That's because (in spite of what post #3 says) there is a good chance the gasket is blow in a way that allows oil into the coolant, but not coolant into the oil.

There's another old saying "s*** Happens!" And besides, you (or someone) have to pull the head off anyway in order to change the head gasket...because that's what's wrong! (See post #4 above^^^):giggle:

BTW: the "auto on" know is to activate the climate control system. To turn it off, hit the "off" button on the HVAC panel.

There's an old saying, "If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a blown head gasket."!!!

You're sure it's not blue (as in color blind 🫤)? It will be blue when you first start it until the engine warms up a bit.

Wow; you must live in a really nasty climate!

Are the silver lower bumper/skid plates an option, or is that standard on that model in your country?

Mordazas translates to "Jaws". Caliper translates to "calibrar".

It's a brake caliper and the lower piston boot is torn. Why couldn't the shop answer that for you?

"Same colour as the previous car. This red is IMO the most beautiful red of any car on the market." Your Gen 1 CX-5 was Soul Red Metallic; the new one is Soul Red Crystal Metallic. Big difference if you put them side by side! The later color was evolved from the former to be much more brilliant...

I put that same tire on my '13 Touring FWD years ago and had the same initial reaction. I ran the recommended pressure @34-35 and learned that the Altimax is a tire that takes some scrubbing (breaking) in. After a few hundred miles it was a totally different tire and quite a good one!

That trim piece will actually come off on its own under the right conditions. I had a 2013 and was going north on Hwy 5 in Calif years ago and the left rear tore loose without any prior notice and was bouncing along the road being held on by a single clip. Fortunately it didn't do any harm...

I don't know about the 2019, but the seats in my wife's 2023 are pathetic. Not enough bolstering, flat as a board and the bottom is too short to offer decent thigh support. Makes me appreciate the seats in my 2018 3, which don't suffer from any of those shortcomings!

My thought exactly. I've always wondered why Mazda has such a hard time finding really nice looking wheels. Some manufacturers (like Honda) seem to have that really dialed in.

And I'll bet yours is garage-kept and the OP's sits outside 24/7. Makes all the difference with paint and headlight lens longevity.

The rule of thumb for as long as I can remember has been 'any 4 cyl 2.5 ltrs or larger requires a balance shaft'. It's kind of a basic law of physics.

You noticed that, eh? :rolleyes:

Did you Google the numbers on the side of the housing?
