First time I’ve seen a dealer turn down money.
Is it okay to switch my CX-50 to full synthetic 5w30?
5w30 is what’s in it now, it is just Mazda oil (whoever makes it). I think it may be a blend, but no one has comfirmed.
MazdaUSA on Twitter hasn’t replied to me in a year, so I will try here.
Look in your owner’s manual. Should be a chart that tells you the requirements for oil specs. You don’t have to stick with what they say off the lot.
Cars with the same engine are all over the world and require different weights for those climates.
It does give the weight and certifications. Nowhere does it say conventional, blend, or synthetic.
I have the turbo, 24 is coming in Monday.
Due to the recent flakiness around that engine in the CX-5, I would do exactly what the book says.
