    2017~2025 Possibly buying CX-5...

    The CX-5 does fine on hills, and before I made the purchase I was worried about that as well. I drove from Los Angeles to Las Vegas and going up the mountain was not a problem. There are long stretches of uphill climbs and it didn't struggle at all. I do use sport mode to keep the rev higher...

    Cx-5 2017 ac

    Ac seems very cold in my 2017. It was 114 yesterday and I manually set it to 65 degrees and at speed 4, after about 10 minutes I had to turn it down, eventually to speed 2 by time I got home. I tend to set it manually more than I use auto climate feature. I did noticed the air isn't as strong...

    Show me your CX-5 wheels

    Not sure why, I went with what was recommended. I'm going to see what the shop says about psi when I go back this weekend. I'm at 32 psi right now and want to lower it just a tad for a bit smoother ride.

    Got the ace alloy black chrome wheels put on yesterday, 20X9 with 235/45-20 tires put on. Just curious for those with 20's, what psi do you set it to?

    What have you done to your CX-5 today?

    What have you done to your CX-5 today?

    Put on some 20's today :D I originally ordered 19's and the shop somehow screwed up the order and got 20's. I ended up keeping the 20's but had to get new tires so that was kind of unexpected expense right there. Overall kinda glad I went 20's instead of 19's lol

    2017~2025 Door locks making extra noise

    Mine made that noise at one point and then it stopped after a while. It comes and goes but haven't had that noise in a while. My 2014 Mazda 3 also made that noise when I lock/unlock sometimes. I've gotten accustomed to it so it doesn't bother me much now. Haven't had any issues with the locking...

    Black Chrome wheels

    No, I didn't mind the damage and was going to just leave it. I was tired of the black look so wanted to try something different and gave black chrome a try. It was also a one year anniversary gift for the car haha

    Black Chrome wheels

    I know, 20's look great but I've already ordered them in 19's since my tires are new I didn't want to get new tires again lol I think they're already here but I'm out of the country so will get them put on in a week or so.

    New 2017 CX-5 Revealed

    Haha reminds me when I first got the 2014 Mazda 3 hatchback. I got it end of 2013 and for almost a year I barely saw one on the road. It did feel special and I got a lot of stares and compliments. I remembered someone taking a pic of my car while it was getting tinted lol After some time I...

    2017~2025 How to stop rattling of the HUD (CX-5 2017)

    You sure it's from the HUD unit? I have a rattle around that area and turns out to be the a pillar. I wedged a thick piece of foam weatherstripping on the bottom of the a pillar against the windshield and that stopped my rattling.

    Dr ColorChip touch-up paint.

    Yup I got their touch up paint as well, much better than the Mazda ones. Mazda ones had a yellowish tone to it (I also have white)

    What have you done to your CX-5 today?

    More like 2 hp. I moved my seat forward a bit and I probably gained 10+ hp from that too :D

    Black Chrome wheels

    Ah nice to try out different wheels on the car lol too bad I couldn't find the black chrome ones. Forgot to post the pics I took of the wheels next to the car, I stopped by a wheel shop and they had one on display, they're 20's but if I do get them they'll be 19's so I can use the tires I got...

    What have you done to your CX-5 today?

    Got these pedals put on tonight, I had the same ones on my 2014 mazda 3 but I like these better as it doesn't have any letterings on them. The one I had on my mazda 3 says "mazdaspeed" on it, these are blank.

    Black Chrome wheels

    I'm a bit tired of the black wheels I got now and thinking of a change. What do you guys think about these wheels or black chrome wheels in general? Couldn't find any pics of it on a mazda, but you get the idea. Anyone have black chrome wheels here?
