Own a 2012 Mazda5 Sport, 95k miles. Purchased in 2016 at 73k miles.
Don't know if transmission fluid has been ever changed, but it is dark, so I am looking to do a drain and fill.
Planning on buying a few quarts of Mazda Genuine ATF M-V, Type M5, #0000-77-112E-01.
Interested in your opinions:
-Is the extra price for Mazda Genuine worth it vs. the universal brands?
-For those that buy Mazda Genuine transmission fluid, where do you usually get it, looking at Amazon or zoomzoomnationparts.com. This stuff ain't cheap.
-Should 4 quarts be sufficient for 1 drain and fill? I don't want to buy too much as (per orders from my wife) storage space is limited.
-Assuming this is the first time doing a drain and fill, when should I do it again?
-Anything else I am not considering?
Thank you
