I’m looking to start changing the oil in my Mazda on my own but I’m not sure where to start. What kind of oil should I be using for my 2010 Mazda 3?

Changing your oil at home is a great way to save money on maintenance costs! The
2010 Mazda 3’s
oil type is SAE 5W-20 motor oil per the owner’s manual.
Regardless of whether your Mazda 3 is equipped with a 2.0-liter or 2.5-liter inline four-cylinder engine, 5W-20 synthetic motor oil can be used.
You can also use your Mazda owner’s manual to look up how much oil your engine takes and how frequently you should be changing it. If you misplaced your manual, you can likely find it online.
While changing your oil at home is one way to save money on your Mazda ownership costs, another way is to update your car insurance regularly using
