    Just bought a 21 CX-5 Sport with 19k from a Honda dealership. When I try to press the button to start it shows "Key not detected" and then "Key Fob Battery Low. Hold Key Close to Start Button" So I was able to start the car by keeping the key close to the start button and pressing into it...

    Looking at purchasing a 2022 CX-5 with 8,312 miles…One concern

    Actually, even I thought air filters don't make a difference. But even my wife noticed the vehicle was not performing the same. So, then switched back to the Mada air filter and she was able to notice the difference. I'll always stick to their filters now.

    Looking at purchasing a 2022 CX-5 with 8,312 miles…One concern

    I was looking in purchasing a 22 CX-5 sport 2.5 select package at a Mazda dealer in Miami. It's certified car with about 8,312 miles on it. But my one concern on it is that the only oil change that was done on it was on 1/26/2024 at the dealership. The car was purchased back in 4/21/2022. At...

    2016 CX-5 Interstate battery replaced with Walmart Everstart Evermax

    So, I had Walmart install the 640 CCA battery. There was the 525 CCA battery that was also compatible with the CX-5 but went with the higher CCA battery. I suppose for Florida I could have gone with the 525 one. With the 640 CCA it's a 3-year warranty and for 525 it's 2 years.

    2016 CX-5 Paint on hood not shiny

    I live in sunny south Florida where it gets very hot and it has probably affected the paint. At this point I'll probably just wait around another two years before I re-paint the vehicle.

    2016 CX-5 Paint on hood not shiny

    @GFrosty I never got a chance to try polishing method. However, I just noticed those hazy portions of the hood are showing white spotting. Looks like the paint is fading. Noticed this also on the roof of the car. What are my options now?
