Additional Notes

  • The Mazda CX-3 DK (EU) rear differential holds 0.35 liter across all listed 4WD configurations, covering both the SKYACTIV-D diesel variants and the SKYACTIV-G 2.0 petrol variant.
  • A capacity of 0.35 liter is a relatively small fill volume, consistent with a compact rear differential unit rather than a larger axle assembly requiring a full overhaul quantity.
  • Under severe use conditions, a fluid change interval of 45,000 km applies to the rear differential on the SKYACTIV-D 1.5 (77 kW) 4WD, covering the 2015-2018 model years.
  • The same 45,000 km severe-use change interval carries over to the SKYACTIV-D 1.8 (85 kW) 4WD, which spans the 2018-2020 model years, with the fill capacity remaining at 0.35 liter.
  • The SKYACTIV-G 2.0 (110 kW) 4WD, covering 2015-2020, also specifies a 45,000 km change interval under severe use conditions alongside the same 0.35 liter capacity.
  • The SKYACTIV-D 1.5 and SKYACTIV-D 1.8 engines represent a displacement and power output progression within the diesel lineup, yet both share an identical rear differential fluid capacity and severe-use service interval.
  • No change interval is listed for normal use conditions across any of the configurations, meaning the 45,000 km interval is exclusively tied to severe use operation in the specifications provided.
