For a 2005 Mazda3 with a 2.0 L 4-cylinder engine, the oil capacity is 4.5 quarts or 4.3 liters including the filter. The recommended oil for best performance is 5W-20 Synthetic, and the torque for the drain plug should be between 22-30 ft/lbs. The numbers in 5W-20 indicate the oil's thickness when starting up (5) and at operating speeds (20), with "W" representing winter. Regular oil changes, along with a new filter, should be done every 7,500 miles or when the oil life indicator notifies you, as oil doesn't last indefinitely. The price of oil typically ranges from $8 to $13 per quart depending on the store and brand. Keeping up with oil changes is crucial for maintaining a clean and smoothly running engine.
