    I emailed Mazda USA on synthetic oil for turbo engines

    I wouldn't say a lot. You're definitely in the top 30% according to averages.

    MAZDA CX5 park sensors and 360 camera

    That's too bad. I know on my gen Mazda it was possible to add as an Official Accessory to any Mazda. Not so anymore.

    On the fence...CX-5 20” wheels vs 19”

    Yes. And it was impressive, I will admit. I mean there was hardly any space between the wheel and the car. And I could put 1,000 pounds in the trunk and it wouldn't budge or scrape. And it did corner exceptionally well. But man, that drive. And yes, I realize not all lowered cars are that bad...

    On the fence...CX-5 20” wheels vs 19”

    Lol…it’s not the look I hate…it’s how they drive. Bought a lowered Saab once. Looked pretty good…and it cornered like a train on tracks…but man…Cleveland roads are not kind to cars with tight suspensions. I do want to feel the road…but I want my car to at least absorb some of the road.

    Current Mazda owner needs a luxury car as well

    Nice. They're fantastic cars. I'm more in love with mine then I was when I bought it. Did you get the Bowers Stereo? Join us @ SwedeSpeed.com if you're looking for a forum. 😉

    I don't mean using "Mazda oil". If they say dino is fine for your turbo, I believe that.

    I emailed Mazda USA on synthetic oil for turbo engines

    A lot of companies ask you to use synthetic. I sincerely doubt they say somewhere "Because the turbo runs cooler on synthetic". Happy to be proven wrong. Regardless as it relates to this thread: do what Mazda tells you to do. LOL

    I emailed Mazda USA on synthetic oil for turbo engines

    That's exactly right because a synthetic oil won't break down as fast as a straight dino oil does at higher temps. And since dino oil can easily last 5k, unless you're waiting much longer, there's no advantage to syn. Mazda knows what they're doing. 8)

    I emailed Mazda USA on synthetic oil for turbo engines

    That's not true at all. Turbo engines have been running on plain old regular oil since the dawn of the turbo in the 60s. The modern turbo prefers (and some do require) better gas, but there is no requirement for synthetic oil on a turbo that I have ever heard.

    On the fence...CX-5 20” wheels vs 19”

    I switch between 19's for summer and 17s for winter and other then the noiser snow tires, honestly, there's very little difference that I can tell.

    Wife wants Satellite Radio (2021 CX-5)

    Mazda has always only offered this on the higher trims. This isn't new. Ask anyone with a 2016 Touring or Sport. Only came on GT back then. OR the Touring IF you added the Tech package (I think).

    Retrofitting SiriusXM? 2023 CX-9

    Mazda has always only offered it on the upper trims. Which I don't get if you are SiriusXM and want to get in as many cars as you possibly can. If I had to have it, I would try this: A Guide To SiriusXM® Satellite Radio in Mazdas | VAIS Tech

    The 3rd one with the creepy fog light in the back is hot! Loving the black wheels on the other 2.

    Wife wants Satellite Radio (2021 CX-5)

    That certainly looks like a pretty good solution. If it was must have for me I might try it depending on how easy the install. Looks like there are even installers in my area. I say go for it! You have GOT to be joking. I haven't paid more the $6 a month in years. I call to cancel. They beg me...
