Depending on the time of day, the blue light goes off anywhere between 1-3 min. My 2mi highway drive is actually 4mi due to the return trip but it's only the past 3 fillups where I haven't been getting my 21-23 combined mpg. The best this vehicle has ever gotten was 24mpg and that was straight...

Hey all. I purchased my 2014 CX-5 GT FWD in August of 2013. It has 35.5k miles on it. My last 3 fill ups have progressively gotten worse. 250mi, 225mi and today 220mi to the tank. I make a short 2mi highway commute every other day and drive a mile up to the gas station every morning. I don't go...

I've always been the type to purchase the extended warranty on anything I spend over $500 for. I've only had a nail in one tire in the 3 years I've had this 2014 model. Maybe I'll get lucky and not need it.

I called them back and have the Continental's ordered now. The salesman said the customers he's ordered them for have been pleased. Do you recommend the optional certificate from Discount?

Despite the $70 Visa Card, would you still recommend the Continental over the General, even owning the General yourself? I see the Continental has a higher UTGQ at 800 and has a better warranty at 6 years/90,000 miles. The Continental also says it's "EcoPlus" because it has low rolling resistance.

Called Optima. The battery was suppose to come with a height adapter which O'Reilly failed to give me. They're shipping one out. Problem solved. If an admin sees this you may delete the post. Thank you!

I just had my vehicle at the dealership last week for it's final free oil change. They told me my battery was only producing 220 CCA (factory new is 440). Decided to just go with the best and get the Optima. The Optima is a shorter battery, therefor the J hooks for the battery tie down are too...

I just ordered the Altimax's... 😢 It's ok. $70 is nothing. I thought the point of going with the Altimax was that it's a 51 psi tire as opposed to say, the Nitto which is a 44(?) psi tire? Why 38 psi and why would they inflate to 36 by default? Are the psi ratings just max tire pressure allowed?

I'll take your word for it and have Discount order them. I just hope the handling and performance are on par or better than the A23s. I hope they're quiet as well. Did you order the H rated? Tire Rack says they're available in V rated as well.

The Discount Tire website says the Cinturato P7 is a fuel efficient tire. What makes it fuel efficient? Ugh I hate shopping... for anything. Lol. Too many variables.

I'll be getting my tires at Discount Tire. They only offer 6 tires in 225/55 R19. The only ones on the above listed link are the Pirelli Cinturado P7, Nitto NT 421Q and Michelin Premier LTX. Which would you choose out of these 3 and why? I'm so pissed that I'm at 2/32 and my CX-5 only has 33k on...

What would I compromise dropping from a V speed rated tire down to an H speed?

Hey all. I own a 2014 CX-5 Grand Touring FWD (purchased August 2013). I live in Austin, TX. Year round heat for the most part. I have 33,000 miles on the vehicle and my Toyo A23s are already in the red and I'm told they need to be replaced. Dealer tried to sell me new ones at $359/pc with a...

I read somewhere the Ultimate Wash n Wax wasn't completely safe for newer paint so I went with the Gold Class shampoo/conditioner for now. Maybe when this runs out over the next year or so I can move to the Ultimate. By then I'll be able to afford more of the products BaronVonAwesome...

Appreciate the input!

Hi all. I purchased my 2014 CX-5 Grand Touring a couple of days ago. It's the first BRAND NEW car I've ever owned, and as such I want to keep it looking like new for as long as I can. I came across this thread http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?123832411-2013-CX-5-Detailed looking for...

I just purchased my 2014 CX-5 GT 2 days ago. First brand new car I've ever owned. I want to baby her as long as I can! Can anyone confirm that Simple Green is the safest cleaner for the aluminum-alloy wheels on the Grand Touring models? I believe I read in the owners manual that harsh cleaners...

Yeah, I went ahead and just started using my phone. Still irks me why I'm getting no sound out of a head unit that is suppose to play *.mp3 files.

I'm wondering if I just had a bad disc. I've burned manyyyyyyy mp3 CDs in the past and ran into no issues. I did burn on a CD-R at 16x and I made sure to finalize the disc. I am, however, using a different burning software than I have previously. I don't own (and actually despise) any and all...
