The Ford/Motorcraft oil is made by Fuchs in Germany. Just a warning, it is NOT API GL-4 certified. It is recommended for gl-3 or gl-4 systems. Mazda may use this against you if you ever have a warranty claim for your tranny.

How hard would it be for them to tell the difference? Technically, the tranny oil doesn't need to be swapped out during the powertrain warranty.
