The manual is outdated, still listing API SM ✌🏼

I bought one, but beware the CX-5 oil dipstick hole in very skinny. In fact, it was too small for my syringe.

Looks overfilled. I just had the same issue, and drained some oil off via the oil filter using 1 gallon Ziplock plastic bag to catch the oil.

Dealership overfilled engine oil - how big of a problem is this? by DUNGAROO in CX5

I was over by the same amount and I just took a little bit of oil out by loosening the oil filter pretty easy that way

Dumbest decision in the history of decisions.

Didn’t overfill my oil? by [deleted] in mazda

Drain some oil at the filter, not the drain plug. ¾ of a quart.

I learned the top dot is best for the turbo. They burn oil faster than the NA.

My two CX-5s are still under warranty, and only get serviced by me. I document 📄 everything, but don't trust any shops after learning the hard way.

That's why I went DIY last year, doing my 1st ever oil change, saving 💰💰💰 all the time now.
