How to Replace Engine Air Filter - Mazda 3 (2014-2018)
Do you want to make your Engine Struggle to breath? Well, that is exactly what happens when you don't change your vehicle's engine air filter. How? Ever try drinking through a pinched straw and how difficult it is to do that? That is what your car's engine is going through when it has to breathe air through a clogged air filter.
The gasoline engine on your 2014 Mazda 3 / 2015 Mazda 3 / 2016 Mazda 3 / 2017 Mazda 3 / 2018 Mazda 3 like every other internal combustion engine needs air to efficiently burn the fuel.
It can't just breathe the air from the atmosphere directly because the air is full of dirt, dust, moisture and other pollutants. You definitely don't want any of these to get in your engine. The air needs to be filtered. That is where the engine air filter comes in the picture. Engine air filter filters the air before it is used inside the engine.
Engine air replacement is a quick 3-4 minute process that you can easily perform at home without any tools whatsoever. A process that would cost you easily $50 in labor at your local dealership / mechanic shop in addition to the time spend and the inconvenience of calling and scheduling an appointment and taking time out of your schedule to go it replaced.
This video will show you how to perform an engine air filter replacement on your 2014 Mazda 3 / 2015 Mazda 3 / 2016 Mazda 3 / 2017 Mazda 3 / 2018 Mazda 3 in a detailed step-by-step way.

Great video. So many videos talk you through what to do but their hands cover up every thing and you see nothing. This or they have poor lighting and constantly apologize for it. Hands in the way don't help and dark video does no better. Thanks you! This is how a HOW TO video should be. Slow and where you can visually see what is going on as it's explained. THANKS this was perfect!

Thanks!! I get bothered when I look up what size filter to buy with proper detail, filters are located, then the site prompts to put the rltrim in then it shows message, "looks like this won't fit this vehicle. " The details, trim etc are directly from the VIN #. 😑

Thanks, very useful. I noticed just one more thing. On my filter there are arrows for left and right how should be installed. The left and right it is from looking at the car from the front when you install the filter or from how you sit in the car on the steering wheel ? I couldn't see if yours has something similar. Thanks! Good luck with the channel!

Quoted $400 to replace the engine air filter?? That is STEEP. Guess inflation is really affecting the dealer at a whole different level.
Good, but clips in different places. Slide out kind of difficult.

I see. That's odd. Cause this video was made using a 2014 MY vehicle as well. Ohh well, I am glad you were able to benefit from the video and change the air filter yourself. 👍😊
I have a 2014 Mazda 3 and I'm getting really bad gas mileage. I never check the air filter. I will check now to see if it needs to be replaced. How much increase in gas mileage will I see if I replace the dirty filter with a new clean filter?

It depends on how bad the air filter is. But it won't just be an improvement in gas mileage but also overall engine performance
