    Brand new CX-5 Turbo Vibration at 55-67mph

    Yes, the Hunter Road Force Balancing machines have been the way to figure things out for me at a local shop that used to service some BMW club drivers before they hit the racetrack.

    Brand new CX-5 Turbo Vibration at 55-67mph

    @Ironcity, We have not had that experience on our 21 CX-5 Signature Usually, when I experience speed related vibration like this, if you are lucky, it can be fixed by remounting and rebalancing the tire by moving the high spot on the tire away from the high spot on the wheel (because if you...

    Average MPG less than 20mpg, am I alone?

    We have similar poor mileage, but only drive many short trips, to grocery stores or whatever usually under 5 miles one way. Pandemic has severely restricted mileage accumulation because we hardly ever go anywhere now. But similar to you on a longish 100+ mile trip, the mpgs were acceptable.

    Can Toyo A36s really wear this fast!?

    I know this is about CX-5 tires, but I have to say that I leased a Mazda6 Touring equipped with the Dunlop SP Sport 5000 tires. The leasing company charged me $400 for excess tire wear. The car had less than 19000 miles on it. These OEM tires are never that great in my experience over the...

    Usefulness of 360 camera

    Yes we love the 360 view. It is also good enough to assist in parallel parking so that you do not get curb rash on your wheels.

    2021 Signature Infotainment Black Out

    So the random blackout happened again. No screen no radio no nothing, including Nav system or CarPlay. She pulled off the road, shut the car down, restarted and same behavior, nothing. She drove home and shut off the car and restarted and it worked again. The difference is that this time, as...

    CX-5 vs CX-50 suspension

    I think the body colored trim is only available on the Signature. Other trims still have the black plastic based on what I see from available ads

    2021 Signature Infotainment Black Out

    Many have said this infotainment blackout behavior is attributable to the Nav card contacts. We just went to the dealer for our first service oil change and tire rotation. The dealer said first step is an infotainment update which they did. If the behavior continues, they will perform...

    We have the 2021 Signature with the 10.25 inch display it is my wife’s car and she was quite disappointed that the infotainment system broke. Screen was black. CarPlay Siri voice commands worked through steering wheel. Volume control knob worked with FM radio but with no screen she could...

    Suggestions for accessing side marker bulb on Turbo CX-5?

    That is actually what we had to do with 8 Gen Honda Civics 2005-2010, pop the clips, pull back the wheel well liners as described above. Replaced the 9006 with HIR2 bulbs. Pain in the A** because HIR2s burned out more quickly than 9006. These days, we don't have to worry about it with LED and...

    CX-5 Air conditioning performance in hot weather

    Our 21 Sig AC works fine in Virginia where it can be hot and humid, but not nearly as bad as further south. This is just an impression, but in the early to mid 90's they changed refrigerants due to CFCs causing ozone depletion. We did notice one of our new cars with the newer refrigerant did...

    2021 10-speaker Bose CX-5 Frequency Response Curves

    This is way too complex for me to understand, but I do appreciate the conversation. I am surprised the sub seems to make no difference and that there is a huge "hole" in the 100-200 Hz range

    Largest tire size for the CX-5?

    What are you wheel specs for those tires? Just out of curiosity, if I run a calculator, 275/45-19 seems to be a better one to one replacement for the 225/55-19. Why did you choose the smaller diameter 40 series aspect ratio? To avoid potential rubbing with the wider tread section? Thanks.
