Manual Transmission Oil (Fluid) for Skyactiv (2012 ~ )

As you knwo, Skyactiv 6-sp Manual transmission is different compared with non-skyactiv.

My car (2012 Mazda 3 gs-sky manual) is almost 2 years and 50,000km on it.

I am planning to change Manual Transmission Oil (Fluid)

Howeber, there is no information about Manual Transmission Oil in owner's manual because Skyactiv MT doesn't need to change Manual Transmission Oil.

I searched some posts in this forum, but I couldn't find the answers of my queations.


I have two questions.

(1) what type of Manual Transmission Oil (Fluid) should I buy for Skyactiv MT (2012) ???

75W-90
75W-85
75W-80

Or GL-4 or GL-5 ?


(2) How much amount of oil should I buy for Skyactiv MT (2012) ???

3 qt.? or 4 qt.?


Please tell me the answers if you know !

Thank you so much in advance

It's not cheap, I bought it from the dealer, and I used just under 3 litres.
