    Thanks...I did check into it before the purchased and was surprised to read Mazda suggested 87, so wanted to see what you guys with the Turbo do!

    2.5L NA Cracked Cylinder Head with Oil Leaking

    My understanding is it can effect any NA 2.5L engine with cylinder deactivation. The 2.5 Turbo also had an issue with cracking cylinder heads but instead of leaking oil it leaked coolant. But unlike the NA 2.5, the turbo's cylinder head was redesigned to prevent future cracks. (No indication...

    Just Purchased a 2024 CX-5 Carbon Turbo! Questions!

    So today we traded on our 2018 CX5 NA 2.5 with 41K miles in for a CX5 Turbo. Much seems the same but some is different. Few questions.... How well does the shiny trim along the wheels and bottom hold up? I see it does not have USB A ports for thumb drives (our music is on them) What kind of...

    [2018 CX-5] What’s this white plastic in my fuel tank? Prevents refueling at most gas stations

    Just looked at our 2018...no plastic down the filler hole. But the back of the gas cap is made of white plastic. Is the backside of your gas cap intact?

    2020 CX-5 Radar issues

    If you brought the car in during the warrantee period for this reason and they were never able to fix it and now you brought it back after the warrantee they should cover the cost of the repair. I think that's an "unwritten law". I would call Mazda Corp and ask them to cover it.

Turbos run hot and the engine oil is used to lubricate them. That extreme heat can breakdown the oil and result in sludge. So why not use the...

    Low Tire Pressure Light On But Pressures Normal! Why? 2018 CX-5

    Interesting. We just had new tires put on by Costco 6 months ago and never thought about asking them to replace the tire sensors since I've never had one fail.

    Low Tire Pressure Light On But Pressures Normal! Why? 2018 CX-5

    Suspect you are right. Have not read of people on here having to replace their sensors so hopefully it was a one and done event, for both of us!

    Low Tire Pressure Light On But Pressures Normal! Why? 2018 CX-5

    Looking at that video I doubt anyone is replacing the battery! Has anyone here had their battery fail in the sensor in their CX5?
