    Difference between 2021 CX-5 Turbo and 2025 CX-5 Turbo?

    Interesting about the brakes as they are exactly the same on a 19 and 25 unless they have changed the pads used. How many miles are on your 19? Have the rotors/pads been replaced? With my '19, which was a non turbo GT, I had no issues with the brakes over 20k miles. On my '21 Turbo with the...

    Blower motor rattles. Worth a trip to the dealer?

    Both videos seem to indicate that the motor is faulty to me. I suspect you will be posting that the dealer replaced it free of charge.

    Lift Gate Badge held on/in with adhesives or pins?

    The point of the OP asking was to find out if they could be removed for debadging. If there will be holes left behind, debaging is kind of off the table (unless you want to do some bodywork too)...

    Guide How To Disable Daytime Running Lights (instructions)

    I just don't understand the purpose of it. Why would they bother? I get it if the car is in park as it won't be moving. Is this for an MX-5 with a manual transmission?

    Guide How To Disable Daytime Running Lights (instructions)

    You are saying when you stop at a red light the DRL's turn off and then back on again when you move again? That is a very strange feature to me. I get them turning off when the turn signal is activated.

    Anyone else experiencing the same infotainment update issue?

    What is the problem? Are you trying to download OTA? It doesn't work. You can get the current software online and update your system via a USB drive, though.

    Guide How To Disable Daytime Running Lights (instructions)

    Huh? What cars shut the DRL's off when the car isn't moving? Maybe I just haven't noticed it. They stay on while cars sit still at a red light. Do you mean while the car is in park?

    Lift Gate Badge held on/in with adhesives or pins?

    It is interesting they use pins. Many folks like to debadge these days and some makes, Porsche for example, allow customers to order the car without badging from the factory.

    Blower motor rattles. Worth a trip to the dealer?

    There is no way they won't replace that blower motor under warranty if it makes that sound all the time. I had a similar issue on a 2011 Tacoma. They swapped it out - no issues. Mazda is pretty good in my experience.

    Used Mazda CX-5 Price Trends and Overview

    So it tracks that Mazda does have a lower retained resale than the big two. I still like my Mazda better and the price was better up front as Mazda was willing to deal on my CX-5.

    Used Mazda CX-5 Price Trends and Overview

    Just did the same with my '21 GTR with 33k miles. The offer was 24,200, which seems about right in comparison to your offer.

    Used Mazda CX-5 Price Trends and Overview

    Is this any different from other brands? I would expect each year to be more valuable than the last and the jump from 21 to 22 is larger due to the refresh of the exterior. I would be interested to know the % retained value per year of the CX5 compared to the CR-V and RAV4.

    How to Restore Worn Out CX-5 Driver Seat?

    If DIY doesn't work you could try contacting a leather refurbishment company. They could possibly recoat the seat. I have heard really good things about this company for DIY products: Leatherique Restoration Products

    Anything is possible if you have the money and time. The better question is: what is easier, upgrading the screen or the car?
