Mazda recommends having your 2023 Mazda CX-5’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your CX-5 in the above table. No matter the mileage, your CX-5 may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Mazda if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, adventure off-road, or drive at low speeds for long distances. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Mazda CX-5. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 2023 Mazda CX-5

  • What can low oil do to my Mazda CX-5 engine? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, engine parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and cause your Mazda CX-5 engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Mazda CX-5 oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Mazda CX-5 exhaust smoke grayish or blue? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, damaged piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who offers Mazda CX-5 oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Mazda CX-5 oil changes and more. Our expert technicians will also suggest the best oil for your vehicle, address oil leaks, and swap out your oil filter.
  • What can cause the oil light on my Mazda CX-5 to illuminate? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Mazda CX-5 oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Do I need to replace my CX-5’s oil filter when changing my oil? It's recommended that you replace your Mazda CX-5 oil filter with every oil change. Otherwise, you send fresh, clean motor oil through a dirty filter. That's like putting on muddy socks after a shower.
