The Mazda CX7 utilizes Dexron ViATF Transmission Fluid with a capacity of 2.69 quarts. This fluid acts as a lubricant, preventing heat-related damage to the transmission components. To change the fluid in your Mazda, expect to pay around $50 to $60 for labor and $50 for parts. It is recommended to have the transmission fluid replaced every 90,000 miles. Signs that it may be time for a fluid change include grinding noise from the transmission, difficulty shifting gears, gear slippage, sudden surges, and delayed vehicle movement after shifting into gear.
The CX-7 does not use dexron transmission fluid. The 2.5-liter engine requires ATF M-V (it is different from MERCON V) and the 2.3-liter engine uses JWS3309 (also known as Toyota T-IV).
The Mazda CX-7 requires the use of Dexron VI fluid for its automatic transmission system.
The Mazda CX 7 relies on Dexron VI ATF fluid for its automatic transmission to run smoothly and securely.
