    CX-5 tire busted

    My opinion is you'd damage the rim first before hitting the TPMS but it depends on how the rubber moved while driving flat. Best to get it into a reputable tire shop to have it inspected as no one will be able to tell without physically seeing it.

    2017~2025 Official Mazda Accessories Installation By A Mazda Technician

    Skycruise Mazda CX-5 with Mazdaspeed Accessories and different Wheels? Interesting video showcasing the installation of Mazda Accessory parts on a 2017. Not sure what market but was interesting to see the parts were labeled Mazdaspeed. Could that be an indication of a Speed version coming...

    New 2018 CX-5 Vibration at Highway Speeds

    Best way to rule out the wheels/tires is to swap them out with another set. OP, do you have a set of winters you can temporarily swap on or see if the dealership have a pair of new take offs they can put on to test. Tires could have a loose belt or there could be an out of round situation. A...

    Mazda CX-5 2018 - Key Fob covers

    Not really. When you have other keys like house or office in the pockets, very easy for them to press against the buttons.

    Mazda CX-5 2018 - Key Fob covers

    I started to use the key fob case to attach to my belt loop. When the keys were in my pocket and I bent down, it would some times trigger the hatch button. Not really good to come back and find the tailgate up or worst, the tailgate trying to go up against a closed garage door.

    Mazda 5 wheels on a CX5?

    Wheels will fit fine with no issues at all. You will need the proper size tire for this to work.

    2017~2025 New to forum, have a month-old CX-5

    Factory Sub is not stored under the rear seats but in the spare tire in the trunk. Those metal brackets you refer to look like access plates to gain access to the fuel tank. That smell thing seems odd, Have you left the windows down to try and air the car out? New cars have a period where all...

    Tire caps (& Nitrogen)

    Nothing wrong with the two posts about the valve stem caps. Just be careful using them in any climate that uses salt on the roads. Anything other than plastic will tend to seize with salt and the caps to the stems.

    Favorite tire dressing for those who like dressing.

    I have used Pinnacle Black Onyx Gel which lasts 3 - 4 weeks. You can vary the shine by applying additional coats. Have not had any real product sling unless I went really crazy applying the product. This too smells grape fruity like Meguiars.

    Valve stems

    Take a look at Gorilla Automotive items at Amazon. Better than the cheap Chinese valve stems you're getting at that shop.

    2014 CX-5 Clicked from both rear wheels

    Could it be as simple as a stone or nail stuck somewhere in the tread of both tires making the clicking noise? Doesn't make the noise on the lift as the tires not making contact with the ground? Are the ticking noises always the same duration while driving or does it increase in duration with...

    2017 CX-5 TPM sensors/ winter wheel/tire pkg

    On my 2017 GT used a set of 17" 2012 Mazda 3 GT wheels with new Mazda OEM sensors. Had to be the easiest switch over with TPMS being recognized following the steps in the owner manual. No lights whatsoever and it was as simple to change wheels, turn ignition on, off wait 15 minutes and drive.

    OEM 19" weight??

    Thanks for the links. I went to the RWC website at this link and noticed that they claim a custom fit as each wheel is created for each vehicle. The link mentions: OE Cap Fitment Wheels compatible with original wheel cap of vehicle. Have you tried the factory Mazda logo OEM Caps with these...
