I'll change your oil for 30$ Don't listen to these guys. It's like rocket science. There is like one whole nut you gotta take off. And if your not careful the oil will spill and burn a hole in the cement floor.

If your in the Fontana area you can swing by on Sunday's to Just Tires @

JUST TIRES
9550 SIERRA AVE
FONTANA, CA 92335

I can do it for you for free if you bring your own oil and filter, there's a 24 hour autozone nearby as well to get them if you like. But if you like a Mazda filter I have one for the FD as well on hand. Just ask for the FD guy

And OP- I'm not being a dick, but you seem to have probably just recently purchase your FD from what it seems, and if you can't do something as basic as changing the oil, you're going to be paying out of your *** for maintenance/repairs on this car. Just trying to help you out
