission fluid guide too?

[@Nintendelaide]

Thank you so much for the sharing mate! Big Thumb-Up from SA!

[@DakotaHDrums]

So cool. Thanks for your help 🎉

[@MelissaCanonge]

Hello. Where is the MAP Sensor? Do you have a video on where to find it?

[@christopherlamb3817]

Thanks for the video man it’s a good one. I’m confused though. My car’s manual says 0W-20 not 5W-40. Please help me understand what’s going on here.

[@leosheppard8517]

Ambient heat, that your car is operating in. See the manual… specifically the owner maintenance section > engine oil. there should be a graph with all the ambient temperatures you are likely to operate in… temp indicates the SAE oil grade recommended.

[@MrPancake777]

Great and informative video! But what’s the engine size for this car?

[@foordoffroad8915]

I think it’s 1.8

[@leosheppard8517]

Standard- 2.0L Upgraded SP25 models- 2.5L

Bro, have you recorded the egr cleaning video of the hilux?

[@foordoffroad8915]

Yeah mate recorded edited ready to upload and the app crashed and lost the whole lot, was not happy about it

[@elenadominguez7101]

Damn I want my Mazda to sound like that 👀 Is it just a muffler delete or?

[@foordoffroad8915]

Yeah I just cut out the center muffler

[@ianjohnson6012]

Hi..what about the fuel filter, I have a 2012 as well but can't locate the fuel filter..cheers

[@foordoffroad8915]

Either in tank filter or under some plastic guards near the right rear wheel

[@shandebuggam8783]

Do you change the automatic transmission fluid ?

[@coolzdevin777]

Look up videos on how to do it. People who say "dont do it, it'll last its life time" all fluent gets old and losses its heating purposes.. thats why in manual cars you also change trans fluid every 20k-30k. Just get the right brand and you'll be alright

[@leosheppard8517]

Italian tune up at 0:20 lol

[@umakariharu8035]

Were you hitting limiter at around 5k? Cause my skyactiv hits it about 7k. I'm confused haha

[@foordoffroad8915]

When in park it’s lower then any other gear on the 3 No idea why

[@umakariharu8035]

@@foordoffroad8915 I guess I didn't really register it was in park haha. I don't know why I thought it was in gear baha 🤣🤣 I bet mine does the same thing

[@GoranSlika]

Helpful content, though the shot of you under the car at around 2:46 gave me claustrophobic anxiety

[@m.jackson0846]

Are you in Europe? I am in England, do I use 5w30 or 40?

[@foordoffroad8915]

The land down under mate Won’t make a difference, if you’ve got high km then go 5w40 but both oils will suit fine

[@alangonzalez5024]

lol getting high rpm in low temp wtf xD

[@foordoffroad8915]

It’s only a Mazda she’ll be right

[@alangonzalez5024]

@@foordoffroad8915 I wouldn't do that if I was you

[@foordoffroad8915]

@@alangonzalez5024 so don’t do that then
