Gasket Installation Note

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Mazda CX-3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Apply engine oil to a new gasket.
    CAUTION:
    • Assemble the gasket to the correct position using the following procedure so that the gasket lip does not overlap the oil passage for the oil cooler. Otherwise, it could leak engine oil and damage the engine.
  2. Align the gasket lip to the gasket positioning areas of the oil cooler and assemble the gasket to the oil cooler.
