2010 Mazda MX-5 Miata oil FAQ
Is the oil capacity measured with or without the filter?
Capacity condition matters. With filter includes a new filter. Service fill is the typical drain-and-fill amount. Dry fill is for a fresh empty engine only.

Retailer catalogs can update separately. Confirm the exact 2010 Mazda MX-5 Miata selector at checkout before you buy.
Do I also need to match the OEM oil approval?
Yes. Viscosity is only one part of the oil spec. Match the oil approval listed in your owner's manual or on the bottle before checkout.
How often should I change the oil on a 2010 Mazda MX-5 Miata?
Castrol's service data indicates a 7,500 mi / 6 mo change interval for the 2010 Mazda MX-5 Miata. Always follow your owner's manual and oil-life monitor. Severe service may require a shorter interval.
