Perfect and easy. Thank you! I've never changed on a mazda before but I see it's easy and nothing special needed.

I've never known a car to have an Allen plug like that 😮 It makes me even more excited to change this car's oil for the first time!

Awesome, detailed yet short video; thanks for uploading! 👍👍👍

Thank you. This was my first oil change

Thank you so much! Perfect tutorial video🙏🏽🍻🔥

thanks great video!

Nice tips sir thanks for sharing done

Excellent tutorial

Great video.

Thank you Sir.

Nice video. What's the size of the crush washer?

I went to a jiffy lube near me to get an oil change and they told me that the plug was stripped, how did they know it was stripped without removing the plug? Also how would I be able to repair it or is it repairable?

Great video! Do you recommend changing the drain plug washer each change? I see some oil filters for sale with drain plug washers being sold with them.

If it comes with one, sure. If not I would not worry about it unless it leaks. I have never changed it on my infiniti g35 and it has 150,000 miles and is a 2006

Have you had issues using the FRAM Ultra and do you do extended oil change intervals? I know these engines (non turbo) requires a decent flow and abuse the oil a lot more than your average 4 cyl. Plus the OEM filters don't have a ADBVwhile most aftermarket ones do except for like WIX for example since they built their filters, for this car, based on Mazda specifications.

@@dannyjohnsonsgarage Awesome and thanks for the response. I may try out the newer Supertech filters since they are now rated for 20K miles. In my previous cars I used the FRAM Ultra with no issues. I figured I'd ask because I read somewhere before that the reason Mazda specified their oil filters without the anti drain back valve is because of how the Skyactiv engines operates and possible restriction of flow if the filter had a ADBV.

Ho the pressure is going back to normal after replacement filter and oil change ?

Good video

Danny What is the proper weight oil for a 2021 Mazda 6 Turbo? Synthetic or conventional? Thank you

All modern engines benefit from synthetic.

One thing you forgot to add was when you took the cover off to show where the oil pan and filter are located

Does it have to be an Allen wrench or will a regular wrench work? I have a 2019 Mazda 6

If the drain plug is an Allen head you’ll need an Allen. You’ll have to look what it has, but I don’t think this one was different than factory

No washer seal under the drain plug??? 😮

Hi, thanks for the tips, just one question how do you reset the oil sensor to stop the warning light coming on, without needing the diagnostic machine/p.c.

I know it's been a few weeks since you asked but you just hit the "INFO" button on the wheel, go to maintenance and it's in there some place (depending on the model I believe).

Excellent How-to video! What year was this Mazda 6? I am in the process of doing an oil change on my 2017 Mazda 6. I noticed that the drain plug in your video uses an 8 mm Allen fitting for removal. I haven't looked under my car yet but other Mazda 6 videos mention using a 17 mm socket to remove the drain plug. It seems like Mazda changed the drain plug design at some point.?

I thought it was odd to have the allen as well. It’s possible it had been changed at some point. I guess you’ll have to take a look to know for sure.

@@dannyjohnsonsgarage Yes, my 2017 Mazda 6 has the same oil drain plug. I bought the 8 mm hex tool so I could do the oil change. * I had seen another Mazda 6 video (for a 2018 I think) where a 17 mm drain bolt was used. * Thanks again for your video!

Hi I have two diesel mazda 6 2013 and figure it would be good for me to do these myself. As a complete noob I am asking: 1 How often should I do this 2. How does this fit in with regular dealership servicing? (eg When should I take my car in for other things) 3. Main benefits of doing oil myself as opposed to with a trusted dealer. Many Thanks!

1. I would recommend every 3,000 miles (4,800 kilometers) or what the service manual says. Most manufacturers are saying to go longer but it’s ruining engines 2. There should be a service manual in the glove box stating when to be in for other services as well. If you can’t find it, google search it and it’s pretty common to find it

@@dannyjohnsonsgarage but booking in for regular servicing would I just say “I’ve already changed the oil” and expect them to give me a discount ?

I just used the whole 5 quart jug and it’s on the low side of the dip stick.
