    2017~2025 CX-5 Abnormal Oil Use

    Both times I checked, before and after the trip. I checked it cold . It was at the top mark before and it was @ halfway between at the end. I use 0w20 like recommended. I may be wrong about the level when I left but I don't remember.

    2017~2025 CX-5 Abnormal Oil Use

    I just completed a journey of @ 1800 miles on a 2019 GT. Before I left I checked my oil level and when I got back I checked it again. It was down approximately half a quart. Now I know all cars go through oil but this is the first I've had that lost this much. Actually it doesn't seem like a lot...

    Questions regarding my CX-5 and high-compression

    I have a 2019 Gt and love it. It's not perfect but no car is. However some questions have come to mind. The gas mileage in say the RAV4 and the Honda CRV are better. The CX5 has higher compression than every other small suv. I heard the reason for this is to help with gas mileage but it doesn't...

    2017~2025 You can't turn off the Radio?

    Has anyone wondered why Mazda made the radio unable to turn off. I have a 2019 GT and don't know if this is the same on any earlier versions. When I first got it I tried to figure out how to turn it off and discovered I could only turn the volume down or mute it but could not turn it off? Oh...

    Simplified. What percentage off the CX-5 sticker?

    NADA online will tell you everything you need to know to negotiate a deal. My credit union will let me look at the guide they have. Most people feel that dealerships mess you over. Some do but with all the info online getting a deal isn't a problem. Dealerships make most of their money on...

    Coming Home Lights no longer turning on

    My headlights on my 2019 no longer turn on when I pull in the driveway and turn the car off. I haven't been able to solve this with the settings on the infotainment system. Am I missing something? Anyone have any advice?

    Havoline oil w/ Moly?

    Changing between oil brands don't mean a thing. They all conform to certain specs. Heck there was a day long ago I used nothing but reclaimed oil in my cars.

    Havoline oil w/ Moly?

    Frick and Frack the tappet brothers (from PBS radio) opined that any oil will work (except diesel type oils) be they dino or synthetic! A long time ago I was a mech in an AMC dealer (tells you how old I am) and I agree to an extent. Engineering has advanced a lot since those days. The main thing...

    CX-5 Ceramic Coating Question

    Has anyone put their own ceramic coating or had a professional put one on their car? If you did it tell us how hard/easy it was to do and other things you might find interesting. Also of course according to when you did it how long it's lasted. If you had it done how much did it run, has it...

    Lifetime Tranny Fluid?

    Ok I know this has probably beaten to death like most everything has but I'm curious. Does anyone that has the "sealed tranny" with lifetime fluid have a high mileage car that hasn't changed the fluid and if you do have you had any problems? I know that @ 90% of all mechanichs don't believe in...

    2017~2025 Noisy CX-5 GT

    The majority of the noise comes from the tires. You'll notice the change depending on the road your driving. Lots of cars have the same problem. Mazda could possibly do a better job of insulating but my 2019 is quieter than my 2015.

    2013~2016 Battery life?

    Since you know what the voltage on the battery is I assume you have a meter. Hook it up to the battery and have someone turn it over while you read it. If it drops below 10 volts replace the battery.

    2017~2025 2019 CX-5 Transmission/Idling Issue When Coming To Stop (cross post from Reddit)

    I had a 2016 and now have a 2019 cx5 GT and have felt it also. I've heard it's the torque converter unlocking which I guess it could be. I know the engineers wanted a fast lockup so that may be it. Doesn't worry me!

    Trip Computer MPG

    you're kidding right! You get upset that the computer is off a couple of miles per gallon? Put a piece of electrical tape over the display and forget about it. They provide you with something like this and you get upset? What would you do if you didn't have power windows, air conditioning, or...
