Replacement of Power Steering Oil

Model: Mazda 3 BK, MK 1 - Years 2003-2009
Part: Power steering fluid

The materials needed for the job include special oil, some tools, and a syringe. Open the reservoir cap. Remove the right front wheel arch liner to access the bottom of the reservoir. Place a container under the engine to collect the oil and a plastic sheet. Unscrew the oil cap on the reservoir pipe and let it drain completely. Close the cap and fill the reservoir with new oil. Start the engine and top up the oil to the max mark. Do not dispose of used oil in the environment; take it to the appropriate collection centres.
