We have a 2014 Mazda 6 with 86000 miles and owned it since new with no issues. Should we change the transmission fluid/filter, coolant, and belts now? Spark plugs were changed about 15,000 miles ago and we have kept up with oil and filter changes completing them before the recommended mileage.
Thank you
Thank you
Should we change the transmission fluid/filter
What do you have? manual? automatic?
automatic: every 60k
coolant
Should be described in the owner's manual. Or you can ask your dealership service desk.
Probably every 60k or 5 years.
, and belts now?
serpentine belt needs to be inspected
Automatic transmission. Neither have been replaced before. Only air filters, spark plugs, and regular oil changes. Vehicle runs like a dream. Belts look good but will be replaced. Very glad this has a timing chain. Thanks for your comments
You should have changed the trans fluid and filter at 30-50,000 miles. I hope your transmission isn't damaged.
Thank you
change the transmission fluid/filter,
Yes. Drain, refill and no flush. Check FAQ for more info.
coolant,
Check the color before changing.
and belts
Check with a mechanic before changing the belts. You could change it now if you wanted to.
Belts look good but I’m going to replace them anyway. Thank you!
