Recommended Oil for the MAZDA CX-9

What is the recommended Mazda CX-9 oil type? To keep your engines performing at optimal levels around Rancho Cucamonga, Mazda recommends full-synthetic SAE 5W-30 oil. That said, different engines require different quantities and oil types, so always check your owner’s manual before DIY-ing a Mazda CX-9 oil change in Claremont.

Synthetic vs. Conventional Oil

The recommended oil for the Mazda CX-9 is synthetic—but what’s the difference between synthetic and conventional oil? While both are petroleum-based products built to lubricate and protect your engine from high temperatures as your traverse Upland, there are a few key differences:

  • Conventional oil is cheaper but is less refined and oxidizes faster than synthetic oil. This requires a higher frequency of oil changes, negating the cost savings it may have originally provided. 
  • Synthetic oil is more expensive but has more additives for longer-lasting performance and higher viscosity in extreme temperatures. As the recommended Mazda CX-9 oil type, it allows drivers to only change their oil every 7,500 miles in optimal conditions.
