Brake Fluid change
My 2003 323F requires a brake fluid change. Does this require special equipment or process at a Mazda dealer in order to ensure that all the fluid is changed in the ABS system.

No special equipment required.
Empty the brake fluid reservoir as much as you can, add fresh fluid, bleed from the wheel furthest away from the master cylinder & work you way around to the nearest wheel last. I always use about 700-800 mls when doing my own cars.

Thank you for that information. I asked because my son has a Ford Fiesta and the proper way to purge the ABS on that is using Ford's IDS system, otherwise there are channels and a small reservoir that hold brake fluid under normal bleeding.
I will now get the job done.
