For the 2018 Mazda CX5, the recommended oil is a full synthetic SAE 0W-20, with a 4-cylinder engine that can hold 4.8 quarts along with the filter change. If you're thinking about changing the oil yourself, it might not be as simple as it seems. Modern car designs make it challenging to do it at home, especially when it comes to changing the filter. This task can be tricky and might require specific tools that vary between manufacturers. At times, reaching the oil filter could involve removing other engine components or the sump guard. Unless you have experience working on your car, it's best to leave this job to the professionals. However, topping up various oils at home is something you can easily do yourself.
