Official instructions do not say anything regarding the filter replacement and sump removal. Bummer. Called mazda today to order oil and filter and they told that if I drain the oil from the sump and replace the filter, that'd be only 3.5 litres of oil. If I do the flush with the mazda, they do it with special machine and they put in 10 litres??? That's a lot. And moreover, they don't drop the sump and don't replace the filter when flushing.
My understanding is that without any external transmission cooler lines (or any other type of external lines) that a flush can't be performed on these transmissions.
