    Tell me something I didn't know about my CX-30

    Here's another... CX-30 MEMORY SEAT SYNCHRONICITY A function which I see as the KODO philosophy is the synchronization of the driver seat memory with the key fob. When you open the door, the seat, side mirror (and HUD) starts to move to the position preset on the key. To do this, with the...

    A new "high" for our dealership. They MUST be joking!

    I got the same quote from my dealer. My local guy can do it for under 300. But I think Imma take a stab at it. Does anyone know the torque specs for the plugs?

    I'm not sure these are serviceable bearings. It may be a hub assembly type setup.

    2017 CX-5 GT - Plugs and Transmission Fluid

    My guy said that sometimes before bearings start to get play in them, they will make noise and it will sound odd and not a typical bearing sound. His opinion is that it's a good bearing, whereas a bad bearing will just go bad and get play in them and make the typical womp womp womp sound right away.

    2017 CX-5 GT - Plugs and Transmission Fluid

    I believe SOP is to check the vehicle while it's up on the hoist as well, but he said when he drove it, he could tell it was just a bearing and it was coming from the rear. Good mechanics can do that type of thing. I've literally seen a mechanic diagnose an Eagle Talon as it was idling in his...

    2017 CX-5 GT - Plugs and Transmission Fluid

    Ok, so I simply told the shop I had a noise from the rear and it was a whining noise. I didn't want to lead him. They road tested the vehicle checked out the truck. The mechanic said that it was clearly the rear wheel bearing making the noise. There was no play in the bearing yet which is why...

    Mazda Transmission Service in the 613 area?

    Anyone from the 613 that can recommend a garage that can drop the pan, change the filter and put new fluid in. The shop I go to doesn't have the fittings to fill the trans. I think it was the polite way of saying that maybe the hassle for them was more than they wanted to deal with. Please help.

    2017 CX-5 GT - Plugs and Transmission Fluid

    What does this repair go for? Approx? Sucks because this noise literally just appeared out of no where. I'll just ask for one of these 2 part numbers. Again, I'll just ask for these two part numbers. The shop I go to is pretty aware of needing specific fluids. I will mention to them as well...

    2017 CX-5 GT - Plugs and Transmission Fluid

    Ok, so I've got a bit of a whine from the rear end. I think it might be a wheel bearing so the vehicle is headed in next Thursday to have that looked at. I have 172k kms on the odometer. I asked the garage to provide me a quote for replacing the spark plugs. My question is, does anyone have a...

    Unsettling Experience with Stealership: Transmission and spark plug service

    So I just called to have an oil change done at the stealership (They've been pretty good to me). I inquired about changing the transmission fluid and this service writer seemed pretty adamant to NOT changing it. He also said that it doesn't have a filter but "just a strainer". Also unsettling...

    Average MPG less than 20mpg, am I alone?

    That's my whole point. It's a stupid argument. But to lose your mind about people using 91 octane is such a silly thing. If people like it, then let them use it, but to insinuate that people are stupid for using it is just divisive.

    Average MPG less than 20mpg, am I alone?

    Am I correct? Let me play your game. Have you Dyno'd a CX-5 with and without 91 octane? Until then you have no verifiable data. Wait, you're going to point to the 1 graph from Mazda and screech "SEE, SEE, SEE, MAZDA SAYS NO HP BENEFIT!". The point is that no one on this board has any real data...
