How to Care for an Older MAZDA CX-9

As a family SUV, the Mazda CX-9 has long been favored as a carpooling vehicle and bringing along bulky items and gear. If you’re the proud owner of this model, you can continue to schedule maintenance appointments at Superior Mazda. How else can you care for this model and just as importantly, what’s the best Mazda CX-9 oil type?

Use the Recommended Oil

According to the manufacturer, the Mazda CX-9 requires an oil change every 7,500 miles or every 12 months, whichever one comes first. In addition, it’s important to use the oil recommended in the vehicle user manual. In this case, the suggested oil variety is SAE 5W-30.

When you service the model at our dealership, we always use the oil recommended by the manufacturer. While other oils may suffice, they may not produce the optimal engine performance and fuel mileage.

Get a Tire Checkup

The tires may be more prone to wear if you frequently drive at or near weight capacity with passengers and cargo. Check the tire PSI once every 30 days and fill them with air as needed to the recommended PSI. You can find this information on the driver’s side of the door jamb.

Only Use OEM Replacement Parts

Aftermarket parts may be cheaper, but they’re not designed to provide maximum performance or longevity, because they’re made to be compatible with multiple models. Use parts recommended by the manufacturer. Furthermore, schedule repairs at the dealership to ensure repairs are performed by a Mazda certified technician.
