1996 Mazda Millenia Service and Repair Manual
The 1996 Millenia was sold in three trims and with two very different V6 engines, so year, engine and trim together decide which figures apply to a given car — a value carried over from an adjacent model year, or from the other engine in this two-engine lineup, will not match it.
Engines covered
- 2.5L V6 — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline
- 2.3L V6 — DOHC, supercharged, gasoline
Body styles covered
- 4-door sedan
Trims covered
- Base
- L
- S
Known issues on the 1996 Millenia. No recalls are on federal record for the 1996 Millenia, and owners have filed 18 complaints for the year. With no recall campaign pointing at a known-bad part, a fault on one of these cars has to be traced on its own merits rather than matched to a published campaign.
Whether the job is an owner-reported fault on the supercharged 2.3L V6 or a scheduled service on the 2.5L, the work stays on Mazda's own procedure and specification for this exact 1996 Millenia.
