What transmission fluid & filter to use?
 

I am not sure why this is so hard but I am trying to identify exact part numbers for my Mazda 3.

I want to perform a transmission oil change. Drop the pan, clean it, new gasket, new filter, inspection then new oil. However, every place I go to seems to be just guessing at the parts and the oil. One says this while the other says that. I do not mind spending the extra money for the Mazda transmission fluid. I just want the correct fluid and parts.

Hopefully I have come to the right place for help.

2012 Mazda 3 hatchback, non-turbo, skyactive motor so I believe it is the 2.0, AUTO, 117k miles

I have added some pictures of the stickers on trans and trans dipstick.

I believe this FZ number is just the dipstick part number

For the skyactiv model, genuine fluid is "ATF FZ" . DO NOT USE Dexron or Mercon fluid.

They run a strainer rather than a filter, it won't hurt to replace it, just make sure it comes with new o rings. The Pan has no gasket, it uses sealant instead.
