- This is the process of performing an oil and filter change on a 2019 Mazda CX-5. This is the same process used for most consumer vehicles with slight adjustments in location of filter access and type of oil/filter. Enjoy!
This video rocks. Just got charged $100 for an oil change at Pep Boys and decided never again. I’ll come back and update after doing this myself next time!
OMG! This might be the best designed vehicle for an oil & filter change I have ever worked on. Mazda I'm impressed.
I was honestly surprised myself
Wait til you see a vehicle with downward facing oil filter lol
@jwilh15 I mean how much more downward do you want then this?
Wow, the bolt and oil filter are next to each other making much easier to perform the oil change!. New Toyotas are a hassle!
I love learning how to maintain my vehicle. Your video was very clear and straight forward.
Small tip, don’t remove oil fill cap till after you remove drain plug. This way less splurge of oil initially when plug removed, then take filler cap off.
Nicely done. Clear video with easy to follow directions. Thanks!
Thanks for the straightforward video.
I’m almost looking forward to getting this done now. Lol. I’m used to my 02 Frontier where you have to twist your arm around a bunch of stuff to take the filter off and it makes a complete mess of everything. It’s not hard but this seems like a way more oil change friendly environment.
This is super helpful, thank you!
Gonna do my first oil change on my cx5. Great video!! 👍
Hope all went well! Thanks for watching!
Just got a new CX-5 yesterday. Great video! Thanks
How is the cx5 holding up? Just bought one 3 weeks ago
@@RobertBeedle It's been fantastically fun and flawless. No issues whatsoever
The best video.The camera shows all the most important angles.Thanks
Glad you liked it!
The camera angle is pretty good
Lesson learned: I change the filter first. After dropping a slippery filter into a catch pan of hot oil, (splashing oil all over), I now change to filter first.
I also do the filter first but don’t put the new one on until I drain everything.
So you want the bolt to be loose when you take off oil filter that wai just like a can of liquid 2 Holes allows all oil to come out
Legendary! Thank you sir!
I just did the first oil change on my 2021 CX-5 (at 800 miles), and I noticed that Mazda had less than 5 qts of oil in the engine, and it's suppose to be 5.1 qts. I also replaced the original oil drain plug (and washer) with a magnetic oil drain plug (and washer). After putting in that 5 qt. bottle of synthetic oil, put in another .4 qt to bring the oil up to the full mark. I also made sure to put oil into the filter before installing, and lubricated the gasket with some oil. I replaced the old filter with the recommended Mazda filter.
Since there have been some cars damaged while in the possession of dealerships, I decided to pass on the complimentary oil change. Besides, there's enough ground clearance to get under the CX-5 to do the oil change, especially after using a 1.5" thick board under each front tire, giving me about 9" of ground clearance.
thats some paranoia there. I commend you for checking everything to the T, and I guess for many new drivers or first time owning a new car its only normal. But I wouldnt worry too much about it. Engine break in, oil burning, and other reasons why it was short a very small amount. That isn't going to damage the engine, heck if it was missing 1 to 2 qts of oil it wouldnt damage it. Only time I've really seen engine failure if it was completely gone of oil.
@@moialder252 My experience with the CX-5 is that the oil level should be half-way between the two dots on the stick. When the engine is hot, the level will usually end up between half-way and full. This is exactly where it should be. Mazda engineers know exactly what the correct oil amount is. Follow the manual and everything will be fine.
Great, easy-to-understand video. Thank you! I’m gonna go be my wife’s hero now.
Thank's for the straight forward video. Cheers
I am so happy it helped! Thank you for watching!
Well done sir. Great video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome and simple video!!!
Right to the point. Thanks.
Good video. A few suggestions: Never, ever use a Fram oil filter! Lube the sealing ring with NEW oil. Fill the filter with new oil before installing. Use a new gasket on the drain plug and torque to 23-30 ft lbs.
I can respect that feedback for sure. Thank you!
I agree
What's wrong with using fram oil filters?
@john Archibald, also want to know why not use Fram oil filters?
@@PokemanOkie they're very cheaply made and not the greatest.
great video
Thanks for the video. I hate the Mazda underbody protection panels. I would recommend making sure there are no leaks before reinstalling panel, remove filter first and fill the new one with oil, change crush gasket each time, use genuine Mazda filter for warranty, video the full change if you are doing it yourself and keep your receipts for warranty.
I’m definitely not going as far as video changing my oil every time. That is crazy. Mazda would need to prove it was poor oil that caused the problem
Why would anyone downvote this nice video?
Thank you Ozan! I appreciate your support!
When do I know if I need washer or is that a preference also?
Excellent video sir. I love instructional videos that get right to the point and no unnecessary talking. Very helpful
I appreciate that!
Thank you!! ❤
Thanks got it done🎉 now time to zoom zoom
Thanks bud just changed mine
Glad I could help
Wife's CX-5 is due. I'll be using a WIX filter though, versus the Fram.
I wish my infotainment screen stayed that nice. Mazda detailed it and scratched it all up
Thank You
Always take out the oil filter first is a good practice. Then dump the pan oil.
so has anyone had issues measuring the amount of oil off the dipstick? i cant seem to get it correct.
Yes, I seem to have that issue as well. I basically removed a little over 4 quarts of oil, and put in about the same amount. The dipstick is all over the place with the reading.
Great video, right on
Helpful to know which cover it's under and nice that the filter and drain are so close together but what moron at Mazda thought putting those plastic clips on there was even remotely a good idea is beyond me.
Why is there both a scheduled maintenance and oil change resets? Don't they track the same thing?
With Mazda the scheduled maintenance includes tire rotations and other things at different intervals like spark plugs, air filters, brake inspections, system flushes, etc
@@jstan022 tire rotation is already its own maintenance item in the screen. Scheduled maintenance is basically tracking the same thing as the oil change monitor.
Correct, the all of Mazdas scheduled services align with every 5K miles just like the oil change interval. Oil changes occur in each scheduled maintenance visit. The separate tire rotation marker could be as a reminder to other mechanics if you go somewhere else for an oil change or if you are doing maintenance yourself. Keep in mind also that oil changes can sometimes be 5K miles OR every 3 months depending on how much you drive. This could also be why they are separate.
Where do you dispose the oil after you drain it ? Is it safe to go in the trash or ?
You can usually take it to any oil change/tire center to dispose of it. You can also check with your local waste management to see if they have a disposal location. It shouldn’t go into a regular trash can as it’s considered an environmental hazard. Hope this helps!
Great info video , we’re do you buy oil and tools from i have Mazda Cx 5 2017 GT I am from Toronto CAN. Unable to source any tips or referrals can you provide really appreciate that
Thanks! I was able to get everything from Walmart here in the states. Any auto parts store will work too. They are pretty universal items fortunately.
I changed mine a few days ago using the same Motor oil but different filter . I poured 4.5 qt into my engine . I reset my dash , but now and then I still get the low oil pressure lights on . How strange. Did you experience that issue ?
I haven’t had that issue. You may want to get the vehicle checked by your dealership or other trusted service.
change the crush washer. Looking at leaks if you don't.
Make sure to warm the engine up to get the oil warm before changing
0:56 those are 8mm screw heads, in case anyone is wondering.
Thank you David!
You don't put a new crush washer on with the oil drain plug? They're really not that expensive. I found them on eBay last night for $6.99, for 20 washers. For me, that's good for 20 years.
Thats good advice. I haven't had any issues reusing it but you're totally right about it not being expensive and, why not get new each time.
@@jstan022 the ol saying of replacing crush washer goes from every make and model vehicle, but i never experienced oil leaks or anything negative of reusing the existing one even after 100K miles on various vehicles. Another part that they nickel and dime you.
What do you do with the used oil?
You can take the used oil to an auto repair shop such as PepBoys and they’ll have a place to safely dump the oil.
AutoZone or O'Reilly's will probably take your oil, also.
It looks like it should be 2 of those push fasteners. You started with an empty hole that looks just like the hole you pulled the fastener from.
Pothole? Haha. Not sure what happened to it
@@jstan022 I wipe the oil off of the filter boss, then add some to the O-ring. Since you didn't wipe yours, there was plenty. I haven't read all the comments. I imagine there are plenty about the crush washer and seating torque when you put the drain plug back in.
BTW, I think mine only had one push fastener too, so I added one. Maybe they come from the factory like that.
Remove the oil filler cap,dipstick and the filter this makes the oil flows freely
Where are the buttons you are using???????
Why doesnt it say it uses 5 quarts of oil in the manual?
The new 2021 owners manuals say ~5.1 quarts for CX5 turbos
Hey can u use any oil filter? Want to do mine its gonna be my first time
Yes, as long as you choose the right model number of the filter that is listed in the book when you go to the auto store.
@@jstan022 thank you
It's best to use the same filter that Mazda uses.
3.31You should pre-fill your oil filter so you don’t have a dry start.
Please use glove I have a small cut in my hand and got it infected.I learned the hard way
How much does all the tools cost？
The initial cost is about $30 if you do the pan, funnel and simple socket set. Ramps will be an extra $40 so $70 starting from scratch...
I'm watching this cause I'm hunting what my next vehicles going to be and I wanna see how easy they are to do oil changes at home. Does anyone have the CX5 and would you recommend it?
I bought one last November. Every time that I drive I like it more and more. It is a well-built quality vehicle. They did this one right.
I have my Grand Touring for 4 years now bought it brand new back in Dec of 2016, other than oil a change and complete set of Weathertech, it' drives like the first day I got it.
And depending on where you live, you will have to decide on which drivetrain you want, the front wheel drive works for me and I save a few grands.
I’ve had my 2019 CX-5 Touring since October of 2019. I put almost 30,000 miles on it so far and I LOVE it. It feels luxurious without the luxurious price tag. I recommend it!
I just bought a 2021 CX-5 Carbon Edition Turbo, but it only has 299 miles right now, but I'm actually looking forward to changing the oil. It will be a breeze. When I bought the car, the dealership gave me a complimentary oil change, so I'll let them change the oil at 1,000. We never know what metal particles could be in the oil during the break-in period.
Is it me or is a real pita to see the level on this dip stick.
FYI. Based on Mobil’s website, the oil that you use is not the recommended oil
Thanks for the heads up!
This oil change was such a pain. 0w-20 oil has such a watery consistency and wants to splash everywhere. Oil filter underneath ALWAYS makes a mess. Gotta make sure your pan is large enough and/or far enough back to catch the oil as it shoot diagonally from the oil pan, then slowly creeps back as the oil pressure dissipates.
My Jetta oil change is clean and easy. Drain plug hole diameter is smaller, so draining oil is much more predictable and doesnt shoot out like a rocket. Also uses 5w-40 so it doesnt splash like water. Oil filter is right on top of the motor, so it never makes a mess and is easy to change.
Some people like to think Japanese brands are superior and it absolutely blows my mind
You pull the dip stick half way out to break the vacuum when filling your oil.
The oil cap is off. Therefore, no vacuum.
1.19 You are missing one of those plastic rivets there should be two.
How much does 5 quarts of oil cost there? In Canada it's $60, cheaper to get it done at dealer
like 20bucks on sale
where do you live? Canadian Tire is like 30 dollars for penzoil full synthetic. Kirkland is even cheaper at costco when on sale
@@nobodyimportant_23 Wow, I don't know about you guys, but I live in Southern California, and I order the best - Amzoil OE online at $30 for 1 gallon jugs - I get two at a time to save even more money (plus I shop for oil for other vehicles to get the free shipping). Just didi my own oil change, cost me about $35 for the oil, $6 for the Fram oil filter (I will be going back to Amzoil filters as they now have them in stock again). Under $50 total, dealership wanted to charge be $110 plus they hound you for buying other things.
What size is the socket for the drain plug?
for me it was a 14mm
The 14mm wrench was too small for my plug, It might have been a 15mm, but I didn't have one, so I had to use a crescent wrench. I replaced the original plug with a 14mm magnetic oil plug, though.
Mine is a 17mm
you didn't replace the washer, and didn't show the kind of washer needed to be replaced. it's also not super clear if I really need to lift the car or no.
You will definitely need to lift the car. What washer are you referencing to? The only things that come off are the oil screw which you just put back in once you have drained the oil and then the filter is all one piece. No separate washers :)

@@michaelkuzmin you can use them if you want. Haven’t had a need on mine yet. I guess it all depends on preference
@@jstan022 I see, thanks. I also got a high powered titanium magnetic screw. Waiting for it to arrive from China to do my first oil change 😅
where did you get your screw, have a link?
my owners manual for a 2019 cx 5 says 4.8 qts. not good to overfill.
Please don’t recommend Fran filters. They’re absolutely trash. A wix filter is much better and only $12.
NEVER USE FRAM. They are GARBAGE. AND FILL THE NEW OIL FILTER FIRST!! THEN SCREW ON. Use CLEAN OIL to lube the filter gasket and clean the mating surface.
You stripped the screw, didn't show anything about replacing the crush washer, and used a Fram filter. All around, bad job!
Thanks Carson! Have a great day!
There is nothing wrong with fram filters no matter what jim bob told you.
4 quarts of oil, 1 quart of MMO!
Fram filter casing is too thin. If you need any kind of tool to get it off they collapse. Purolator Boss are better filters!
