you may need a specific wrench, or oil filter cap/cup, to remove the filter, depending on engine size. If my memory serves me correctly some of engines in the Mazda3 are the type that take a cartridge filter instead of a regular spin on filter. Check to see which filter you have before deciding what wrench to buy. hope this helps!Do I need a oil filter wrench to change oil on 2008 Mazda3?
I don't know what filter wrench you want to use but I use a plier type filter wrench to get the filter off, it fits in any filter. The brand is imperial, here is a picture http://rds.yahoo.com/_ylt=A0WTeff2Z35Ibk鈥?/a> . One thing to remember is to NEVER TIGHTEN THE FILTER WITH THE WRENCH.
