Assuming .8qt is the full size, and I replaced 220ml each time, I removed 30% of the old oil. 70% remained.. With the 2nd change, it now has 49% of the old oil still remains!

I did my 2nd round and it took longer due to more cleanup. This time the black oil took longer to drip out of the syringe! I replaced approx half quart. 1qt=946ml - have about 500ml still remaining in the bottle. I believe the last change cleaned up the system and more black deposits on the top...

My windshield got a star crack - 2013 model. In some sense I am worried about ripping off the factory seal and removing the old one. Wondering if there a better windshield that is legal in California? Any reputed shops for doing this? Can I leave the star crack unattended? Have insurance...

Will the aquarium hand pump reach the reservoir through the bends? I guess the aquarium hand pump tube needs to contact the surface of the oil to suck it out? Unless the aquarium hand pump tube is narrow and flexible, it would be harder? Any advice or product links?

Does it include part?

I was going to top it off - but found the oil is black! Has 95k and I only know the car since a year ago from 86k. Should I be flushing it? I can not do flush on it - so how much am I looking at paying a shop for labor? How many quarts does it take to flush?

Mazda Genuine ATF M-III or MaxLife multi-vehicle ATF is better (same price though)?

I did the Tranny Flush at the dealer soon after I bought it a year ago - they flushed it twice as it was very dark in color. Dealer and OReilly (MaxLife multi-vehicle ATF (red bottle)) have them for the same price. Is one better - I only need to buy a quart?

I checked the Power steering fluid level PS seems down - I can not see it What fluid should I use - where do I get it from? Rock auto doesn't have any listed.

Yes Cabin filter - your videos are very helpful, thank you

I bought DENSO 4534016 Electrostatically charged media from RockAuto - same price as Amazon

Thank you @Vasy

Not fluid flush My Acura Integra needs brake fluid flush every 3 yrs. In that process they inspect the brake by removing it. M5 has long life fluid - so how often should have brake inspected on M5?
