    Down to 3 tire options. Opinions Appreciated!

    I have 5K miles on them and have not noticed any difference either way on MPG. The ride is good, even better in the snow.

    No need, you'll smell the burning oil first then see it on the floor.

    Or could be a structure that helps with casting the part. Usually a cosmetic defect like that would be rejected unless it is on a side that is hidden from view. Assuming it is a cosmetic defect and other tests for the part been passed.

    2.5 NA Cracked Cylinder Head with Oil leaking...How common is this?

    I'm not familiar with the back of the engine, maybe you know what he is pointing to. Yes, I feel sorry for people that weren't covered. I looked up the price just for the cylinder head. it is $ 1.1K https://www.dropbox.com/s/7ltpk7bo9giz8ue/DCC07C43-E23A-483E-97CA-6D66F1C46E8A.mp4?dl=0

    2.5 NA Cracked Cylinder Head with Oil leaking...How common is this?

    It was somewhere in the back. It wasn't specific. I smell burning oil for about a week, but I could not find the source. I never had a car with engine issues.

    2.5 NA Cracked Cylinder Head with Oil leaking...How common is this?

    Regular 2.5, Touring. I finally got it back today. It took them 2 weeks to get it fixed. They did offer me a loaner. Yes, the guy at the service desk said repairs would have not been covered if the car was over 60K miles.

    My cracked head was also in the back of the engine. My 2019 cx-5 engine has 58K on it. I wonder if the repairs would still be covered if the issue happened after 60K?

    Wireless CarPlay Adapter...Anyone try CarPlay2Air?

    It works with the right firmware for the dongle. I have been using 2.0 version for over a year. But some people are having issues with the latest Mazda firmware. https://mazdas247.com/forum/t/wireless-adapter-for-carplay.123873233/#post-6717190

    Wireless Adapter for Carplay

    It has been 3 days and it worked without issue. All the apps I used worked. Just make sure to use firmware 2021.1.28 or newer on the dongle.
