id0111hf800400

Replacement part

Gasket

Quantity: 1

Location of use: Oil pan drain plug

Oil and chemical type

Engine oil

Type: Recommended oil

Warning

• A hot engine can cause severe burns. Be careful when servicing the vehicle.

• A vehicle that is lifted but not securely supported on safety stands is dangerous. It can slip or fall, causing death or serious injury. Never work around or under a lifted vehicle if it is not securely supported on safety stands.

• Continuous exposure to USED engine oil has caused skin cancer in laboratory mice. Protect your skin by washing with soap and water immediately after working with engine oil.

Caution

• If engine oil is spilled on the exhaust system, wipe it off completely. If you fail to wipe the spilled engine oil, it will produce fumes because of the heat.

• If engine oil is added while engine oil drainage is insufficient, the engine oil amount will exceed the specification and the MAX mark on the dipstick. When draining the engine oil, warm up the engine (engine oil temperature: approx. 60 °C {140 °F} or more) and wait for 5 min or more before draining it.

Note

• The viscosity of the engine oil changes according to the engine oil temperature.

• Because it takes time for the engine oil to return to the oil pan from each engine part and the viscosity of the engine oil is high when the engine is cold, engine oil drainage becomes insufficient.

• The engine oil returns to the oil pan and a sufficient amount of engine oil can be drained by raising the engine oil temperature to approx. 60 °C {140 °F} or more and waiting for 5 min or more.

• Add engine oil until it reaches the MAX mark on the dipstick to handle oil dilution (viscosity reduction) and engine oil consumption (oil amount reduction).

• The engine oil reaches the MAX mark on the dipstick when the engine oil is drained according to the procedure and the specified amount of engine oil is added.

1. Park the vehicle on level ground.

2. Warm up the engine to allow the engine oil temperature to reach 60 °C {140 °F} or more.

3. Stop the engine and wait for 5 min or more.

4. Remove the oil filler cap.

5. Remove the service hole cover (installed to front under cover No.2) used to drain the engine oil.

7. Drain the engine oil into a container.

8. Wait until the engine oil starts to drip.

9. Replace the oil pan drain plug gasket with a new one and install.

Note

• The amount of residual oil in the engine can vary according to factors such as the replacement method and oil temperature. Verify the oil level after engine oil replacement.

10. Add engine oil according to the following engine oil capacity (reference).

Engine oil (European (L.H.D. U.K.) specs.)

Item		Specification
Engine oil capacity (approx. quantity)	Oil replacement	4.4 L {4.6 US qt, 3.9 Imp qt}
	Oil and oil filter replacement	4.6 L {4.9 US qt, 4.0 Imp qt}
	Total (dry engine)	5.6 L {5.9 US qt, 4.9 Imp qt}
Recommended engine oil		Mazda Original Oil Supra-X 0W-20
Alternative engine oil		API SN or higher 0W-20

Engine oil (Except European (L.H.D. U.K.) specs.)

Item		Specification
Engine oil capacity (approx. quantity)	Oil replacement	4.4 L {4.6 US qt, 3.9 Imp qt}
	Oil and oil filter replacement	4.6 L {4.9 US qt, 4.0 Imp qt}
	Total (dry engine)	5.6 L {5.9 US qt, 4.9 Imp qt}
Grade		API SL/SM/SN or ILSAC GF-3/GF-4/GF-5

11. Install the oil filler cap.

12. Start the engine and verify that there is no oil leakage.

• If there is oil leakage, repair or replace the malfunctioning location.

13. Verify that the engine oil amount is at the MAX position on the oil level gauge.

14. Install the service hole cover.

15. If the engine oil is replaced, perform engine oil data reset.
