Thank you for sharing the step by step. Now I'll be ready to do mine when it's needed. I like how you clean all of the parts that you disassembled to complete this task. It shows a person that pays attention to the details and takes pride in caring for his cars. Keep up the good work! I look forward to seeing more.

[@GarasiFelixDan]

Thank you sir

[@legpad5857]

I like how meticulous you are in your work, cleaning and doing things so accurately and carefully. I have a new (used) 2019 CX5 that need this done badly. I just always can never get 100%, not even 75% of all the old coolant out even after running the heater and getting the engine temp high which I do not like to do.

[@GarasiFelixDan]

Thank you . Very much appreciate your kind words 😁.

[@davidpancerz5820]

Hey FD, great to see a new video of yours featuring the Mazda. I'm your subscriber in Texas who owns two CX-5s, a 2014 model and the other a 2015. Since you hadn't done this service yet, I did a complete coolant flush to my 2014 car last summer. At 50,000 miles (not kilometers) I found this really wasn't necessary as the coolant that came out was as green and sweet smelling as the new FL22 that I put back in. Compare that to the transmission service I did where the fluid was brown and nasty. I took about a week to perform my coolant service as I used a radiator flush chemical that again wasn't needed at 50,000 miles. Once I drained the radiator as you show, I used compressed air to remove as much fluid from the system as possible. Then I added the radiator flush chemical and many gallons of distilled water. All during the week I'd drain the radiator and add more distilled water in order to get out all the antifreeze that was circulating in the engine and heater core. Once I was satisfied that all the old fluid was out I used a cool bit of kit that I had bought to service the radiators on my BMW motorcycles that don't care for ANY air in the system. Google UView Airlift Coolant Refill Tool. I used this tool and one of my large air compressors to literally suck in the new FL22 without introducing any air bubbles. Also cleaned my overflow reservoir just as you but my tank has two lines - one for Cold and the other for Hot. Another super video Felix! Looking for you to change out the water pump belt next (not the easier serpentine belt). Take care!

[@jonathandodd6712]

David Pancerz I too am FD's Texas Mazda guy! 2013 CX-5 in Grand Prairie!

[@GarasiFelixDan]

Thank you so much guys . I definitely will share more videos for us all. Appreciate your support and info tips.

[@renenowicki]

Got to get that water pump belt on the crank pulley and push/pull onto the smooth part of the water pump pulley. It will stay put once on there. Then turn the crank while pushing it over. Wear gloves and watch you don’t catch your fingers. Keep cranking. It will catch.

[@davidpancerz5820]

Yep, replacing that belt wasn't hard at all. It's mainly a space issue if you have large hands. And since I changed the spark plugs at the same time, the engine was much easier to crank over. Definitely helped getting that water pump belt on.

[@renenowicki]

David Pancerz i did plugs too. Didn’t occur to me to leave them out. Brilliant!

[@yovanilla]

Thanks Dan. I did mine today in our 2016 CX9. It's been about 10 years since I have done this (that long since I have owned a car during the service interval) so it was good reminder!

@@yovanilla Brilliant 👍🏼 thats what makes the longevity of the car

[@billyshears2286]

A great video Dan. Very helpful thankyou ..... A tip = to drain the reservoir, if you leave the radiator cap on when you remove the cockstop, the system will suck out the fluid in the reservoir while draining. You might need to squeeze the top radiator hose to help the fluid flow.

[@GarasiFelixDan]

thank you Sir. Noted.

[@mohdsyufian3952]

Hi , nice works .. but actually what happens at the SC is we did replace the coolant inside the engine so total amount coolant needed to be replace is almost 8 litres... this comment is regarding to all my recently customers showing this video and asking why it should be 8L i hope all of your viewers understand or you can make another content about it ... 👍 keep up your good work ...

Fantastic videos, Felix. Why do you do this on a shiny new car with 33,000 km is a mystery... Much appreciated👍👍

[@GarasiFelixDan]

it has been collecting dust since 2013 as i drove my other car for the daily , I have not driven it much and yet enjoy this cx 5 . So i though why not do a coolant / radiator maintenance just incase the old one fail and freezed up. But yeah now the car is 10 years and been enjoying it and driving it as my daily car.

[@queensapphire7717]

Yeah, I did a drain and fill of my transmission at 30K miles for the “Lifetime” (not) trans fluid. New Mazda FZ fluid is sky blue in color, what came out was filthy, brownish stuff, at 30k miles !!! Do not fall for this “Lifetime” or “Sealed” nonsense regarding fluids / lubricants. Changing is simple, and just replace the same amount you take out, plus 2-3 ounces for “stick around” amount on the sides of the catch basin, after measuring. Lifetime means life time of the warranty, for which after they can charge you $6000 for a remanufactured transmission.

[@agusdjauhar9376]

Thank you for the excellent content. Too easy with your complete instructions. Appreciate it. You have noted that this is not a complete coolant flush. What is complete coolant flush??

[@GarasiFelixDan]

Thank you again for the support. full coolant flush you have to drain all coolant from the engine block and to do that you have to uninstall the bottom part of the radiator hose .

[@TheSmartBean]

For indonesia, you can also use Shell Coolant Longlife Plus 30/70, which comply to JIS K 2234 as genuine mazda coolant (non silicate, non borates, non nitrite, non amines).

it dont matter. u can turn off and open the radiator cap to check or you can leave it close.

[@sebbbou5455]

[@timgifford4637]

Thanks for another excellent video. I would recommend draining the fluid from the lower radiator hose rather than the petcock, which, with age and heat can become brittle and break, which would not be good. Thanks again.

[@ericj6559]

Sometimes the capacities are a bit confusing. Just make sure to check the owners manual as mine states there are slightly different capacities depending on the VIN. Japan or Mexican built makes a difference.

[@GarasiFelixDan]

Right i would stock about 7litres of coolant. Some cars uses only 6litres and other may use about 7litres. As you dont want to be short on coolant if you are doing the service at home.

[@JY-tq4ir]

[@taichihead42]

Hi Felix Dan, in regards to the bleeding procedure on your Mazda and all Mazda's you state that owners should remove the radiator cap while bleeding the system. But won't coolant splash everywhere and make a mess out of my engine. As well as that, coolant get"s really hot very quickly and running the car for 5 minutes at 2,500 rpm would definitely have it boiling, especially if the fans kick in. I didn't see you doing this in the video.

[@GarasiFelixDan]

@@taichihead42 its normal to have some mess spillage while bleeding without the special Tool Spill free radiator filler cup / bucket. Just rinse it off with some water you all good to go. Unless you have the radiator spill free filler tool / bucket then you r save from the spillage mess. 👍🏼

[@taichihead42]

​​@@GarasiFelixDanIn the past Felix i have changed coolant on other cars and i never left the radiator cap off. It seems like a really dangerous thing to do and once that coolant gets hot it will shoot up out of the radiator and the spray will go every where. Running the engine checking for leaks and topping up the radiator when cold is far more sensible. Who came up with this idea to leave a radiator cap off a hot radiator also that funnel tool seems unnecessary as well. Unless radiators have changed since the 1980's.

I have 75,000 miles (120k km?) and I am not sure if I should do the flush or just the coolant replace like you do. Can you comment? If you think it will be worth doing a flush - can you tell me the extra steps to take? Also if I do a flush will I still need 5L or it will be more?

[@GarasiFelixDan]

To fully flush the cooling system , you will need to drain the coolant from the radiator and add flushing chemical diluted with distilled water and keep repeating (draining) until there are no more excess old coolant. Yes you will need more than 5 L of coolant to refill the system.

[@zen4517]

Hi Felix, want to ask you that is it ok to use other brand of common coolant (APM brand coolant) for Mazda car? as the shop owner use this instead of Mazda FL22 coolant..

I noticed you didn't burp your radiator, you put the cap on when starting your engine, if you leave it off it releases the air in the system, which in turn will not let the coolant get to critical parts of your system easily, and may result in the ac not blowing the correct temperature. I could be wrong and maybe you did burp the radiator and just didn't record it

[@GarasiFelixDan]

Untuk di video ini sy beli di dealer mazda langsung dan direkomendasi pakai mazda coolant yg ini kata dealer mazda komposisi formulanya hampir sama dengan fl22. Tapi yg sy baca baca dr forum luar spec coolant Fl22 formulanya anti freezenya tahan lebih lama sampai dengan 10 tahun dimana coolant dengan formula biasa hanya tahan sampai 5 tahun. Dan kalau tidak memakai fl22 mungkin hanya harus menggantikan coolantnya lebih awal saja periodenya supaya tidak terjadi penyumbatan / karat pada komponen mesin water pump dan radiator. Tapi untuk mesin skyactiv sangat direkomen untuk menggunakan fl22 dan kalau bisa dapat fl22 di mazda dealer beli aj fl22 ya.

[@thunderhype5972]

Hi bro, Is this consider a full flush or half flush? If i recall correctly, the engine is build with tunnels which allow the coolent to flow within to cool off the engine. Hence i saw how mechanic used to insert water pipe n flush out dirty coolent. When doing refill, they turn on the engine so as to see if the water pump has pumped all the water which will gone thru the whole engine appropriately then by refilling the reservoir if necessary.

[@GarasiFelixDan]

Hi George .This service was to replace the coolant only , not a full flush job as its not needed, the car is still 33000Ks on the clock, if you were to have older car with the coolant that hasn't been replace for its life then you will need to do the full flush job just like you mention above perhaps add a radiator flush chemical to help dissolve the gunk and dirt in the cooling system.

@@jimsinnovations2737 maybe recheck the brake caliper, bolts and piston and do it all over again see if the light goes away.

When you drain the coolant via the petcock valve on the radiator does it drain all of the coolant or is there still some coolant left in the engine block? The Mazda service manual recommends flushing the cooling system once the coolant is drained, that's why I'm asking.

[@GarasiFelixDan]

some of left over coolant will be in the engine block. you could flush it if you want :)

[@ceezedgerman]

@UCoJgjPIuMr0x0YR4yikLwvA Any idea how much coolant?

[@GarasiFelixDan]

@@ceezedgerman should be 4 to 5 ltrs left.

[@ceezedgerman]

@@GarasiFelixDan That seems like a lot, more than half the capacity. How do you get the rest of it out?

[@GarasiFelixDan]

@@ceezedgerman to drain the whole coolant you have to disconnect upper hose thermostat and lower hose :)

[@zainiaris]

How many litres of coolant required?. 7L?

[@GarasiFelixDan]

I have used approximately 4.7 litres in this video. As it is not a full flush service.

[@noon9483]

5 litre is enough?.if so ... very good why some.said 7 litre

[@GarasiFelixDan]

@@noon9483 Ya 5 ltrs is enough. 🫡

Very helpful

cheers.

What about bleeding no need?

[@GarasiFelixDan]

Bleeding procedure is neccessary. Please follow the direction in the description box. Thank you

[@moileung]

Anyone on the comments can tell what year model is this cx5? (My cx5 is 2015 and it doesn't have this blue covering, just black)

[@GarasiFelixDan]

Year 2012 - 2014 with 2.0ltr skyactiv has blue. Other than that with 2.5ltr skyactiv has black .

[@mindu9766]

1:19 start (for my own reference)

[@mtay65]

Should flush with distilled water at least 2 rounds with engine running for 3-5 mins before pouring in new coolant.

[@GarasiFelixDan]

Definately can do that for the next service.

[@victorcasillas6708]

no se debe purgar ???

[@GarasiFelixDan]

i let the system burp after topping up.

[@betosanjaya4646]

thanks

[@GarasiFelixDan]

No problem

[@gibsonindistress418]

I tried to bleed the system after changing the coolant. When I did, the coolant just started to overflow the radiator cap so I turned the car off... Is this normal?

[@GarasiFelixDan]

Yeap its normal. Let it over flow for 10 mins until both fans kicks in. Then after that just top up the coolant until full & dont forget top up the overflow bottle too. Rinse away the spillage with clean water.

[@dalevannguyen157]

I Think The Bottle Better Than The Fluid 😂😅😮

[@GarasiFelixDan]

😂😂😂😂

[@ЕвгенийШаталов-в1т]

Охлаждающую жидкость слили только с радиатора и расширительного бака, порядка 2,5 литра старой жидкости осталось в отопителе и патрубках системы.

[@GarasiFelixDan]

it should be more than 2.5L comes out from the system.

[@ЕвгенийШаталов-в1т]

@@GarasiFelixDan Вся система вмещает порядка 7L, вы слили только около 4L

[@GarasiFelixDan]

@@ЕвгенийШаталов-в1т yes this video is not about draining the whole cooling system. To fully drain you have to disconnect the lower and upper hose and you can drain the whole from the block. But if you repeat the drain and fill every 2 years your engine should be fine and you are not wasting too much effort on this particular service.

[@ЕвгенийШаталов-в1т]

Зачем мешать старую и новую жидкости? Не так сложно слить максимально все.

[@GarasiFelixDan]

@@ЕвгенийШаталов-в1т Im not ocd about it and at the time its not neccessary to do a complete coolant drain for this video. The car is completely fine until now. Just do a regular drain n fill every 2 years or so. you should be all good to go.

[@zamok1965]

ok

[@GarasiFelixDan]

yes thank you
