We cover the MX-5 Miata across the NB, NC and ND generations. Engines include the 1.8-liter BP, the 2.0-liter MZR and the 2.0-liter Skyactiv-G, with soft-top and retractable hardtop versions.



The 2017 Mazda MX-5 belongs to the fourth-generation MX-5 (ND), built for model years 2016–2026. Most procedures are shared with the other years of this generation, but engines, options and wiring changed from year to year, so the manual is made for the 2017 model year.
Check the model year on your VIN: on a 2017 vehicle the 10th character of the 17-digit VIN is “H”. Vehicles built for North America always carry the model year in that position; on some European or Australian vehicles it may be left unused, so in that case go by the registration papers or the build plate.
At about 9 years old, a 2017 vehicle often needs work on the cooling system, timing components, suspension bushings, motor mounts and corroded electrical connectors, all jobs where the exact factory procedure and torque values save time.
Same generation: 2016 Mazda MX-5, 2018 Mazda MX-5, 2019 Mazda MX-5, 2020 Mazda MX-5, 2021 Mazda MX-5.
