Got the same exact thing from my dealer. Svc Manager told me it was a 'sealed lifetime system'. I told him it had a transmission fluid dipstick and he said he's have to talk to his service expert about it and would get back to me. Never did get back to me. They don't want to mess with it...

Yeah, of course, the warranty just expired on the vehicle. The timing of that was kind of impressive. When i get a chance, I'll see what the dealer says.

I just had this issue occur with my driver side mirror on my '19 CX-5 GTR. Mirror would only fold about 1/3 of the way when locked. I gently nudged it while locking so it would close all the way, then hit it with some WD-40. So far, it's returned to full function. Not sure if or how long...

I found these to be a perfect fit and excellent quality and great price. They absolutely do fit the Mazda 2.5T perfectly: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B2D48MY/

Knocks on wood: I'm on 26K miles. Zero issues thus far. BTW, it's pretty well established that turbo charged engines simply do not last as long as NA engines due to the higher pressures increasing wear on the engine. That's not a Mazda thing, that's a turbo thing. I have no idea how to...

My take is that there is an issue with the car. Mine prints the exact EPA mileage advertised. Mostly around town driving, but some pure highway driving (78 mph cruise) about once per month. 23 city, 28 highway all day long.

I wonder if anybody here has had that cracked rear differential issue. They appear to be recommending that you start the engine with the emergency parking brake off, which is contrary to what the owner manual states.

I just discovered a minor issue with 74.00.230. My phone contacts and call history no longer upload over bluetooth. Everything works fine with AA, so it's not a big deal, but I often just used the bluetooth link to my phone when I wasn't doing longer trips. The contacts and call history...

I just performed the update to 74.00.230. About 20 minutes (excluding 10 minutes prep) and it was done. Seems to work very well and haven't noticed any issues yet at a result of the upgrade. I did it primarily because of the Sirius XM issue where it can't find any stations sometimes...

Yeah, I read that in the manual shortly after buying the car. Since the oil (which I believe is the only coolant fluid available to this turbo) is still pumped mechanically by the engine, it's not an option to keep fluid circulating after the engine is shut off. It would require a more...

BTW, I found you're review is spot on with my experience thus far. Same model and year.

Seems like with the number of miles you put on your car in the time you've owned it, an extended warranty would be one case where it makes sense.

Mine lasted about 13 months before I got the key battery low warning.

I think there has to be something more that will come out about this tragedy. This doesn't make a lot of sense, based on what has been reported thus far.

I agree with the general thrust of the approach taken by hal2. First, research and pick your price. Pay no attention to things like doc fees, etc. TTL is a fixed cost nobody has any control over, so ignore that as well. You only care about the bottom line price so focus exclusively on that...

Good info. So it's not necessarily normal to see this issue...if it's excessive, could be a clear mechanical issue like a leaking fuel injector. I guess having the report makes it easier to communicate that to the service department if it is an issue.

It's pretty smart that they provide the test kits free of charge and you only pay for the actual oil analysis. Makes things easy and their prices seem very reasonable.

Yeah, I've been reading through this forum and that seems to be the thing to do. I've ordered a test kit from Blackstone to get it checked. It's about the only way to know whether the amount of dilution is something to be concerned about or not. Thanks for replying.

I've got a 2019 GTR with Turbo. I bought the car in November of last year and noticed that I definitely have some oil dilution going on. I only have about 6500 miles on it and got the first oil change around 4800 miles. I noticed the issue soon after I bought the car, when I checked the oil...

Ah, yeah, I understand now...I didn't read that post correctly. Mis-read it as heated windshield wipers.
