    What's next for the CX-5?

    What I read ... (non-English site) 1. new and proprietary hybrid from Mazda. (as said) 2. ICE used will be Skyactiv-X for better efficiency 3. big body/structure change to accommodate the hybrid system. Not just front/back refreshing like what we saw for 2017. 4. interior will be more like...

    Auto Door Lock Glitch?

    Indeed, Snake. AutoLock is more useful when both your hands are busy. e.g. In a rainy day, one hand with umbrella and the other carrying some stuff....

    2024 CX-5 Trunk inconvenience

    My CX-5 is set to ParkGear-n-UnlockAll mode. So this is not a problem for me. I can shift gear to Park (engine on or not), and walk out to the back. (no need to bring fob with you) The key point is.... the open button on the hatch does not unlock the hatch. It has to be unlocked first. Imagine...

    2020 CX-5 Suspension sounds - Any ideas?

    Don't worry about the warranty since you already reported this issues to dealer. It is in their record. On to the issue. You can bring it to other Mazda dealers if possible. Sounds to me something is loose in the suspension.

    Auto Door Lock Glitch?

    To OP. I just tested mine. No problem. I closed the door (driver side) and stood by the door. My daughter opened the passenger side door and closed it while I was standing and waiting. The Auto-lock beeped to confirm when she closed hers. No issue with my '22. Two possibilities. 1. one of the...

    Mazda Second Best-Ever Month in U.S. Sales History

    CX90 : CX70 = 5 : 1 ratio. Mazda should have brought the CX-60 to NA instead of CX-70. I would be very interested to get one. An Inline-6 version. What surprises me is that CX-50 is selling well.

    Auto Door Lock Glitch?

    I think this is where your confusion came from. Mazda's FOB (adv keyless feature) has a range of roughly 3 feet only. Your Honda might have 10 feet range. Stay close when the last person close the door. It should work. Longer is not always better in this case. (e,g, if you keep your fob close...

    2019 CX-5 Need tips on taking over maintenance after 50K miles

    I keep a spreadsheet for every vehicle I own. All services/repairs that were done to it, what, when, where and miles on odometer. Buyers love that. Easy for me to check what needs to be done next.

    Wider tires on stock wheels? 2016 CX-5

    One size up might be fine. Yes, check tirerack.com. They have utilities you can use to explore your options. I upsized the tires on my '98 BMW 540iA. I even went staggered. The latter is a big mistake, looking back. Going staggered is costly.... going wider is a choice you can make. My advice...

    The Never-ending Question...What happens to the CX-5 Next Year (2025)?

    hoodlum was spot-on. 2025 CX-5 has come out w/ minimum changes. Big change will come for 2026. Biggest news is the Mazda-proprietary hybrid (not Toyota's as in CX-50).

    Hitch Installation questions (2025 CX-90)

    Maybe they work for Mazda (no idea). What I meant was the accessories are not installed in the factories the vehicles are produced. Imagine this. A guy who installs roof racks over and over again. He can do this 10X more efficiently than any of us.

    2017 CX-5 vs 2024?

    I have a '17 and a '22 (turbo). Honestly, I cannot tell a difference in tranquility while they are on the same commute routes. Maybe there had been improvements over the recent models, but I cannot tell. My '17 CX5 is significantly quieter than my '16 Mazda6. Anyone in my family can tell that...
