    Does size matter?

    Both our CX70 and CX5 oil filter dimensions are almost if not identical. I have both boxes clearly marked and double check every time I do an oil change. The CX70 is the Turbo S 3.3 L too. So a bigger engine.

    Headlight System Malfunction

    UPDATE: Took it to the dealer and they updated the software so hopefully the issue is fixed.

    Headlight System Malfunction

    Just got the CX-70 fuel level and MEHV battery software fixes done yesterday at the dealership. This morning when I drove the car I got a headlight system malfunction warning. Also, the switch to turn off the headlights will not stay in the off position. Anyone have this issue? I just...

    Transmission filter under microscope

    Our 2023 CX5 Turbo is only at 17K miles. I was just going to do a drain and fill at 30K but may consider dropping the pan and changing the filter too. Thanks!

    CX-90 Review (by AI?)

    Agree, lots of fluff and no substance.

    CX-5 Grille available that would cover lower opening?

    Yes, there is. I bought one off of eBay for my wife's 2023 CX5. It actually looks pretty good. I've been looking for one for my CX70 but so far no luck.

    What's with the lack of features in Mazda App?

    I just let the free subscription expire on a 2023 CX5. I just couldn't see the value of paying for it. Our 2025 CX70 has a couple extra features including tire pressure monitoring but still not worth it in my opinion.

    Good news is the car is still under warranty.

    Illuminated Door Sills

    On my CX-70 PP+ S there is a light under the rear doors that illuminates the door sills. Not sure about the other trim levels.

    Safety recall for CX-70 and CX-90

    The only thing fuel gauge I've noticed on my CX70 is even when I put as much gas as I can in it the fuel gauge still doesn't read as full. It's very close but not quite to the full mark. I've tried it with the car parked at different angles with the same result. My Mazda app shows 99% as the...

    What grade oil do you prefer?

    We live in Houston so 95% of the year it's hot. My next oil change I'm going to use 5W-30. I saw that same You Tube video and it convinced me to try it.

    I’m back on the wagon again - CX-70 Turbo S

    The outside looks like the twin to my Turbo S Plus!

    87 vs 91 Octane and 2.5T Torque/RPM specs

    My wife drives our 2023 turbo. I switched from 93 to 87 octane over a year ago. No difference in feel or mileage for her. I guess if you were in the upper rpm range you might feel a difference but for everyday driving I can't. Same with our 2025 CX70 Premium Plus S.

    How easy is DIY for the spark plugs?

    We're on our third CX5. Haven't done the ones on our 2023 turbo yet but the other two cars were very easy. Make sure the engine is cold when you do it and I'll second using a torque wrench is good advice.

    Sho's 7th Mazda!

    Ours is averaging 29.5 mpg so we're in the same ballpark. Like you I'm very surprised and impressed with the mileage. Keep up the posts!
