    Shopping Used CX-5s, questions about cracked cylinder years

    Didn't realize it was that early, sales guy told me it was new for the 19's. He said it was a big selling point along with the turbo.

    Shopping Used CX-5s, questions about cracked cylinder years

    I have a 11 yo 2016 CX-5 with 45,000 miles on the ODO. It will definitely last another 10 years. In order to have 10 care free years you have to find one that was taken care of and has low mileage. They're out there but hard to find. Kinda like Bigfoot.

    Shopping Used CX-5s, questions about cracked cylinder years

    Above 2021's. 2019 - 2021 turbos could develop cracked cylinder head but they're covered under extended warranty for this problem. Usually presents itself as a coolant leak. The NA engines can also have this problem but it will present itself as a oil leak. As of now no extended warranty yet...

    2013~2016 CX-5 Oil Burn

    Mazda3 doesn't seem to want to start immediately?

    Harbor Freight sells decent products but I wouldn't go with their low end stuff especially when there's the risk of damage/fire. I've bought many things from them and they sell mid-range products, good for the DIY'er.

    Phone echo and text messages not playing

    Never was an option to respond, you need to pull over and send the text through your phone.

    Anyone get an SD card for the CX-70/90 from Amazon?

    I think the HUD will show the stop signs, speed limits when it can detect them. I think the SD card is needed when you pull out onto a road and there's no speed limit sign in view. The system will pull that from the SD card as well as any Nav info required.

    I wish Mazda would bring back the original RX-7

    Had an 86 RX-7, year they changed from the smaller version. Think the 86 won Motor Trend car of the year. Dealers would not bargain but I wanted one. So I paid MSRP. Didn't like the look from the back with the large window so I ordered the black louvers for the back. Completely changed the...
