    2016 CX-5 Sport spark plug question

    I just took my '16 CX-5 sport for an oil change at yesterday at dealership. Noticed on the receipt that they use the MV oil filter. Is there an issue with the MV oil filter? I don't want to take the car to firestone or other places. Trust the dealership more for oil changes.

    2016 CX-5 Rear view mirror falls off

    The original screw was on the mirror. For some reason it was not tight, and the mirror would pop out if I put those sunshades which would sometimes cause the mirror to pop out and fall. So, I got T20 Torx screwdriver from walmart and used it to tighten it. It's the same type of screw as seen...

    2016 CX-5 Rear view mirror falls off

    So, your mirror keeps getting loose even though you have tightened it three times in the past? When you actually tighten the screw, how many turns to hold it? Just asking since turning it too many times can potentially crack the windshield.

    2016 CX-5 Rear view mirror falls off

    I just went back to and untightened the screw because I think I had tightened it a little too much. Then just tightened it enough, but not too much. Do you have the link to the service alert by any chance?

    2016 CX-5 Rear view mirror falls off

    Mine doesn't have the auto dimming feature. I believe on mine the screw has to be tightened. The screw looks exactly like yours and the one in the video. Just need to get that screwdriver.

    2016 CX-5 Rear view mirror falls off

    My '16 CX-5 sport rear view mirror sometimes comes off the sliding clip when I am putting a sunshade on. I notice there seems to be some sort of screw that probably needs to be tightened to secure it. I can manually slide the mirror back on the clip but maybe that screw needs to be tightened...

    2016 CX-5 Paint on hood not shiny

    I haven't tried it yet. But I will surely try this, but on a small portion of the hood first and see if I can restore the shine. Then wax that area. After washing the car, do I need to use a clay bar? Then use the compound?
