My Altimax RT43s have done 12K miles. They were not very confidence inspiring early on but once set they are a good performing tire. But I do agree that 65K miles (warranty) on these means that the last 20-30K miles of that lifespan would be with less grip and wont be able to push it hard in...

OP - did you get the amount you paid to the dealer + taxes or did you get MSRP + taxes back? Lax regulations regarding consumer protection is the reason I am out from buying a new car again - irrespective of affordability. In your case the 2018 was not a new model, its been out since 2014 with...

neal, your car is covered under 3 year 36K Warranty. Now after you washed it and this came up - either Mazda should have specified never to wash the car in their manual or the engine bay in the user manual. You need to call Mazda corporate. This also is a safety issue - Mazda should look at it...

^^^^^^ Somebody needs to try this out. A lot of insurance companies have stopped buying brand new parts to replace stuff on cars in accident. So tantrum can see if it makes more sense to part it out to them. If they have a GT with 30k miles in an accident they would happily take one of these...

I am thinking of getting Bosch Clear Advantage or Evolution CA will be 30 bucks for all 3. Evolution will be 35 for all 3 - 2 Evolution with rear CA. I think I will go with this. I loved Costco for the good quality wipers, may have to ask some friends if there are Michelins for $16-17 a pair...

I am on the checkout page at Medcenter mazda for 3 wiper inserts and 3 filters for my Gen1. I am confused as the total is 37 bucks and shipping is 17 bucks on top of that. I thought the more I bought the cheaper shipping should get. Oh well - anyone has like 50% off promo code or something? My...

CX5 Gen 3 does not excite me at all, the features and all are fine and not the most important aspect in buying a Mazda. If they milk the same 2.5 NA with CD and just dress it better that would be awful but I don't see US consumers paying extra for Sky X. Right now the Honda hybrids really looks...

$200 bucks / $120 bucks ouch. My 2nd car's key - a physical one was broken at the casing. It was a Toyota so I got the immobilizer out and bought a pair at $6 on eBay. My wife got it cut from her yota dealer for free. $6 for a spare and a spare blank in case I need it in the future. Price of...

The problem is that a 17 seat will run you thousands, better to go to a junkyard with your measurements and measure a 17 Sport manual seat. If it matches pull it and sell your 16 Sport seat. Chances are it will not match. The Gen 2 seems to have a wider center console.

Mazda warranty claims really depend on dealer and how good they are. We have members who had like 5-6 warranty stuff done before the 3 year mark thanks to a good dealer. There are others who cant get a simple thing done. Here was my conversation with Mazda corporate - Go to dealer A and go to...

I get mine for $36, it has an extra qt of oil just in case I need it for cooking. I have switched permanently to Mobil 1 or any other name brand synthetic. Its pretty good and availability means there is no anxiety hunting for it or need to stock. Many dealers here don't even know what Moly is...

Most likely your CX5 is out of warranty. So this is not something the dealer will entertain. You can kick this up to Mazda Corporate and see. If your dealer is good he might work with you.

I once drove from Dallas to Waco / Austin in my 16 CX5 without headlights, it has two positions, the first one just makes the cabin lights dimmer, turns on tail lights / dash lights / License lights and DRLs but does not turn on headlights. The 2nd position does. Btw the dash light comes on at...

Touring has no heated mirrors. So option is to Clean and apply Rainx / Wax. CX5 is not the best when apocalyptic weather strikes. 2.5 is very rough till it warms up, I can totally believe motor mount issues in sub 0 temperatures. HVAC could have been stronger. Comparing to the 2.5 Camry - both...

I guess they work - "Fog lights only work on LOW BEAM with headlights. " I wasn't aware of this bit. So it works. Now only if I could get heated side mirrors

Jjoe123 - you can also buy OEM Wiper inserts for about $6-$7 + shipping. Infact its time I did that for front two and rear wipers.

Thanks yrwei52 and mazdadude. I will check this out at my lunch time stroll here in a while.

What did you pay for it? I pay $23 for 5 Qts Mobil 1 and + 9 bucks per filter (2nd best Quality).

16.5 CX-5, This morning, It was very foggy here in DFW, My 30 minute drive the passenger side mirror was still wet. But what puzzled me was - My Fog lights died, when I rotate the stock I see no lights on the Dash and I don't see the fogs lighting up. 3 years is really a small time frame for...

I used to go to my Mazda dealer and switched from Mazda moly to whatever the dealer had. I am pretty sure it was the cheapest brand available. I recently bought Mobil 1 Full Syn and went to nearby Toyota dealer. MPG back to 29.4 from 26 ish and the car just feels like good old self. All I am...
