Makes sense! Cx5 is parked in the driveway and keys are hanging just inside front door, maybe 15-20 ft from the car.

Have had our 19 awd touring for 5 months and 17k miles (bought new), and already got a low key fob battery warning. Using the second fob for now but this cant be normal, can it?

Chevron supreme...but will only increase longevity if you are experiencing detonation on other fuels. On my friends tuned wrx that requires 91 octane, there was less measured knock on his tuner using chevron 91 than other 91 octane fuels (in California). This is the reason I run only Chevron 91...

Only downside to running Mazda moly 0w20 is the cost. But honestly any API certified 0w20 synthetic should do just fine with factory recommended intervals based on use, especially if it has the dexos 1 gen 2 certification. So far in 4.5 months have 16k miles on our 19 touring and heres what Ive...

Mo money

Money...nice to find good oem upgrade info like this

If it makes you feel any better, 12k miles on our 19 touring awd in 3.5 months and not a single issue thus far (had recall done). Never experienced anything remotely resembling unintended acceleration. Some people like to put down others cars to make themselves feel better about what they spent...

Is it possible to add driver seat/mirror memory to a 19 touring awd? Obviously would be cost prohibitive if all new wiring, etc were needed, but hoping that maybe a new driver seat with memory controls and a software flash would do the trick. Anybody know?

You can look up pretty much any first oil change uoa on any engine and see the wear metals in the sample. These wont necessarily do any harm, but I see no reason to leave them in for several thousand miles. To each their own...

If awd be sure to change rear differential oil asap

Changed at 2k with Mazda moly 0w20, then again at 5k with Idemitsu Zepro 0w20 high moly (supposed to be same as Mazda oil). Only like to change early to get break-in wear metals out.

What Ive always done... 1500-2k first oil change 5k second oil change Then carry on oil changes at whatever interval you decide to use

Nice! How long u had the car? What year? Any issues? Our 19 touring will likely hit 36k before a year is up. Currently at 12k in just over 3 months

Engine braking is the BEST way to properly break in an engine. That and varying rpm. I would use engine breaking as must as possible over the first 500-1000 miles, but switch gears from time to time to vary rpm as well. Have used this approach on every new vehicle weve had, the oldest of which...

I still think you guys are freaking out too much about the CD thing. Until we see issues on cars after recall is done, I wouldnt worry too much about it. I would much rather have cylinder deactivation than auto stop/start...

Agreed...the leather almost has the softness of nappa and Im a big fan. My lady wanted to get a wheel cover to preserve the leather but it was vetoed bc I like the feel. Told her if it wears out someday well but a new one Prefer the steering wheel of our 19 cx5 touring to the wheel in my 16...

🤦🏽

If one were to buy a cx5 in Canada and bring it to the states, would they get the unlimited mile 3yr/5yr warranties? At 35k+ miles per year that wouldve been a sweet deal for us.

There was someone on the wheel & tire picture thread that was running a 9.5 wide rear wheel (45mm offset) with 275 mm tires and no fitment issues. Guess the extra 1/2 of wheel width and even more so the +7.5mm offset are what made this a no-go. Oh well...have a pretty good idea what direction...

Always liked those andros wheels and briefly looked for some replicas in 5x114 with no success. Not sure Id ever use wobble bolts though...seem a bit sketchy
