    2017~2025 Noisy CX-5 GT

    The majority of the noise comes from the tires. You'll notice the change depending on the road your driving. Lots of cars have the same problem. Mazda could possibly do a better job of insulating but my 2019 is quieter than my 2015.

    2013~2016 Battery life?

    Since you know what the voltage on the battery is I assume you have a meter. Hook it up to the battery and have someone turn it over while you read it. If it drops below 10 volts replace the battery.

    2017~2025 2019 CX-5 Transmission/Idling Issue When Coming To Stop (cross post from Reddit)

    I had a 2016 and now have a 2019 cx5 GT and have felt it also. I've heard it's the torque converter unlocking which I guess it could be. I know the engineers wanted a fast lockup so that may be it. Doesn't worry me!

    Trip Computer MPG

    you're kidding right! You get upset that the computer is off a couple of miles per gallon? Put a piece of electrical tape over the display and forget about it. They provide you with something like this and you get upset? What would you do if you didn't have power windows, air conditioning, or...

    Has anyone here bought the diesel CX-5 yet?

    I read somewhere that the diesel doesn't get any better mileage than the gas version. Of course I can't attest to the validity of this claim but if it's true who would pay the extra money for a diesel version only to pay more for the fuel and not get better mileage. I feel Mazda didn't think...

    Engine Breaking, New Car

    Personally I don't see a problem and I do it also. I don't think engineers would have designed the transmission with that capability if it was bad for the tranny. However with that said some people would point out that replacing brake parts is a lot cheaper than having the tranny repaired!

    2020 CR-V Hybrid

    Hybrid's don't really impress me. In the real world the cost of running one doesn't include the battery replacement. Batteries no matter what kind lose their ability to load what some call a "full" charge over time and lose efficiency. The power rating of the combining engines is suspect also...

    New CX-5; 655 miles. Looking for tips on initial wax, care, etc.

    This is a highly subjective topic and being my first time here it reads like a Maguiars commercial. I just obtained a 2019 GT and it seems to have come from the dealer with some kind of protective coat but I don't know what. Probably just a good wax. Personally I like Turtle wax products and if...

    Turning it Off

    I just bought a 2019 GT and have now realized that there's no way to turn the radio off. Unless I'm missing something you can mute it or turn the volume down. Someone let me know if I'm wrong.

    New 2019 GT

    Got the wallet out and traded my 2015 touring for a 2019 GT. I liked the way the 15 drove. Very responsive. It had aftermarket leather and was comfortable. The ride was a tad stiff and in my old age it would have been nice had it rode a little softer. The new one seems a tad bigger and rides a...

    2017~2025 Acceleration while Braking

    I had a situation once where my oversized foot with clunky shoes got on both the brake and accelerator at the same time when I tried to brake. A little more space between them would be nice.

    2013~2016 Unknown in Engine Bay

    I was checking the oil level on my 2015 and got nosy and started looking around. On the passenger side behind the windshield washer bottle I spotted something with a rubber top somewhat buried in and was wondering what it was. Can anyone enlighten me on it's function etc.? They stuff so much...

    What features do you miss from the car you traded for the CX5?

    I miss the ability to remotely lower my windows to let the heat out. Important here in Florida. A larger gas tank would be nice, say @ 20 gal.?

    Ride Adjustment

    I have a 2015 CX5 touring. I bought it used and it had @ 17k miles. I'm really pleased with it. If I had any criticism it would be that the suspension a little too harsh. I wish it had a an option for adjustable rides. I noticed the new ones have a sport adjustment that re-programs the...

    Ride

    Don't know if this is the right place to post this but here goes. I have a 2015 CX-5 and love it. I got it because I'm as old as dirt now and my health has deteriorated accordingly. I got tired of pushing myself up and out of my Honda Accord coupe which was a kick butt car with a v-6. My CX-5 is...
