That shouldn't happen. We always ride with two fobs in the car and never have a problem.

Do a search on this site, I remember seeing a few posts couple years ago outlining how to disable it. Also check with Mazda, they were replacing these units free of charge but I'm not sure of the specifics. I'm sure others will chime in.

Buy new batteries.

Senior moment, checked my records and I had the coolant changed at 52,000 in the 2019. Hard keeping track of two CX-5's. Changed the 2016 at 43,000 miles.

Thanks. Unfortunately my 2019 is in the 58XXXX range so I have the 50/50. With 64,000 miles probably a good point to swap it out.

Do you know when Mazda switched the coolant? I had the newer coolant put into my 2016 last year but I'm trying to figure out if my 2019 has the old or new coolant.

Volvo's are very safe because they're always in the shop.

The Clean Air act is unaffected. This is what the EPA did in 2009 without congressional approval.

Actually they don't feel as nimble as the previous gen. I enjoy driving my 16 more than my 19. It just feels like it hugs the road better. May be the 17" tires compared to the 19" or that it's a little lighter. Each has it's plusses and minuses.

Yep, many times but how many times has the plaintiff actually prevailed? The EPA created the ruling and the EPA ended it and the govt. has tons of lawyers and money. This goes far beyond I-Stop and CD.

I don't think there will be a long delay since the regs were initiated by the EPA, not Congress and the EPA is removing them.

Too bad they didn't demand car manufacturers use dials for the most used systems instead of touch screens.

They probably can't reprogram CD but I'm sure they could stop the I-Stop.

0w20 on the 16 NA. All oil changes done at the dealer. Whatever they use. I think the Turbo takes 5w20 or maybe it's 5w30. Too lazy to go out and lift the hood to see what the oil cap says.

Believe the new name is harakiri
