    30,000 Mile Maintenance Quote

    My local indy garage that uses only certified mechanics just did my 30,000 mile service with my supplied oil filter, using full synthetic 5W30 oil for $69 including a copy of the inspections done with tire tread and brake pad measurements. Hard to argue with that. It took an hour and a half...

    2019 CX-5 Signature, Roof Rack

    Hi catch, I think you may have missed my follow-up question in post #8. If you ignored it, that's OK, too.

    2019 CX-5 Signature, Roof Rack

    Thanks for the additional info, Catch22. So just to clarify, if I measure from the garage floor to the top of the stock roof rails on my Mazda then add 10.5" for the platform height including the side platform rails, I should have my total clearance needed to get into the garage, correct? Good...

    What have you done to your CX-5 today?

    My GT-R got a synthetic oil change using my supplied 1WPY-14-302 filter, a tire rotation and all of the required 2 yr/30,000 mile warranty checks for $69 at a really good local shop. My car just broke 10,000 miles on our drive home from Zion last week.

    Anyone having luck eliminating the bogus dealer add-ons?

    Even 2 years ago, 5 dealers in AZ wouldn't budge.

    2019 CX-5 Signature, Roof Rack

    HI Catch22, I have two questions on this great looking setup if you have the answers. 1) I have a 2019 GT-R so our cars should be identical in dimensions. What is the total clearance height from the ground to the top of the platform? 2) It looks like there are a lot of connectors for the...

    2017~2025 Mastercraft Courser HSX Tour Ordered

    Thanks for the correction. It's been 40 years since I've been there and forgot that Cali was that high. CarpDiem was closer than I was in the reference to Bogota. I lived in Buenaventura for a year before transferring to Santa Marta for the second year while in the Peace Corps. Buenaventura and...

    Are you content with 19” Toyos or replacing them ASAP?

    Same here. I'll replace them when they hit the wear bars. I've driven on snow and in rain and had no issues. Like Murky says, I am not racing anyone.

    What have you done to your CX-5 today?

    Really? We all use that word a lot without the emotion that goes with true hate. It's a comment, no more.

    Post Pictures of Your CX-5 Mods, Upgrades and Accessories!

    Just installed my new hood struts that arrived Thursday from Russia. The kit was recommended by @Sushi-N-Sake on this thread. Looks like the kit is slightly different for my 2019 as it required no cutting of rubber. First part was super easy, requiring the install of two plates into which are...
