    I have a '16 CX-5 Sport with the 2.5L skyactiv engine. What is the oil change interval? Is it six months or 5k or twelve months or 10k? The dealer suggests every four to five months or so. I live in sunny South Florida and drive about 20 miles a day. Roughly put about 5k miles every six...

    2016 CX-5 Sport Pennzoil PZ-37 oil and filter change

    I also prefer the Mazda oil filters at the dealer. I know the Oil change places don't use the best filters.

    I saw on RockAuto they have a Gates and ACDelco belt tensioner for $67 max.. I believe both of them provide lifetime warranty on the part. I was thinking of going with an AC Delco part.. Do you guys recommend using either brand?

    Costco Interstate battery test

    The one thing I noticed was that when I turn off the Cx-5 and lock it with the key fob, I see the security light flashing on the dashboard every few seconds. I imagine this must drain the battery somewhat overnight when it is parked. Also, during the day time when it is parked.

    So I emailed Interstate battery support and they replied stating that the new battery should test at 550 CCA. They said it could be possibly defective and advised me to take it to an authorized interstate distributor in my area to get it tested. I'll probably take it to Advanced Auto parts...
