  • Quickly describing how to change the transmission fluid on a Mazda 3 with a manual transmission.
    This was done on a 2006 model.
    I was using Red Line full synthetic oil MT-90. Compatible to SAE 75W90 API GL-4. Make sure to check your users manual if you need the same or a different type!

    BEST TIP: Drive and heat fluid prior to draining to suspend and REMOVE all the dirt particles. Thanks!

    This is a good example of what to use for a Mazda transmission. I've seen people trying Mercon V and that's not nearly as good plus there's the viscosity difference. Some basic differences between fluids beyond the viscosity are the amount of calcium, phosphorus or no phosphorus, boron, antioxidants, polymers, and esters to make the fluid last longer.

    Many txs for the vid. Should be noted that on manual trans cars the clutch hydraulics are operated by brake fluid, so bleed your brakes once in awhile. Note that I am not saying to put brake fluid In your transmission, rather to replace your brake fluid that operates the clutch as well.

    Thanks a bunch for this video! There is a real lack of videos on Mazda's with a manual transmission. I have a 2010 Mazda 6, (6 speed M) and assume mine will be similar. I will drive mine up onto four short 2 X 8 boards so that I can have better access and still keep the car level (otherwise, my big head won't fit under the front bumper!).

      Hey man, I know this is an old post... I have the exact same car as you 'well mines a 10' 6MT GT HB, not sure if the same, but surely the same transmission... yes, my car is low to the ground, I already have the redline fluid, just waiting for a warm day to do it.. we're you able to easily get under there and change yours out? My shifts are becoming pretty notchy from 1st to 2nd, want to get this done asap.

    Looks strange to me. Maybe I am confused. 1). How do I know the size of the white plug the goes into the fill whole and attached to the place pipe? 2). Why does the transmission fluid fill when the fill hole is facing to towards the ground? Seems like the fluid would not go in?

    • @dkgrace6743

      No, the fill plug is vertical and higher up the trany. The drain plug is lower on the bottom of the trany and faces the ground.

    Do you have the part numbers for the drain and fill plugs and washers? Hard to find a good parts diagram online. It looks like the plug is 99511-1800, and the washer is 99564-1800 but I'm not 100% sure.

      No dipstick for manual transmissions.
      The video shows how to set it to the correct level. Assuming that the system is sealed right, you should not have to worry about the level until the next transmission oil change.

      Remember to keep an eye on your brake/gear oil level. You can find it at the mid right upper area of the engine bay. You have transaxle transmission fluid which is what this video is about, and you have brake fluid which is also the gear fluid, you can see the level of this oil by popping the hood.
      In the maintenance section of your vehicle user manual, transaxle fluid must be replaced and has no indication for inspection since it cannot be. But there is an inspection indication on the gear/brake oil.

    Do you know if the bolt that is used for the refill hole is the same as the bolt for the drain plug? You show they are both 23mm. But are they the same bolt? My sons transmission is leaking and I have to add more transmission fluid. But the previous owner tore the crap out of the bolt where you fill the transmission fluid. I'm going to have to chisel out that bolt but can't seem to find a replacement. Any help would definitely be greatly appreciated.
