All CX-5s from 2013 on use FL-22 long-life coolant, Mazda ATF-FZ automatic transmission fluid, a Group 35 battery, and a CR2032 key fob battery. Parts that are cheap and easy to find regardless of which generation you own. ## Mazda CX-5 by model year - [2025](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/mazda/cx-5/2025) - [2024](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/mazda/cx-5/2024) - [2023](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/mazda/cx-5/2023) - [2022](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/mazda/cx-5/2022) - [2021](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/mazda/cx-5/2021) - [2020](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/mazda/cx-5/2020) - [2019](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/mazda/cx-5/2019) - [2018](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/mazda/cx-5/2018) - [2017](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/mazda/cx-5/2017) - [2016](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/mazda/cx-5/2016) - [2015](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/mazda/cx-5/2015) - [2014](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/mazda/cx-5/2014) - [2013](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/mazda/cx-5/2013) ## Sources - [Mazda USA official 2019 CX-5 owner's manual, engine/electrical specifications (battery Ah, spark plug part numbers)](https://www.mazdausa.com/static/manuals/2019/cx5/contents/10020101.html) - [Mazda USA official 2019 CX-5 owner's manual, coolant/lubricant classifications](https://www.mazdausa.com/static/manuals/2019/cx5/contents/10020100.html) - [Mazda USA official 2025 CX-5 owner's manual, scheduled maintenance intervals](https://www.mazdausa.com/static/manuals/2025/cx-5/contents/07020201.html) - [NHTSA recall 18V-426, side curtain air bags](https://api.nhtsa.gov/recalls/recallsByVehicle?make=mazda&model=cx-5&modelYear=2018) - [NHTSA recall 19V-497, PCM software stall](https://api.nhtsa.gov/recalls/recallsByVehicle?make=mazda&model=cx-5&modelYear=2018) - [NHTSA recall 21V-875, low-pressure fuel pump](https://api.nhtsa.gov/recalls/recallsByVehicle?make=mazda&model=cx-5&modelYear=2019) - [NHTSA TSB library, Service Alert SA-041/18 rocker arm inspection (cylinder deactivation)](https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2019/MC-10159203-0001.pdf) - [Mazda Connect Infotainment Settlement, official settlement site (class definition: CX-5 2016-2020)](https://www.mazdainfotainmentsettlement.com/) - [ClassAction.org, 2021 Mazda valve stem seal oil consumption proposed class action](https://www.classaction.org/news/five-2021-mazda-vehicle-models-burn-excessive-oil-due-to-defect-class-action-says) - [CarCostCanada, 2019 CX-5 Signature Diesel road test (168 hp / 290 lb-ft)](https://carcostcanada.com/blog/2019-mazda-cx-5-signature-diesel-road-test/) - [Wikipedia, Mazda CX-5 second generation engine history](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mazda_CX-5) - [Mazda parts forum, PY8W-14-302 turbo oil filter and 5.1 qt fill confirmation](https://mazdas247.com/forum/threads/oil-filter-2-5l-turbo.123872068/) Specifications vary with engine option, production date, and market.
