Old model Mazda 3 (BK spec) had the oil filter access hole miss aligned, they fixed it with the latest Mazda 3 (BL spec). No need to remove the stone tray now.

We just brought the new CX-5 home this weekend, we love it! I do all my own oil changes, but I've scouted the parts places and no one seem to stock 0-20 oil. How about filters? I use NAPA gold or Puroilater.

I recommend only using genuine Mazda oil & oil filters. Mazda spent a lot of money developing the new engines and the correct oil to match.

I agree, more especially the filter, but I know Walmart carries a couple 0-20 options.

Is there a site where the filters can be purchased, other than from the dealer?

Over here in NZ is 5w30. For CX-5 2.0L gas engine in North America: 0W-20 full synthetic. "Mazda genuine oil is used in your Mazda vehice and 0W-20 lubricant is recommended." "If OW-20 is not available, 5W-20 may be used however, it must be replaced OW-20 at the next oil change." Recommended viscosity: SAE 0W-20 "For maintenance service, Mazda recommends Mazda genuine parts and Castrol". |

Agreed, I will only use only Mazda specified (both) oil and filters.
Can I get a part number for the filter? |
