Mazda CX 5 CX 9 CX 3 Mazda 3 Mazda 6 Transmission ATF FZ & Filter replacement FW6AEL / FW6AXEL
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 июн 2020
- Hello viewers, hopefully everyone are well. This video I am going to demonstrate how to replace the Transmission fluid ATF FZ & Transmission filter on this Mazda equipped with Skyactiv transmission FW6AEL / FW6AX EL. The car has done 40.000 kms.
This procedure should be similar with all Mazda equipped with Skyactiv gasoline engine and Automatic transmission.
Tools & Parts:
Mazda ATF FZ Fluid
Mazda Strainer filter FZ 0121 500 / Equivalent OE parts
Torque wrench Set to 9 - 10 Nm.
Ratchet with 10mm socket
Hex drive 8mm
Liquid gasket RTV Red / Grey
Please recheck the ATF FZ fluid level once you completed the service and have the vehicle warmed up. It must be leveled on the marking on the dip stick.
Even though the manual books stated the ATF is lifetime and doesnt need changing i would not recommend to follow because of what i had saw from my transmission service.
I highly recommend this service and is a must every 40000kms. After the service, the transmission should feel very smooth engaging all the gears. Gives the car a better performance from changing the gears.
Every 20000kms i recommend to drain n fill service for the transmission.
I will not held any responsibility if any damage occurs whilst doing this service.
Enjoy the video, please don’t forget to Like, Share & Subscribe to this channel to give your full support.
Stay safe guys & will see you again on the next video. Peace

thanks bro i appreaciate it :)
Thank you. One of the best straight forward video on changing ATF. I will definitely do this myself when it's time to.
thanks i appreciate it man. Yes i highly recommend to replace ATF and filter. The car will drive just like a new car.
Hey man. Can you upload more mazda repair videos like this? There aren't much out there and it's good potential for you
Definately. I will keep posting more of this . Stay tune and subscribe to this channel for more new upcoming videos. Thank you for your support. :)
@@FelixDanGarasiAuto ...only if you are still driving/owning the same car. Lol

@@Anthony.akiki1 👍✌️
I have a mazda video if helps
Nice video. It is evident that you take your time in order to work precisely and i really appreciate that.
👍✌️🙏🏼
wow a modern transmission with a dip stick? Amazing engineering!!!!
I have the same transmission and its a little inconvenient to remove the air box assembly just to check but its way better than having the transmission completely sealed!
@@Willadin its very easy to remove the airbox :)
Just watched a second video of yours and they are truly amazing and a life saver. You go full detail and not miss a beat. The cost now days to do some of these car repairs are so ridiculous. It is hard to find a good honest mechanic. Thank you for your video's. They are very Educating and almost feels like your in school or in training.
Thank you so much for your kind and the support I truly appreciate it. Thank you for the time tuning in to this channel. 🙏🏼

Please make more videos for mazda cx 5 repairs. Your videos are informative and helpful. Thank you.
Thank you Noel.
Just subbed. Thank you for the clear and informative videos on the Mazda CX-5! Great videos!
Cheers Erdward . Thank you for the support.
Excellent video with really good photography . Thankyou for posting .
very much appreciated Brian :)
I just did service on transmission of mine (2016 cx5) drop the old oil and fill up with the fresh oil ( 3.5 lt ) at 37K, it's a must definitely! Thank you Felix
you welcome . make sure to check fluid level after driving 30mins
Bro. Did you change the transmission oil filter ? Thank you
Awesome tutorial sir! Have 2015 CX-5 with 105,000 miles. Haven’t change the tran oil yet. I hope it’s not too late to change it. Keep it coming please. You’re the only one that explains step by step on Mazda related maintenance. New sub
thx u for your support 👍🏼
Definitely not too late. I changed my fluid at 150k miles and it wasn't even burnt looking or sludgy. And my trans still shifts like new. I used oem FZ fluid since it seemed to have held up so well. (2015 Mazda 6)
@@know916bound awsome . glad you did the service. I would recommend service earlier. Dont neglect it too long. 👍🏼
Hello Dan, with your video I have realized this operation on my CX-5, 200.000 kilometers, and oil was very bad but no symptom of failure before that. It's a preventive operation.
thanks a lot, I have save a lot of money with your help!
I give my feedback after my test drive, and Woh! I feel a new gearbox now !
Gear changes are really more faster than before.
I will do a second replacement of oil in 5000 kilometer to have a 100 % new oil (not necessary but I prefer to do).
Dan you are the best !
Glad to see a good result :D keep it up and maintain it well .
At 150,000K for first time changing the ATF and filter, I’m concerned about transmission slip if using new fluid, should I be? Some say once the fluid has gone very dark it is better to leave the old fluid to prevent slippage, maybe I will save the old fluid in case I have problems… don’t know how dirty it will be I haven’t cracked her open yet.
@@leadmonkeyhey, did you end up changing the ATF on your car?
I’m currently at the same spot you were but with 180.000 miles, heard the same about not doing the new fluid but this really worries me.
Any advice?
Thanks in advance.
This is an awesome usable guide.
Thanks Felix
Thank you sir
Just did mine today...thanks for the video. I did check my fluid level with the car warmed up and running...it triggered a check engine light doing it though because the air box assembly was out of the car...no problem though I just erased the codes with my scan tool and hit the MAF sensor with some sensor cleaner in case it got dust on it.
awsome ! glad it works out fine :)
Hey I have a question about that. When mine is turned off it's filled right to the full line but if I check it while it's idling it's at the low line do you think I should add more? I found a procedure put out by mazda for checking it but they don't say if it has to be idling
This answered my questions, and is a great quality, great job.
thank you sir.
mechanic with clean hands, salute
thank you sir
G’day and greetings from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺 I have a 2018 Atenza 6 2.5 litre I love this estate beautiful to drive, I have it serviced through Mazda but I had to asked them to change the Tranz fluid because it’s like a lot of cars these days it’s for ever fluid. I’m 65 yo and I have never heard of that, I like your channel even though I can’t work on mine anymore I have subscribed and look forward to watching your videos kind regards John😊
Thank you for your kind support , Atenza are very nice car so premium. Very much appreciated John 🙏🏼.
@jason albano yeap its totally fine as long as it on the F marking or slightly above its ok. Yeap i did check also while idling the engine but did not show on video. Also i did check when the car is turned off. if yours just tad bit above F marking it should b fine but if you have time to drain a bit you should do so.
This is so well put together, you sound Aussie like myself bud, the description in the video is so detailed and given some of the horror stories I've heard especially in older mazda versions of Ford 5 speeds I think you're bang on with preventative maintenance at those intervals. I'm hoping the process is similar for the 5 speed in my 2008 sp 23. Looks similar to one I saw but wasn't half as well done as this and video quality wasn't the best either. Pretty sure my trans is the FS5AEL slightly modified Ford one and pretty janky from all I've heard, although I'm sure fords is worse lol
yes mate. spend my child hood life in down unda. im here now living overseas in Indonesia. Its definately a good car these mazda just gotta do the preventative maintenance these engine pretty much last long.
saving me money by showing me how to do it myself! Thanks :)
u r welcome sir. im very glad it helps out.
Most of that gunk stuck to the drain pan magnet is the metal shavings from initial wear-in when the gearbox was new. It definitely doesn’t get that dirty every 40K km’s. I just drained my CX5 atf at 113K miles or almost 200K km’s, and sent a sample to Blackstone labs. They showed the fluid viscosity was still quite good even after that much use. Since only half the fluid comes out, I’m doing 3 drain and refills about 2 weeks apart in order to get a good amount of fresh fluid into the mix.
And in those fluid changes, you never changed the transmission filter ?
@@odjblue I just replaced the filter on the last drain and fill, and resealed the pan. Drained and filled 3.7 quarts the first time, 3.7 the second, and 5 quarts on the third. With a capacity of 8.2 qts, that means only about 11% of the old fluid is left in the system.
This is relieving to hear. I just bought a 2016 with 200kms I'm thinking the transmission fluid has never been replaced. Hoping there is no harm in doing it now. Any thoughts?
@@nolannatashaTV yep do it, but to get the most old fluid out, without a trans flush machine, you have to do 3 drain and refills, which will cost you around US $150 if you use OEM fluid.
@@Patrick94GSR whats the OEM fluid for a 2022 CX5 ?
Thanks !
Muy buen video , muchas gracias,una pregunta :El Loctite 5699 sirve para usarlo en empaquetadura de culata?
I am not sure . but have a read here on their website www.henkel-adhesives.com/id/en/product/gasketing-sealants--flange-sealants/loctite_si_5699.html
Good video. My 2016 cx5 is coming up on 50k miles. So I'll be changing the transmission fluid with the new FZ fluid like you used. I recently changed the front and rear differential oil on mine.
Everyone has to watch out when manufacturers use terms like lifetime fluid. Thats all BS. Fluid wears out and becomes contaminated. Lifetime fluid is a BS term used to make cars breakdown more often. When the transmission does fail you're at fault for not maintaining it lol. All of these manufacturers should be held accountable for this garbage.
Thats the one ! Thank you for the support 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
excellent video thank you!

Top quality video!
thank you mate , i appreciate that.
Thanks for help . Big support
You r welcome man. Very much appreciated 👍🏼
This is a great video tutorial. I own a 2016 Mazda CX-3 with just over 70,000 miles. I'm planning on doing this service but dealer wants an outrageous amount of money. I rather do this myself. I'm guessing the same instructions apply on a CX-3.
Yes it is the same technique for cx 3. 👌
@@FelixDanGarasiAuto Thank you for the reply Felix. Very much appreciate.
Very clear and good quality video!
thank you ✌🏻
@@FelixDanGarasiAutodo you know by chance, exactly what amount of oil you has put back in the transmission? I dont have access to leveled place to do it. And it should be standard the exact quantity for a oil pan and filter replacement…Thanks in advance!
@@sebbbou5455 if i can remember if drain n fill method it takes about 3.9 Ltr to 4.1 Ltr of fluids. just make sure you warm up the car after refilling for 15mins and use the dipstick to measure it make sure its topped up correctly.
Great video. You skip over the easy stuff and focus on what matters.
thank you man 👌
Excelente tutorial, podrías hacer uno de como lavar los inyectores por favor
solo use un buen aditivo de combustible como el limpiador de inyector s1 / liquimoly regularmente cada 5000kms. ya que el inyector es muy raro que tenga problemas.

Hi Felix thanks for all the cx5 videos, I use them all the time for servicing my car. Could you please show the removal of the under car cover guard and removal of the air box .it’s easy when you have done it ,but there may be some doing it for the first time ,and not all as experienced as you thanks again keep up the good work.
Thank you and i appreciate that. will try to make one for us :)
If you need some guidance for removing the air box there are instructions for installing the corksport intake kit on the internet. That should give you an idea of what needs to be removed.
If you need to ask how to remove basic stuff, then you shouldn't be working under a car. Send it to a workshop!

Nice Video Felix.
However, I observed that you missed installing the green o-ring for the filter. Is it ok? I just changed the transmission fluid three weeks ago. The new filter is equipped with two green o-rings.
Btw, I bought used car Mazda 6 2014 with the milage around 125000 km. The first owner never changes the transmission fluid because according to Mazda the fluid is a lifetime for the skyactive technology. After long investigation, I decide to change the fluid. The km was 148500 when I change the fluid. So far no issue with the gear system. I advise you to change the fluid before achieving 80,000 km if you want to keep your car for a long time. If your milage is already high (like my case) or above 150000 km, check first the fluid condition. If the fluid too dark, dirty, and very high viscosity, it is better to leave it alone if the transmission is still working, because the change of fluid can cause a slip or the car don't even move on.
The aftermarket has new replacement instead of green they are black coloured. :)
Very good videos man
Glad you like them!
I've posted a video regarding similar car on the park selector switch.
Love your video. I'm gonna do more on mine once its had last main dealer service mine 2013 all main dealer serv his. But not worth it no when I can do alot myself
Awsome let me know on the progress 👍😎
Thank you for the video, I'm a mechanic and just bought a cx-5 and want to do maintenance. The Mazda dealer told me there was no serviceable filter in the transmission, your video proves otherwise. I will be ordering a filter and fluid!
no problem. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😁😁😁
amigo el mazda cx 3 tiene filtro de bencina? como para limpiarlo
thanks for the video, do you know how often i need to change front and rear differential gear oil
I would change ever 40000 to 50000km or 1 to 2 years max.
just checked my transmission dipstick, it smelt a little burnt. I will be doing this this weekend for sure
👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you for your efforts in doing all these tutorials! I already watched a lot of your videos and theyre all interesting and informative. I would like to ask if you will recommend me to change the atf of my mazda3 2015. It has only 34000 kilometers but already 7 years old.
yea definately do it you will see big improvements.
@@FelixDanGarasiAuto thank you again and again! I love your channel sir!
Another great video. Do you have to put back the air box and maf to recirculate the transmission oil into every gear? Did you start the engine to change into gear? Thanks
Yes have to do that. Start the car n warm it up. Then put P , N , R and D for couple of times slowly.
Hey Felix, thanks for another excellent instructional video. Can you tell me or show me in another video when you have to jack up the cx5, which point under the vehicle you use to jack up the vehicle? Also after jacking up the vehicle, which points you place the jack stands under? Thanks!
Jacking points i use the subframe chassis bolt as my strongest point of jack.
@@FelixDanGarasiAuto thanks for the quick reply. Sorry for the novice request, but in this instance, a picture would be worth a thousand words if and when you have the time. 🙂 thanks
Great job!
cheers man
@@FelixDanGarasiAuto Thanks.
Just a quick note: the ATF level is meant to be checked while the engine is idling - from Mazda official service manual.
yes sir correct. but you can do check it with the engine off after warmed up also no problems.
@@FelixDanGarasiAuto no it needs to be running to get the proper level
@@blk95gsrt It gets the same reading after it has warmed up ive done it numerous time with the engine on and after it has warmed up with the engine off.
Felix, thanks for the great video. Straight to the point and not too much talking (just the needed). Quick question, how long did u wait to:
1. Refill the transmission after installing pan.
2. Start the car?. Every time I do a job with RTV I wait at least 1 hour after filling it with the fluid and at least overnight to start the car.
I did my 2013 today with 83k, fluid was ok, but needed to be replaced. Not as bad as I have seen it in other cars. Tomorrow I'll start the car and test it out. Ended up using 4qt 8 OZ of fluid.
Hi bro. Thanks for tunin in.
1. I waited for 30 mins as the rtv i had use cure very quick for 15 mins.
2. I waited 1 hour prior starting the car after refilling.
Then prior start the car i re torque the bolts one more time to make sure no leaks.
Hope this helps.
@@FelixDanGarasiAuto thanks for the quick response. Another thing not sure if ur has that issue, but the gas pedal, feels like stuck when park overnight. Once press once it goes back to normal.
@@kaimanson3174 mine doesnt have that stuck pedal issue. Maybe the pedal switch needs a quick clean over. Its just held by couple of bolts and one electric connector.
@@FelixDanGarasiAuto yeah, I saw it in the repair manual. Will take a look at it later on. But thanks again brother keep up that good material. First time I saw ur video about a year ago, I thought u have flipped the video...I was like why is he driving on the right side! LoL. Pretty cool.
@@kaimanson3174 no probs brother. Hehe. Thank you.
Informational video, thanks man! I was informed by my own Mazda dealer the Skyactiv engine do not require a change to the ATF oil as it could last a lifetime. I am driving the CX5 (KF). Correct me if I’m wrong 🤔.
No life time oil. Oil degrade over time.
@@FelixDanGarasiAuto I thought so too that oil has to be change periodically. In this case, how long or how far would you have travel before you change your ATF? Thanks 👍
@@nigelyong101 every 40000kms .
@@FelixDanGarasiAuto Thanks man!
Mazda owners manual says lifetime but I think they mean that's to the end of the powertrain warranty. If you want it to last I would change the fluid and do on mine. It's simple without the pan drop to do.
Thank you my friend...
you r welcome 🤝
Do you know if cx9 has same/similar transmission? Great video as always. Thank you!
yes they uses the similar transmission for all skyactiv maybe theres a slight differrerent in gear ratio other than that everything should be very similar.
I changed my CX5 transmission fluid at 200,000km first time last week since the gear shifting was not smooth. I did not drop the pan and changed the filter though, the gear shift was much smooth. I used electric oil transfer pump to suck the fluid out from the dipstick hole, the fluid was about 3.3L. I will do another drain and fill next week.
perfecto ! keep us updated.
I did drain and fill again today. I checked the fluid level at 122F this time and it's below the specified mark, I poured about extra 1L. I used Valovline Maxlife ATF, I don't think this fluid would create problem as I used it on my Camry without any issue.
The second time drain and fill made the gearbox more smooth than first drain and fill
@@xwonder6887 brillianttt job :) glad you have it all sorted out.
@@FelixDanGarasiAuto Thanks for your detailed video
Thank you :)
no problems
Thanks for the video! Did you clean off the left over gasket on the aluminum casing before you put the pan back on?
thank you for your time tuning in. Yes i have cleaned the left over residue from the old rtv gasket.
Hello Felix again thanks for your videos. Hpw many quarts comes out ? Just wanting to know how many I should buy before job.
about 4 liters and a little bit.
Very nice and organized video. I am your old fan. Can I ask if I do have a new gasket, do I still need RTV silicone? Many thanks.
if yoh have the new gasket dont need to add rtv . Very much appreciated
Nice work!
You said the filter is made locally, which city are you in?
My guess would be Bangkok...
Thank you for posting the video.
yeah Bangkok or Taiwan if i can remember. I live in Indonesia.
Hey Felix, I know this is an old video but transmission fill is temperature sensitive. You need to watch the transmission temperature through OBD and then check the level. Even the dip stick lists upper mark for when fluid temp 122F/50C and you checked it while temperature was normal.
If you have the obd reader tool should use it , but if you dont have the tool just drive it for awhile and should check it after driving, top it up if it necessary.
No you dont. Just measure how much fluid came out and put the same back in.
The fluid expands as it gets hotter. You need to check at the temperature specified by the manufacturer. I believe 120c in this case.
For the metrically challenged, 9 Nm is 6.6 Ft-lbs, or 80 in-lbs. This isn't very tight at all, but you're tightening a steel bolt in a cast aluminum housing, so guess which will strip first?!? Hint: The more expensive one.
I note this because my 1/2 drive digital torque wrench starts at 20 ft.-lbs as the lowest setting, which is over 2x the torque needed.
Great video series. How many miles/Km with that much sludge and dirty fluid? I thought you did a video about changing the fluid but you didn't have a filter, so that transmission fluid must have got dirty fast. Probably because the filter wasn't changed, and you didn't clean the sludge on the bottom. Transmission fluid generally has a lot of detergent to it.
Recheck the fluid level after a short drive, after the oil's been circulated a bit. There may be air pockets after the fluid is drained that don't get refilled until after the transmission circulates the fluid.
Checking the fluid level after a short drive is a good idea.
Top , perfect
No worries brah
Thank you but can I ask you how many oil liters we need?
you will need 4.8ltr. just buy 5 liter to be safe as you need to measure once everything is leveled.
Hello Sir!
I have a Mazda 6 2015, couldn't find in the manual anything about transmission fluid replacement. So I chatted with a certified Mazda technician about it via the mazdausa website. Told me is not necessary to replace transmission fluid whatsoever in this car. I insisted, they said NO! My car is 89k miles now, any comments?
Keep it up!
Yea mostly mazda tech they go by the book as told not to change the fluid , but after seeing my video are you sure not to replace as they are dirty even at 30000kms plus… i would recommend to change atf and the filter. ✌️
@@FelixDanGarasiAuto isn't late for that with 89k miles?
@@iamlegend3669 nah it is okay better be safe then sorry.
@@FelixDanGarasiAuto thank you man, best wishes!
Thank you for the great video.. i just want to know how many litres do i need to refill after draining and replacing the filter.. is it 4ltr or 4.5ltr?
Thank you so much i really apreciate that. 🙏🏼. So when draining the ATF fluid out out of the drain pan it should be about 4L. But if you are replacing the ATF strainer filter it would be about 4.5L to 4.7L. Please warm up the car first after topping up 4L and you can measure it back using the dipstick measure (grey colour dipstick) and if its leveled properly and at warm operating temp , it should be between the centre marking. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the video! I have 2007 Mazda CX-9... does this procedure works for mine?
should be similar.
What about the Mazda 2? Can you make more videos about serving that car.
Dont have Mazda 2 with me
Note that ATF levels must always be checked with the engine running, and on this particular gearbox, when the fluid is at 50 deg C or 122 F. This requires some sort of scan tool to verify ATF temp. Note that when the dash blue light turns off, the ATF is still much cooler than 50 C. If the fluid level shows correct with the engine off, the gearbox is actually under filled.
I read this on the mazda 6 service manual but im not gonna buy this tool so before u remove the dip stick take a photo and measuring the oil come out of the trans will make it better .
@@sKid-ts7hr an obd2 Bluetooth dongle is less than $30 US, connects to your phone, and is very useful for many things. You can’t get a proper reading without it because you won’t know the ATF temp. When the coolant blue light turns off, the ATF is still around 30-35 C.
@@Patrick94GSR i have my bluedrive but couldn't see trans temperature do u if u have suggested cheap scan to read the trans temp !
A meat thermometer
Just measure how much fluid came out and put the same back in. No need to over complicate yourseld
Will this be the same for a 2016 Mazda 6 i-touring and also how many quarts of ATF FZ fluid do I need to use?
if you have gasoline skyactiv engine it should be the same.
Hi! I have a mazda 3 2018 SE Skyactiv. The manual says it does not change transmission oil change. What is your opinion on this?
do you want to pay a hefty 1000 to 2000 dollars for the replacement unit or do you want to spend 250 - 300 dollars on preventative maintenance for the transmission :)
Excellent work! Dont know why they say "Skyactiv" is lifetime. LIfetime for who?
i kno right?
"Lifetime" fluid is the lifetime of the warranty period. They also use this term to lower the 'cost of maintenance/ownership' making it more appealing to buyers since they market it to be cheaper to maintain.
Thank you for your fantastic, detailed videos. How many Km were on this car when you replaced the ATF fluid?
this video the car was about 30k kms.
I have mazda 6 2016 model is it required to change the transmission oil along with filter also or only transmission oil can be changed
yes i would recommend replacing the trans fluid and filter :)
Hi. Do you know if the fw6a-el is in the CX-3?
Thanks
Yes. It should be the same.
I just wondering what is the size of drain plug gasket? Thank you
its the same as the engine oil :)
Is fine to change the oil?
My 2011 CX9 slipped when go from 3rd to 4… sometimes.
I’m afraid to be damaged.
Thank you very much for the video.
yeap definately can give it a go. How many ks has the car done and have you change the oil previously ?
Chieck while car runing or just warm becaus agent said while runing
Yes you can check while running too. I did mine while it was warmed up then i check with the car running after have got the same result.
Nice Video, couple questions, I have to do this for my daughters 2014 Mazda CX 5 , I have watched the only three videos on this and two are yours, 1.) one video showed 3.5 QTs used and the other showed 5qts used so I am a little bit confused, 2.) is this a full change out or partial change out as sometimes you cannot get all the fluid out of the torque converter in some automatic transmissions? and 3.) one video said to check fluid in park with engine running and yours said to check it with engine off. Calcification on these 3 points would be really appreciated. Thank you, Jim.
hi Jim, this method im showing is partial change out. if we only do the drain n fill method without replacing the filter you will only need approx 3.5ltr. If you are replacing the filter you will need approx 4.5l of atf fluids. yeap you wont be able to get the whole fluid out as it is stuck in the torque converter. ive seen a video you could do extra mile by draining and fill 2 to 3 times after you do this service to get all the old fluid out as much as possible , but would need to spend more than 5 ltr of atf fz. Yes for initial fluid check the engine must be on but if you have warmed up the car long enough then you can turn it off and check it while is off , i got the same reading with engine on or off (warmed up) . Id like to go over again and do a triple check after the engine have warmed up and top up if neccessary.
@@FelixDanGarasiAuto Thank you for your reply
what about the others ATF still in the torque converter? so they will mixed new ATF and old ATF in the torque converter? maybe should flushing all the ATF?
you could do a full flush but this video not showing how to do full flush just partial atf fluid change with filter. For flushing method have to use a proper ATF fushing machine.
9:57 when torquing back bolts do you have spec for Mazda Verisa 2005 model, can't find service manual online, also does 9 stand for foot pounds and then the next settings is for bolt tread 10NM ? (sorry im a newb) but watching yr video I managed to change oil&filter on Mazda Verisa 👍
i dont have the torque spec for verisa mazda. but i believe it should be similar. 10Nm for that bolts.
I can’t get my transmission pan off my 2012 mazda 6i. All of the bolts are off but it won’t budge. Any tips?
use a flat screw driver with a rag hit it harder on the corner. it is very tight seal from the factory. careful not to bend the lip of the pan.
Hi Felix, how is your gearbox until today, how many km you did after replacement filter and fluid ? Are there any differences ?
In Mazda they told me "don't touch gearbox fluid... once you touch you may damage it..." Really afraid after this scenario.. what do you think, any suggestions ?
still runs fine here no problems. Prevent your gearbox component from getting damage and prolong the life time of the transmission.
Hello. Did you measure the oil level on the running engine ?Or was the engine turned off?
after warming up then turn engine off
The level check is done with the engine idling, warmed up.
yes definately correct. But u can also do check the oil level after driving for couple of minutes by then it has warmed up the transmission.
Great tutorial! Would this work on my 2017 Mazda 3 bn? Turning 3 years in a few months and am thinking about doing this procedure. Thank you!
Check if your car equipped with the same automatic gear box. It should be stated under the owners manual book.
@@FelixDanGarasiAuto hello! Unfortunately I couldn't seem to find the gearbox code or might have missed it, but I could see it needs Mazda genuine ATF FZ with 7.8 L (8.2 US qt, 6.9 Imp qt) rated capacity.
@@Willadin yep it mazda 3 BN 2013 to 2018 using the same skyactiv automatic gearbox . :)
@@FelixDanGarasiAuto glad to hear, thank you so much! I guess I should start ordering the parts I need ready for my next oil change.
Where did you get the plastic dip stick for the level check?
One of the toughest part about changing fluid in these lifetime/sealed transmission, is the lack of a dip stick.
So far I’ve used volumetric method, measuring what drained out, to determine how much new fluid to pour back in.
Mine is a 2012 CX9; before Skyactive.
@@reallifeengineer7214 there should be a dip stick somewhere in the engine bay for your 2012 cx 9. Take a look near by the air intake box. Yeap using volumetric method are also fine.
I'm going to drop mt transmission pan on my 2016 CX-3. After removing all 10mm bolts how hard was it to remove the pan for the very first time? Fatotory atv glue. I bought a special pan splitter tool for this job. Thanks! Keep up with videos they are great!
its quiet dfficult to split the pan first time but just give it an extra force to open it should do just fine :)
I've got a 2016 cx3 also. Have you ever noticed it jumping when switching from reverse to drive?
@@TrumpDoesntWipe no i haven't
@@TrumpDoesntWipe no. I would check the fluid level
Shoot! I forgot to do the part where I shift through gears for the torque converter!! Is that bad?
nah should be okay
How to change mazda 3 skyactiv 2017 year fuel filter?
Located inside the fuel tank .
I'm using a rubber gasket on my 2016 Mazda cx-3 transmission pan bolts. What is the exact torque spec? 8Nm 9Nm or 10Nm? I dont want to over tighten or have a leak.
10nm should b fine
I’ve never bothered changing these internal filters unless it’s required by the manufacturer. It’s extra annoying when the manufacturer doesn’t provide a pan gasket. Just drain and fill occasionally 🙂
yeap, this also could do the job just fine just do drain n fill occasionally . 👍🏼👍🏼
Do you know if this oil type can be used for mazda demio 2013 skyactiv cvt gearbox?
use Mazda conventional cvt fluid for the cvt transmission.
I have the Mazda 6 2015 (atf fz) but The Owner Guide says you don't need make oil change of the Automatic transmitionm.. but I am not sure about this recomendation... Please explain me ...
oil degrade over time and will decrease transmission performance. I will take that into consideration and change it at least every 2 years of usage.
This is why I sold my forester that has cvt transmission because it’s complicated. I bought the cx5 because it’s simple to
Change transmission fluid. How often do u change the transmission fluid?
aha. Yeah some Subys r very hard to maintain each to their own though. But these skyactiv mazdas r easy to maintain and very accessible for their parts. I would say every 30k to 40k intervals Should be enough.
Hello thank you for your video- much appreciated!
I am about do same on my 2017 Mazda CX-3. In the Mazda service book I cannot find the amount required for the replacement of oil/and filter. I found online for the change to be 7.8 litres? Strange because you used only 4 litres or so? Can you confirm amount for the change?
Thanks

7.8 litres if you ovehaul the whole transmission including remove the excess oil from the torque converter. If you use my method and with transmission filter change you will use about 4.2 to 4.5 litres all up.
Hi Felix, the video is just as useful as usual, thank you for sharing. What size is the ring gasket? and is it possible to share where it can be bought? Is it available in T*k*ped#a or a similar platform? Also, on the long pipe, how long and what size did you use to refill the transmission fluid? Thanks
Hi Felix, hope you are doing fine. Is this gasket part number 995641400? same with the oil machine pan gasket?
by the looks of it , that is correct part number. Long tube i use is a the smallest pvc tubing size i think it was 20mm get about 1m in length.
Vielen Dank
Willkommen, Sir
Are you supposed to check the level when it is idling? Mine is perfect when not idling but if I check it while it's idling it's at the low mark
yes you can check with the engine while running. 👍
When you say all bolts your meaning the pan bolts as well? I did buy a torque wrench. thanks.......
yes correct. 👍🏼
Hey, so my 2020 CX9 GT has 40K miles/ Can I just replace the fluid only without needing to drop the pan and replacing the filter? Thanks for the great video man.
sure can do 👍🏼
