    Far enough from sidewall to be repaired/patched?

    I'm no expert, but it looks repairable to me.

    Trade-Up? 2021 CX-5 or 2023 CX-5 (or CX-50)?

    Good point! So far, the Subaru has been a great vehicle! It currently has 62k miles on it, so its definitely got a lot of life left in it. I think I'll just wait it out for the 2023 model.

    Trade-Up? 2021 CX-5 or 2023 CX-5 (or CX-50)?

    Hey guys, Need some thoughts and opinions here. I currently have a 2019 GTR (love it), and my wife has a 17' Subaru Legacy. I would like to upgrade her car, and she also really likes my CX-5. So, I am really debating if I should get her a 2021 Sig, or wait it out for the 2023 redesign...

    RWD Platform AWD Question

    Hi All, With the speculation of the 2023 CX-5 having a RWD platform and AWD optional, how will the AWD compare to what is currently offered in the CX-5? I guess my question is, what will the power distribution likely be for a vehicle using this setup? With the AWD model, would there likely be...

    2017~2025 Weird brake noise

    I'm guessing I probably need to have the caliper guide pins cleaned and lubed again as well. I will have Mazda take a look at my next oil change. Thanks, guys!

    2017~2025 Weird brake noise

    Hi all, I had the front rotors and brake pads replaced on my 19' GTR back in Nov. (warped rotors). Anyway, I've been noticing lately, that when I come to a stop, I am getting some brake noise. It's similar to when the anti-lock braking system kicks in. I live in the Midwest, so I am not sure...

    Battery Management warning

    I'm guessing you may need to reset the system? Did you look in the owners manual for verification?

    Battery Tests

    Hi all, So, I've got to ask, are the battery load tests that the dealerships perform accurate? My wife's 2019 Subaru Legacy was just at Subaru for an oil change 3 months ago. They stated that it passed the battery load test and was still good. Three weeks later, the battery went totally dead...

    4 Best Things About the 2021 Mazda CX-5 Signature

    I'm very happy with my 19' GTR, however, that new infotainment system is quite appealing. I will hold off a couple of years though, and see what new features Mazda comes out with.

    Annoyed - Dealership Service!

    I ordered some coolant and stopped by Mazda today. I watched the tech pour in OEM Mazda Coolant FL22. All is good now, and I’ll have a jug to top off in the future!

    Annoyed - Dealership Service!

    That’s really weird. I never noticed any coolant loss on my 17’ GT before I traded it in. I already spoke to the service manager, and they’re going to top it off for me on Monday. my main concern, however, is where did it all go? It was close to the full line a few months ago. I don’t have any...

    Annoyed - Dealership Service!

    So, I checked my coolant level (engine is completely cool). The level is just below the "L" line on the overflow tank. Is this where it should be? Or, should I top it off to the full mark? I found this video for reference, and she states that when cold the coolant level should be at the L...

    Annoyed - Dealership Service!

    Not sure, but would something like this work just as good as OEM Mazda coolant if I were to save the gas and just bug a gallon of the coolant...

    Annoyed - Dealership Service!

    Hey guys, If anyone on here uses the Mazda dealership for service(s), do you ever have a problem with them topping off your fluids? I just noticed on my 19' GTR that my coolant level in the overflow tank is super low (almost dry) and the engine is stone cold-cold. I checked the radiator and...

    2017~2025 Cleaner for dash?

    And so it ends

    Ouch! So sorry to see this. Hopefully, it is repairable. Did the airbags deploy?
