Hello. Quick_lude -san.

You may already get this information, but there are a few kinds of grades recommended on the manual depending on the outside temprature.

10W-30 (-20C .... +40C)
5W-30 (-25C ... +40C)
0W-20 (-35C .... +40C)

Thank you very much. So Mazda doesn't recommend any 40 weight oil in Japan then? Interesting.
