Engine Type:
This generation of Mazda Millenia featured two primary engine options: a naturally aspirated 2.5L V6 and a supercharged 3.0L Miller Cycle V6.
Engine Code 2 5L:
KL-DE (2.5L V6)
Engine Code 3 0L Supercharged:
KJ-ZEM (3.0L Miller Cycle Supercharged V6)
2 5L Horsepower:
Approximately 170-175 hp
2 5L Torque:
Approximately 155-160 lb-ft
3 0L Supercharged Horsepower:
Approximately 210-215 hp
3 0L Supercharged Torque:
Approximately 210-215 lb-ft
Fuel System Type:
Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI)
ECU Type:
ECU (Engine Control Unit) managing fuel injection, ignition timing, and emissions.
Transmission Type:
Automatic Transmission
Manual Transmission Availability:
Manual transmission was generally not an option for the North American market Millenia.
Transmission Gears:
Likely a 4-speed automatic transmission (e.g., Mazda's 4-speed F-series automatic).
Transmission Fluid Type:
Specific ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) type will be detailed in the manual, likely Dexron III or equivalent.
Crash Test Data:
Specific NHTSA/IIHS ratings for these years are not readily available but would be detailed in a comprehensive manual if public data exists.
ABS:
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) was standard or optional depending on trim level.
Airbags:
Driver and passenger front airbags were standard.
Seatbelts:
Three-point seatbelts with pretensioners for front occupants.
Oil Change Interval:
Typically every 5,000-7,500 miles or 6 months, depending on driving conditions. Manual will specify exact interval and oil type.
Spark Plug Replacement:
Intervals will vary based on plug type (e.g., iridium plugs can last much longer). Manual will provide specific recommendations.
Timing Belt Replacement:
V6 engines typically have timing belts. Intervals are critical, often around 60,000-90,000 miles or 5-7 years. The manual will specify the exact interval and any associated components (tensioners, water pump).
Engine Oil Type:
Likely a synthetic or synthetic blend 5W-30 or 5W-40. Manual will specify exact API service classification and viscosity grade.
Coolant Type:
Mazda long-life coolant or a compatible Asian-vehicle specific coolant. Manual will detail capacity and type.
Brake Fluid Type:
DOT 3 or DOT 4 brake fluid. Manual will specify the exact requirement.
Common Issues 1:
Auto-tensioner pulley failure on the supercharged engine (KL-ZE/KJ-ZEM) can lead to belt slip and noise.
Common Issues 2:
Vacuum leaks in the intake manifold or associated hoses, particularly on the supercharged models.
Common Issues 3:
Transmission shifting issues or delayed engagement can occur with age and mileage. ATF changes are crucial.
Common Issues 4:
Ignition coil failure or spark plug wire degradation can lead to misfires.
Common Issues 5:
Power window regulator failures and issues with door lock actuators.
Mazda Positioning:
Mazda positioned the Millenia as a premium, near-luxury sedan, competing with established Japanese and American brands.
Generation Details:
The 1993-1996 models represent the first generation of the Mazda Millenia, introduced to the North American market.
Miller Cycle Engine:
A key differentiator was the optional supercharged Miller Cycle V6 engine, which offered improved efficiency and torque characteristics.
Production Period:
1993-2002 (North America)
