Mazda CX5 Oil Change

[@skyline5354]

This guy actually cares what he’s doing. It’s the little things like cleaning the oil reside with brake cleaner on the drain plug and after he puts on the filter etc. and then even spraying the rubber grommets. Dude keep up the good work!

[@garagepursuits8158]

thanks for the kind words. this is how I work on cars though, I just feel that if I take care of them they will take care of me😅

They are great SUVs, got my 2016 to nearly 300 000km with only reg maintenance, 3 rear wheel bearings, and a complete brake discs / pads job around 160k. No rust at all on the body, and I live in Quebec (snow / salt / gravel..) Wife has a 2021 CX5 and it is rock solid too

[@DJ_Stephens]

Thank you for this. I just bought a 2021 CX5 Carbon Edition and I got very intimidated by the shroud on the bottom of the chassis. WIth this video I feel more comfortable working on my car after my mechanical warranty expires

[@garagepursuits8158]

there is nothing to worry about, this car is extremely easy to service. I only have 9k on it now so I cant show any other service at this time.

[@Americafirst-i8q]

I used to work for a Mazda dealership and drop engines out of the Mazda 3

[@golfwipe]

3.14 Use a plastic cup over the old filter and it won’t pour out all over.

[@donh8833]

On the mazda forums, one of the things they worry about is cylinder scoring. Apparently the 0W20 is too thin to cling to the cylinder walls causing ring scoring of the walls. The manual says you can safely use 5W30 in hot conditions. This will cling better to the cylinder walls at the cost of slight mpg reduction.

[@1vw4me]

Meh Dude!! So glad you made this new video on how to change the oil, and showed everything I asked for in the 1st oil change video. Sizes, parts, etc. Thx!

[@dwendt44]

The Mazda filter has no ADBV, not needed here, so most all oil will drain out of filter. I ALWAYS change filter first, less messy. I also fill the filter with oil to reduce chance of dry starting. My 'maintenance minder' was set wrong by dealer. I reset to 5000 miles. The Fram UG 7317 fits great-it's a better filter. Magnetic drain plug installed. IF necessary, turn over the drain plug gasket and re-use. I know, they don't like that but the engine doesn't care and it works.

[@garagepursuits8158]

thanks for the advice , and thanks for watching

[@Manzo98_]

Fram filter is proven to be the worst filter to put on a car. Build quality is not all that great. Look it up on KZbin you’ll see

[@dwendt44]

@@Manzo98_ Provably wrong, There are many filters that are way worse than the orange can. Purolator filters have a history of torn media. Many off brand filters do not filter as well as the basic orange Fram. KZbin is full of biased opinion and fact free comments.

[@goinpostal51]

@@Manzo98_ The Fram Ultra Guard (UG), is a good filter. The orange Fram, not so much.

Excellent video my dude. Quick question, may I ask where you placed your hoist-lifting arms? Did you place them on the cross member or in the pinch weld designed for jack stands?

[@russellsdrumsandeverythingelse]

So my question is about changing the transmission fluid and what’s the best way on a 2019 cx5 55,000 miles and I definitely believe in changing this fluid 💯Thank you 👊

[@garagepursuits8158]

easy way? if you drain the trans pan about 4.5 liters will comes out, so drain it , top off fluid , then drive about 500-1000 miles drain the pan again, change trans filter and gasket . top off fluid. that should be sufficient

[@dankerr1145]

Great video, do I have to reset the computer so I know when to change it next time, 7,500 miles??

[@MimicMan0324]

Thank you for the thorough review! Could you leave the plastic shield off or is it necessary to put it back on since it is on the smaller side. I do live in Minnesota and we have lots of road salt if that makes a difference. Thanks again!

[@garagepursuits8158]

I would leave it on, most underpanels are for aero dynamic purposes, they allow the air to flow freely under the vehicle. There's a possibility it could cause a wind noise too.

[@euphoricjellybean]

Leave it on please. Especially since you do have to deal with road salt. It can severely compromise the life of your vehicle.

[@131601]

Details matter and you sure take care of the details…….nice job and thank you !

[@losopadre971]

New CX5 owner and I have the NA 2.5 PF, in your video you said Na gets 0/20 does that apply for the 2022 models and what oil como is recommended. Thanks for your help and thanks for posting the video.

[@janandrewfrancisco5978]

nice video! very good service. mind if i ask if youd recommend using other oil filters such as amsoil or should i stick with the oem thats made by tokyo roki/mazda?

[@ChicagoRob2]

The Mazda OEM filters are made by Denso and are very high quality. There is one other filter I like, which is the MicroGard Select. Whip City Wrencher did a video on this filter and found it to be extremely well made. Personally, I buy my OEM filters at my local Mazda dealership for around $12, but the Microgard is cheaper. Either way, you can’t go wrong. BTW, I forgot to mention the Premium Guard Extended Life filter available at O’Reilly’s, which is the same as the MicroGard Select.

Clean the oil off the engine cover. U got hand prints all over. Just saying. First thing people will notice when the hood is popped open. Little details make the job.

great job! clean and nice

[@zackied596]

The drain plug screw on mine is so tight i cant loosen it with a typial socket wrench. Not sure how to loosen it.

[@ronl9357]

What's the oil filter wrench you use?

[@jayemark708]

When was you’re first oil change? Did you do a new engine break in?

[@garagepursuits8158]

Its not required, but i did a break in service at 1,500mi

[@Weyco23]

Just bought a new 2022 CX-5. That plastic piece is going to be annoying to remove. My new 2021 Corvette has holes right where the filter and drain plug are. No plastic to remove. That is how it should be done.

[@garagepursuits8158]

Its not a big deal honestly. It keeps the bottom aerodynamic 👍😆

[@diegudr]

If you leave the plastic piece off, there will be the hole you are wanting.

[@prabhsingh3689]

Check cabin filter and lube all parts and check all fluid

[@Mau105]

not necessary to check the cabin filter at such low intervals, even 20 K is more than adequate

[@JesusIsLord7773]

not bad but i fully drain all my oil and even wash it a bit with new oil before putting the drain plug and filter.

[@Mau105]

you are wasting oil, long drain is already OCD

[@diegudr]

Was that a universal socket/oil filter wrench? Where did you get that?

[@Mau105]

that is good question, I just use large channel locks

[@fearnot82]

so for the drain plug, you always finger tighten it and then use a torque wrench to torque it to spec? 23 ft lbs. but if you dont have a torque wrench can you just use a 3/8th ratchet and do 1/4 (quarter turn) ?

[@garagepursuits8158]

Yeah, it just needs to be snug. Give a nice tightening without overdoing it. The oil filter is hand tight also. You shoulf be able to break it loose by your own strength. Or by minimal help of a tool.

[@harrypressman2]

We're sort of like twins. I'm about to do my second oil change at 6,000 km. I guess you drive a little more than me. So I noticed your new wheels now compared to your first oil change. They look great. Did you also installed your new springs?

[@garagepursuits8158]

hahah , yeah i drove a lot this year, i drove through a few states from California, nevada, utah and Arizona. I went to a few national parks.. Yes I installed corksport springs before summer time. thanks for checking out the videos, I appreciate it .

[@golfwipe]

10.10 I thought it only held 4 1/2 quarts after I put in five it still showed 1 quart low and had to add another half a quart to bring it up to a half a quart low, very nice video very nice shop.

[@Montana270]

Nice! I use the Castrol Edge in my cx3 too! It seems to burn about 1/3 of a quart between changes. It has since it was new... this seem normal? I love the car... 25k miles going strong😁

[@diegudr]

Yeah no need to use OEM. Especially if you are tossing them every 4k.

[@thetechlibrarian]

I’m learning as much as I can about Mazda coming from Toyota they actually value flow rate over filtration so you do want to use the OEM filter pick up wipes but they do offer a TRD filter which is a higher quality. Does Mazda offer anything like that that’s OEM

[@earnhardtfan77]

Do you think the oil should be the mazda brand oil with the moly in it. Or should fulll synthetic oil be fine

[@garagepursuits8158]

A good reputable brand synthetic oil will be fine. Just use correct weight. The owners manual list all oil specifications it must meet. 👍

[@earnhardtfan77]

[@dingusfuzzklonnkt2755]

​@@earnhardtfan77the moly products are worth the money. If you have the turbo version or plan on keeping the vehicle into the 200k range the moly products are going to help you get there in my experience. Try them out and look at the difference in the oil when you change it, the breakdown at 5k is barely noticeable.

For people in the military, i know there are hobby shops on base to use, a long time ago i did oil changes on the floor in my apartment parking lot. I used ramps and was carefull not to make a mess. You can buy an oil drain bucket and when you are done you can drain it for free at a autoparts store.

@@donzheng7068 most modern cars dont require lubrication of the chassis or suspension. all ball joints are self contained or covered by rubber boots. I would only spray nuts and bolts with penetrating oil if you live somewhere where it snows.

When car reaches 30,000 especially Northern cars with all that rock salt they use on the roads its best to use a pressure cleaner on ALL rubber areas with joints...then use a good rubber silicon spray to help protect the rubber..if not the rubber breaks down ,and when millage gets high the car will sometimes Squeek where those rubber joints are.

I bought a few of them from the Mazda dealer and they got mixed in with my golf cart filters and look exactly the same, so I thought that I had missed placed them and I was going to reuse the old filter, once I remove the filter and saw how small it was I went through my golf cart filters and sure enough I found several of them that said Mazda on them, the filters I got from the dealer were made in Mexico, I called the dealer and wanted the ones made in Japan if they were available? He gave me another part number and I asked him where it was made? He said that one came in a box and had a washer that came with it and was made in Thailand! Then I went to the Mazda website And found a third filter, so I called Mazda corporate and they didn’t know if that one was made in Japan and they’re going to get back with me, I would sure like to run a Japanese filter on my Japanese car.

I think you forgot to mention to check the gasket seal from the oil filter if it got stuck to avoid double gasket. It could leak oil.
