What year do you have as the 2013 car I had wasn't as sophisticated as my 2015 or my 2009 xtrail, and the 2017 is even better due to more sensors. I've read that a CRV also sets of in AWD.

AWD CX-5 sets off in AWD I read, but will always have 2% drive to the rears to reduce transition time moving to AWD.

And the assumption that the gearing would be the same, and mapping.

Enough to make a 2 sec difference in the 0-60mph time? I read or watched two sources that put the o-60 time between 8 and 9 seconds.

Not according to this test. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWOAvnpgDkQ Check out the figures at around 2.58 near the end. There have the 1/4 mile at 16.16 sec not 15.5, and 0-62 mph at 8.34

"looks like the previous series (KE). " That isn't a fact though is it, as the 2017 onwards has barely put miles up on the engines, I think you are being hopeful rather than baseing any of your comments on facts.

The utube video of the 2.5T Mazda 6 more or less says don't expect a sports car performance, the power delivery is tuned for effortless performance, Mazda may have made the gearing higher.

That's how I read it.

If only low numbers are being sold that would make the issue worst.

No need to overreact, I'm more than happy to read of possible issues that might come my way.

Head gasket blowing certainly isn't common in the UK, I might have read of ONE post only with that issue.

Is this the 190ps version?

That's a good idea.

Take a break after a couple of hours, it does make a difference.

I never had that problem, but I would wait at lights in gear with the clutch depressed to prevent istop working.

Not sure how they get any claimed "improved fuel economy" with more weight and power added. Having read the link (Thanks for that) it appears it hasn't improved "During our testing we averaged around 6.5L/100km in both the 129kW and 140kW tune, and this included performance testing and decent...

Note that this year, all vehicles have gone up by approximately 7kg (15 lbs). So last years GT diesel that was tested weighed 1744kg (3844.86lbs) whilst this years Touring diesel that was tested weighs 1715kg (3780.93lbs) I think they mean 1751kg, hope the rest is more accurate. (friday)
