Thanks for the tips V8toilet and deuxdiesel. I think what I need is a slim wooden beads pad, the only problem is all of them I found are too wide and I don't want them to cover the side supports. Any one has an idea where can I find in the US different sizes wood beads pads/rugs? It doesn't need...

Oh please, I really love my CX-5 simply because I use it as a work truck and it saves me lots of gas. But driving position ? Have you noticed how your right knee hits the side panel of the central compartment ? I am 170 lbs and 5'11". I don't know how typical American guy can fit in this car...

Perhaps the leather package has better seats.

Folks, I have been trying to adjust as many were advising and its been 30k miles and I hate the drivers seat (2013 Sport). It is so bad that my posture get screwed, I have neck and back pain. I think I finally found out what's exactly wrong with it: The bucket back is too narrow and it curves...

been doing this for a while - one at the night stand one at the bathroom + those in the car and front door.

You are probably right, but I didn't have a choice this time.

I know this is an old thread, but I did another oil change today and I had 3 1/2 quart of the GF-5 with molly and one GF-5 without molly (part number ends on QT instead of MQ I believe). So it was cold outside early morning and I was pouring the oil in when I realized that the non Molly is not...

I changed the oil today and found out that it was dripping from the drain plug. So probably oil consumption is less than originally reported. I changed the washer with a copper one for better seal.

DOES NOT WORK AS OF Nov 8th ! 2013 CX-5 Sport Non-Color radio e.g. the super basic Be Aware!!! Called Metra and they were no help. They told me only the vehicle with the navigation should have different connector and it should work for you! Its totally different, size and pins, and I did get...

I have always drive manuals, owned 5 car in my life and this is the first brand new one and the first one to burn oil. Before that I had Civic Si which I down shifted aggressively but I was changing the oil every 3K miles so it's hard to notice oil consumption. I guess I will have to live...

What do you mean by this? Because the engine is still new or because my downshifting isn't "aggressive "?

In contrast, i've seen many. May be not no soot but not as bad as my CX-5. And back in the 90s I had a Jetta which exhaust pipe was so clean that it had rust on the inside. I don't expect it to be metal clean, by like I said - mine looks like it's a diesel motor.

Oh and FYI, I don't downshift into crazy RPMs, but keep it on gear as long as I can when approaching stop instead of shifting to neutral. For example, I go with 50 mph on sixth, I see a red light in front of me, I let my foot off the gas and when RPMs hit 1500 downshift to 4th or 3rd and then...

Is that true or just theory? Prove? I down shift a lot.

Measured cold, after 5 hours rest.

So I checked my oil level today and for 7000 miles it dropped from 3/4 Of the Max to the Min point. My exhausts are dark dirty like it's a diesel motor. I stopped by the dealer and talked to one of the mechanics and he tells me this: To be considered abnormal, oil consumption must be 1 quarter...

Nice picture! (naughty)

First of all, your head unit's cables are outputs. The one for the antenna you don't need for sure as the CX-5 has another antenna power on lead with the antenna connector. The one for the remote amp on - you will probably only need that IF you have BOSE amp. However, I am not even sure that...

Did anyone had any luck with this?

Laptop bag on the passenger's seat - not heavy enough so airbag is disabled (child protection).
