@tx990.. this specific issue is not applicable to your ‘16

They can be made reliable. My father’s old ‘93 Isuzu Trooper (he purchased new) has power folding mirrors that still work to this day. I have them on my ‘12 GX 460 and never an issue with them there either.

FSM so far doesn't seem to cover that repair... only the left and right drive shaft seals

Since I have no noticeable oil consumption and drivetrain noise is fine with me… I’m sticking with Mazda 0W-20 Moly for this vehicle’s life. :-) @JustThisguy - I just did a full brake job (rotors, pads, hardware) and full brake fluid flush with a Motive bleeder...

I think this is the first I've seen of a halogen to AFS-HID retrofit on a 13-15 CX-5 Did you base this on an exist writeup somewhere? If so..can you point to it? I have stock AFS-HIDs in my '15 but still curious

Put the wheels back on this morning and took it out for a test drive. Perfect in all regards... braking, pedal feel, and stopping distance feels like new

I didn’t get a chance to take a picture of extracted fluid but it was a little darker than vial on the left. Easy one person job… sit back and wait for fluid bleed on each wheel. I try to keep the bleeder container at 10 psi. I put fluid in pressure container with mine.. I know some just use...

Started my full brake job (rotors, pads, hardware) and will follow with a full Motiv brake fluid flush Only had time to do the front rotors, pads, hardware this afternoon Also pulled the winter tires off and will put the summer tires back on when done with this project Vehicle is up on 4 jack...

That Fireman’s tool I kinked to early looks like it can punch through and cut laminate but can’t imagine this would be easy inside the car and add submerged to boot

Wonder if a hammer after use of this tool will help crack the laminated? https://www.deltakits.com/shop/windshield-repair-products/product/268-star-break-maker

Assuming the events that occurred prior to submerging don’t take out the battery. I’ve seen more wrecks with prior submersion damage than just a direct launch into the water. Doubtful any manufacturer but really high end are going to install secondary batteries to the power window motors.

This $190 tool will get you through laminated glass https://lifelinerescuetools.com/fire/

Possibly delay but not prevent eventual buildup from what I have observed others report. There is kind of a quasi catch can setup from factory but I don’t think there is anywhere you drain it. I’ll have to pull a schematic up. It may be different on the Gen 2 motors though. The engine setups...

How many seconds or minutes do you think you are blasting each cylinder intake with the media?

Appreciate you keeping this maintenance item on the radar Not a project for me this year… too much other auto maintenance this year but will keep it on the todo list. My ‘15 has around 83k miles Knock on wood.. no abnormal driving symptoms and 90% freeway use

@AL Cx5 : I’d be rotating the crank pulley via socket & bar

Can anyone else open up the links @theblooms posted in #5?
