If you own a 2017 Mazda6, the recommended coolant is the Mazda FL22 type. If you can't find this specific coolant, some '17 Mazda6 drivers suggest using Pentofrost A2 as an alternative. When switching coolant types, make sure not to mix incompatible ones. Look for labels like OAT, OET, and HOAT on the coolant bottles. If you're uncertain about what coolant is in your Mazda6, especially if you purchased it used, consider doing a complete drain and refill to ensure the system is filled with an approved coolant from a reputable manufacturer.
In the 2017 Mazda 6, they use environmentally friendly ethylene glycol as a coolant.
