Amazing video! This is the most detailed out there. I turned to youtube because the service manual says that you need a scanner to just inspect ATF condition and I dont have one.
Many thanks for the videos, just did my 2012 Mazda 3 Skyactiv. The oil looked disgusting red-black in color. Cannot speak for the Mazda 3 change interval, but my Corolla likes a change at 18.000 km. So much easier to change in Corolla 🙃 Thanks again !!
Great video, if you run a plastic tude from a funnel into the fill hole you do not have to pull the intake box assembly. 5/8 outside diameter fits perfect in the fill hole.
Good video the way I'm going to do it is before I even start draining the fluid I'm going to pull the dipstick out when the car is completely cold and then I will check the dipstick when the car is cold it will give me an idea of where the fluid should be when the vehicle is cold I feel if I do it this way I cannot go wrong after I add the 4 quarts of FZ transmission fluid take the car for a ride park it is let the car sit overnight and in the morning when the car is cold check the level on the dipstick I feel that will give me a pretty accurate reading
Yeah, you can do it that way. You can also try checking the fluid while the engine is running to have more basis for inspection. About the job done to this vehicle, actually, we have already performed this several months ago. I just uploaded this video recently. I put 4 quarts/liters of FZ transmission and it runs good. No problem at all. Everything is good up until now. Been using the vehicle for several months.
@@DraftProject have you had any problems at all since you changed your fluid I basically took out exactly three quarts and put exactly three quarts back in so far so good I was going to do more but they were all out of fluid at the mazda dealer only had three quarts man that FZ fluid is expensive 55 dollars for 3 qts
@@dobermanguy9437 No problems at all. Everything is smooth and working properly. Basically, the rule is what or how many comes out, comes in. Just make sure you properly measured the fluid that comes out. If there is only 3 quarts in your drain pan, then put 3 quarts back in your transmission, no need to add more. If you want to be extra sure, just check the dipstick for assurance. Oh man that is really expensive. Here, it ranges around 30 dollars for three quarts.
I've heard a lot of people say you shouldn't change your transmission oil if it's really, really old. Apparently, the thinking goes that your transmission will have already been worn down, and if you put new -- really slick -- fluid in, your transmission will slip, even to the point of not being able to run at all. What was your experience?
Thank you so much, my mechanic could not even locate the dipstick. Once again thanks for the detailed video. Is there any need to refill ATF after 65,000Kms on Mazda Atenza GHEPF?
I just did a flush yesterday in my mazda 3 17 2.5 auto. And only 3.4 liter came out… So i put back this amount and everything seem right. But im wondering why there a so « big » difference with you who got almost 4 liter out from only drain and refill? Any idea?
Are you available for servicing. I really looking and wanted to replace my atf auto transmission fluid for my mazda 2 2016 model. Thanks in advance. Couldnt find you on fb
This is very educating. I have the 2017 mazda 3 Grand Touring. Has the 2.5l skyactive engine. I have 35k miles on it. When should I change the fluid? What type of fuel do you guys use? I use premium fuel octane gas but wonder if instead of premium if I can use regular gas.
If you have miles as unit, that would be probably around 56k kms. We recommend it to change the fluid as soon as possible to maintain the whole transmission. At this mileage, you might have been experiencing some jerky or rough shifting. Changing the fluid will eliminate it and make it smooth again. For the type of gasoline, it is best to follow what has been said in the service manual. In our vehicle, we only use regular gas as recommended by the manufacturer.
Mazda says it is a "lifetime" transmission fluid. I still recommend changing the fluid though at around 60k to 100k miles American. Just be careful, as a rebuilt transmission is EXPENSIVE.
The vehicle had only reached about 25000 Km's on it which only requires a drain and refill job. The automatic transmission filter should be changed when you reach 50000 Km along with the ATF. Thank you!
I have a 2017 Mazda 3 with only 52 kilometers mileage, with the transmission working just fine with no complains. When should I drain and refill the transmission oil if it is mandatory and should I change the filter too?
The transmission should survive to at least 200K MILES without a fluid change, 25K kilometers is a really low number and you're going to waste a lot of time and money. I don't really recommend going 200K miles but I did and it's still driving (2013 '3 2.0L skyactiv automatic).
Where can I find the check procedure for my 2016 CX-5. Owners manual doesn’t specify any procedure or trans fluid level check. Where did you get the “wait 5 minutes after temp light goes out” procedure?
Mostly you can find it on service manual. Owner's manual only provides basic stuff and knowledge while service manual gives you every details, procedures, and technical points. Unfortunately, we don't have a service manual for our vehicle. The 5 minutes procedure was actually our experiment. First, we check the fluid at cold engine which has high reading on the dipstick. Then, we turn on the engine and the fluid level started to decrease. After five minutes or when the temp light goes out, the fluid stays on a certain level only. It won't decrease anymore even though you let the engine run for a few more minutes or even hours. That indicates an accurate fluid reading. That's where we concluded the five minutes procedure.
I haven't experienced working on a Mazda MX-5 before. But, I tried to search for a bit and I found out that they don't have dipstick. They only have what they call "Overflow Plug". www.mx5manual.com/page.html?docid=SM353181 You can check that for more reference. Thanks! Hope it helps
Because the vehicle has 25,000 Km odo which is an early thing to do. I just changed the transmission oil to keep it fresh and maintained. I will change the transmission filter by 50,000 Km odo.
What is the size of the ATF drain plug washer? These crush washers are recommend to be replaced, but cant find the size to order replacements...? Appreciate any help. Are these the same size as the motor oil plug washers? I have some of those...
As far as I remember, they are the same. When I performed an engine oil change and transmission oil change on a Mazda 2 with the same engine, I found out that they have the same drain bolt.
Oxidation causes the transmission fluid to change color. When used and vehicle operates, the fluid absorbs pressure and release bubbles, creating a chemical reaction that leads to change of color and properties.
1. Nope. This is a 6-speed automatic transmission. 2. Nope. Mazda FZ fluid is only designed for a specific Mazda 6 speed automatic transmission. Hope it helps. Thank you!
Some shops do full flush , actually not recommended as quite often as the transmission ages you want some of the wear material on your oil. If you did a few drain and refill throughout the life of your transmission it should be good and clean. don't overdue it though. 26000 km in this video is a bit overkill. I would have waited till at last 75k km
Just prepare 4 bottles to be sure. Drain and measure how much fluid comes out, so you will know how much fluid you will need to put back. You may refer to your owner's manual for your transmission oil capacity.
You haved to replace the filter inside of the transmission and clean the gasket? An old mechanic says to me ''when you get a shower why you wear new clean underwear and you do not wear the same?'' When you change oil you must change and filter too! I think is better! I am not a mechanic. Thanks for the video anyway!
That is correct. The replacement of filter is around 50k-60k Km. This job, which is only a drain and refill job, is done at 25k Km. The drain and refill is optional but I recommend it. I did not change the filter because it is too early and for that, the condition of the filter is not that dirty. I just changed the fluid to prolong the life of the filter before I change it by 50k Km. Of course, changing the filter is still the best and there is nothing wrong with it. The only issue is the cost could be doubled. You can change it if you want to. Hope this helps. Thank you very much too.
Hello, i have the same car mazda 3 axela skyactiv 1.5L year 2017. Do you know what transmission filter reference it has? I would like to do a drain/refill and change my filter. Thanks
Mazda says it is a "lifetime" transmission... I don't think you need to change the transmission filter. Drain and fill, is always good, but the filter is tricky
For the transmission filter, try this. Mazda Genuine Parts Parts Code: FZ11-21-500 This is actually from Mazda 2. Since Mazda 2 and 3 shares the same 1.5L engine, transmission are also near identical, except the gearing ratios. Just kindly confirm this part number in your nearest Mazda dealer for your vehicles compatibility.
For this vehicle, I don't recommend any other transmission fluid than the ATF FZ since Mazda transmission is pretty sensitive. There is one which is the Valvoline MaxLife MV which some says that it works and compatible with FZ transmissions. Although, I'm not really sure about it. Sorry about that.
I live in Australia and Mazda FZ is very expensive here. First I used Valvoline maxlife for drain and fill, however, the transmission made noisy and was not so good. I needed to drain the fluid again and used the Penrite LV ATF. Now the transmission was back to normal.
I highly recommend using original Mazda ATF only for assurance, just like what I've used in the video. You can use other fluid too but, I don't recommend it because these transmissions are sensitive and can have issues due to slight incompatibility with other fluids.
Hello. I have a 2015 Mazda 3 and in the operations manual it says that takes 7.8 lts (8.2 qts) but you added just 4 qts, can you clarify this please? I want to change it and want to be clear on how much I have to add
I am about to change mine soon and from what I've learnt some fluid is actually stuck in torque converter - which is not accessible if you only remove drain plug + bottom of the fluid pan. HTH.
@@rikki146ohh I see..thank you! Finally I was able to change it and it took the 4 qts to replace the old one. It must be like you explain that the whole 8 qts are needed
Sorry I wasn't able to respond. Yes, rikki146 is right. In some cars I believe, has an accessible drain plug for the torque converter. Other used a machine like a dialysis to completely change the fluid in the whole transmission. Don't worry about it, the main focus for this job is to only return what has been drained with a fresh fluid.
@@DraftProject excellent. Thank you very much. Another question, I found that there is a filter that can be replaced, but it would be needed to open and remove the cover to replace. Do you think this is necessary or if there is any risk by doing it? I didn’t know it could it could be replaced until after.
Yes, if you are referring to the automatic transmission filter, it should be replaced whenever you change your transmission fluid. Just prepare for extra ATF and gasket for the oil pan. That job would require cleaning of the oil pan too, so aerosol cleaners would help.
Hello, my friend, how do I get the original filter for the transmission, and I want some spare tools? Do you know a shop or program that sells tools at reasonable competitive prices (e-marketing or stores that have delivery?) Thank you, ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi! One of the first choice is that you can go to your nearest dealership for the original parts. Second is try searching in an online shopping site like Amazon, Ebay and more. Also, the parts for the Mazda is a bit difficult depending on the country. You could also try asking at your nearest auto stores for parts too.
for anybody wondering: torque specs for the transmission drain bolt (source: tech looked it up at dealership) 23-30 ft-lbs

Nope. It will start to change after a few hours of driving due to oxidation which is pretty normal.
Thank you very much!
Why didn't you change the filter? When should it be changed? Thank for your help!
The vehicle had only reached about 25000 Km's on it which only requires a drain and refill job.
The automatic transmission filter should be changed when you reach 50000 Km along with the ATF.

So change your transmission fluid at 26k only?
that was some nasty fluid! how many miles did that car have on that fluid? Curious as I've got a used one with a lot of miles.
I have a 2017 Mazda 3 with only 52 kilometers mileage, with the transmission working just fine with no complains. When should I drain and refill the transmission oil if it is mandatory and should I change the filter too?
We recommend doing it in this cycle:
Change fluid only at 25,000 Km - Drain and Refill
Change fluid and Filter at 50,000 Km
The transmission should survive to at least 200K MILES without a fluid change, 25K kilometers is a really low number and you're going to waste a lot of time and money. I don't really recommend going 200K miles but I did and it's still driving (2013 '3 2.0L skyactiv automatic).

hello madza people! my cx3 has done 100,000km. I have not changed the trans oil, is it a good or bad idea to change it?
Absolutely a good idea to change it. You will feel a differences once you changed your transmission oil. Also, gears and clutch will last longer.
is ATF Dialysis method also recommended on changing the ATF?
Yes that can also be used to change fluids. That method is more accurate and faster.
Some shops do full flush , actually not recommended as quite often as the transmission ages you want some of the wear material on your oil.

You took out red oil and put in blue oil? Are you sure you put in the right stuff? Why is that the case?
Yes, I put the same oil as what the manufacturer has been using. The color of the transmission fluid changes because of oxidation.
