Power Steering Fluid

[RichB]

I don't know if this is the right place to post this but I want to top off my power steering reservoir and I am wondering if anyone has any recommendations on what to use. Thanks in advance!

look in the manual. It's automatic transmission fluid. theres specific requirements in the manual for what to use.

Yea, it says ATF M-III or Equivalent (e.g. Dexron II). When I go to the store to look, I am not seeing anything labeled with these specs. I'm having no luck online either.

Just found THIS. I'm guessing it will work.

idk what auto store your going to but I was able to find a dexron II atf fluid at autozone when I had to do it installing my cpe fmic...It was written on the back really small I had to read the whole label to find it.

I was trying Autozone and Advance. Guess I didn't take the time to read the small print in the back.

Just go to the dealer

I bought mine there; not expensive, sold in quarts and it is exactly what Mazda recommends for your car. It is the M3 fluid, as stated above.
