The Mazda CX7 uses Dexron ViATF Transmission Fluid. It has a capacity of 2.69 quarts. Transmission fluid, similar to oil, is a lubricant and its purpose is to make sure that the various working parts of the transmission are not subject to damage from heat. The cost of getting the transmission fluid changed on Your Mazda is between $50 and $60 for labor and parts are priced at $50. You should get Your transmission fluid changed every 90,000 miles. The signs that You need a transmission fluid change include a grinding noise coming from the transmission, problems shifting gears, slippage during gear shifts, sudden unexplained surges, and a delay in movement after You place the vehicle in gear.

CX-7 does NOT take dexron. The 2.5l uses ATF M-V (not to be confused with MERCON V, they are not the same) and the 2.3l takes JWS3309 (or Toyota T-IV).
