    Fuel Pump Recall. Any done yet?

    Just got back from the dealership. They called last week and asked if I wanted to come in earlier, so I picked today. The only thing I notice is a slight smell of gasoline, which I assume will air out quickly. I give them props, they said it may be over a 2 hour wait, they expected me to drop my...

    CX-5 fully lifted on jack stands?

    I use the rubber pads too. You may need to have the jack stand go one click higher than you think, to allow for compression of the pad.

    CX-5 fully lifted on jack stands?

    Do it all the time to rotate tires. The front of the car is heavier so I raise the front first, and put the front jack stands under it then do the back. It probably makes no difference however. I am scared to go under the car when it is up on 4 jack stands, the couple times I went under the car...

    Average MPG less than 20mpg, am I alone?

    My overall average MPG is 27.2. That includes short trips, since I don't do my usual longer loop to get fully warmed up since gas is so expensive.

    Pep Boys - 2016 CX-5 oil change

    I have to believe that the OP is pulling out legs :-) How many years did it take to get 15K for the oil change? My car is almost 4 years old and doesn't have 15K. And why on earth would he change the oil filter that will have to be changed?

    SkyActiv Oil Analysis Thread

    I have 17 year old oil in my basement, the bottles have not discolored at all. I think it is light that discolors the bottles. My old oil is for lawn equipment, I have no worries at all about using my old oil.

    Are you concerned about signal relaying theft?

    The latest is gas theft. And they do it by drilling a hole in the gas tank. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ih9AMBqLnWU

    2015 CX-5 Misfire

    My guess is the spark plugs need to be replaced, that they are not OEM spec.

    Very faint high pitched "mosquito" sound

    Barely touched a curb with the wheel itself and bent the drivers hub bearing. Bent the hub? What was the symptoms after it got bent?

    A barrel of oil currently at $125. Should we stock up on motor oil?

    I bought a couple 5 quart bottles in November when oil was on sale. Now with the war and the government banning Russian oil, do you think it is prudent to stock up on motor oil before the prices go up? It's a double whammy, transporting it in trucks will make it go up and the base oil price will...

    Can I fix this with a Touch Up Paint Pen?

    Does the scratch look less noticeable whey you wet it? If so it may mostly disappear by using a polishing compound.

    Probably my fault - injector question

    Maybe it's the mass airflow sensor. Isn't it terrible that we second guess the dealership's diagnostic?
