Went and did some archery in the woods yesterday (sadly my longbow snapped ). It occurred to me that I need to get my snow tires taken off.
Or admit it, we all are getting older ⋯⋯ When I was screwing in the bottom knuckle bolt(nut is captive) it wasn't raised the suspension properly(did not pay attention) and the bolt went in a bit crooked. It messed up the nut's thread.
Luckily, I'm a machinist and I will take care of it tomorrow.
Yes. But I’d double check the alignment from the other end, and try not to use wrench and never use too much force for initial turns. But again, it’s easy to be said than done. And I found I’m making more mistakes at older age than young, mainly because I’m trying to take short cut more to save my energy and time, which in turn would be prone to make mistakes!You would assume that, if at one end the holes align, at the other end would to, no?
Have you noticed the difference yet, six months later? (asking after the windshield tint).The ppf was Llumar Platinum. Llumar IRX 30 on the front windows. Hopefully I’ll notice some benefit in the Florida sun...
I got my delivery of those special Canadian liners last week. The only negative I can find is that they are slippery compared to my 13’s US rubber mats. I still prefer the dead pedal protection that other drivers found so beneficial.Got some things in last week in anticipation of picking up my new Reserve this weekend.
First day home she received OEM cargo mat and cargo cover from MedCenter Mazda and Canadian OEM Premium floor liners from Scarboro Mazda.
Got a little car wash earlier today since the weather is so nice. We'll see how long it stays clean, with living out in the country.
Got this nice little ding the 2nd week I had the car. Anyone have any idea of how to repair it? If possible. Being on the panel bend line real sucks....View attachment 224789View attachment 224790View attachment 224791

Hi, Recently I noticed that there are 4 small dents (dimples as defined by beepi.com) on my CX-5's bonnet. These are 4 in the center of the car and near to each other, as if in a pattern. No chipped paint but in the area, near these dents, usual dust was off as if someone touched/sit on it...www.mazdas247.comGot a dent on my car, looking for PDR
Need to get rid of dent on the driver side door, driver side fender and hood. Can anyone refer me to reputable and skilled PDR?(help)www.mazdas247.com
Try to find a local PDR shop with an excellent rep. A fellow user on this forum had a similar ding. I believe he took it to a PDR shop and they were able to repair it so that it was almost invisible (but not perfect).
Yeah - if I ever get a hitch, that's what I'd do too.Blu got a Class III hitch and wiring harness. Before any of you comment, I know the hitch is more than the CX-5 can tow. I mainly got the Class III for the accessories I can hook into it.

That's part of the reason I love these mats. Cleaning them takes one minute each and they dry quickly. I must say that I never have had my gas pedal foot slip while driving. Love that dead pedal coverage as well.
Got a Curt trailer hitch installed on my car yesterday. I'm just putting a bike rack on it so I didn't get a wiring harness. Looks good - hopefully get the bike rack in time to try it out this weekend.
