@CX5_Driver : Thanks. I am just giving my experience and some data by the manufacturer. Seems data supports the fact that it has low viscosity and at the same time high boiling point in comparison to most in the market today. I did have another link - can't find it in a pinch, this however comes...

Yes - had Valvoline, same as yours. But this seems to be better. Of course, its debatable since my foot got used to the mushiness. Its viscosity and temp ratings are higher than most. BTOG also stated its really good. That's why shared. For reference, The Bosch fluid is 518 dry, 365 wet, visc 670

Thankfully I am at 44,000 miles. Will report, 100%. @yrwei52 : nice to hear from you!! Long long time!!

Will report. Thanks.

Bosch ESI6-32N Brake Fluid (Direct Replacement for DOT 3, DOT 4, and DOT 5.1) - 1 Quart https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07338GQM8/?tag=m20b7-20

I spoke to him and he completely agrees. 2 points (I showed him this thread). He said 100% correct. Only thing he mentioned was he was forced to review the condition of brake lines AFTER he changed brake fluid but still found not good (braking). That is when he is seeing vehicles CX5 2014 and...

SOLVED

Very very little. I'd say around 2 tablespoons. BUT: It happens every time I leave the car for +2 days (+48 hrs). 1 more thing: I have the car in the same spot always. This never happened till now. I'd say started from around last week of December.

Due to pandemic, car is parked for long duration in NJ cold. When it gets really cold I am noticing some oil underneath my car. As out of warranty need advice. I found a TSB 01-014/15. I wanted to first take it to my trusted mechanic but wanted to know if anyone else faced this issue and how to...

This is really good. My hunch seems correct. Here are 2 links for TSBs on this: https://www.carcomplaints.com/Mazda/CX-5/2016/tsbs/tsb-09-015-20-3698.shtml https://www.carcomplaints.com/Mazda/CX-5/2016/tsbs/tsb-09-015-20-3698b.shtml

Shucks. Got it! Thanks

I have the list of TSBs applicable for my CX-5 2016 and find some of them may be applicable for me. If I take it to the dealership and mention the issue and assuming they find the TSB will they (Mazda) cover the issue? Or should I even give them the TSB #?

Metal or braided type - as per my SA has its own issues. He said even top end performance cars like Porche, Massarati, etc. are using rubber hoses. The issue is flexibility and metal/braided lines tend to last less and fail at the fittings' end ; unless some really high-end lines which has...

As I mentioned in some threads the service manager for Mazda happens to know be a close acquaintance of mine. He used to be gear head and you might have actually seen him in one of the F&F movies even! Anyways he has always given me good advice. 1 thing he mentioned is he has started to see few...

Thank God the end cap having my vehicle's color is still good!

CLOSED - found it. KR25-69-181A

After almost 20,000 miles: update: FANTASTIC. Still no road noise, recent (3 weeks back snow) ZERO slippage. FANTASTIC. The fuel mileage though ahem: got 22 avg when in winter (TOYO) used to get avg 23.

Whenever I wanted to store a location I went to favorites - add section and added location. I was checking something and kept the favorites button pressed for few seconds. Suddenly a message appeared in my screen saying location XXX saved as favorite. Wow .. learned something new yesterday!!

My driver side mirror assembly got hit and basically warrants a replacement. The good news is the mirror is intact. It has heated option, signal and has blind monitor. Everything still functions including the motor but the plastic housing broke and the bottom part clipped off and broke. Now I...

Can I clone a new not yet locked to any vehicle SD card containing N.A. maps (I bought one from ebay) or I must first lock it to my vehicle (+65 miles, etc.) and then only will be able to clone it? Just bought a BHP1 66 EZ1N from by Mazda service guy for 45 USD. He said that's the latest there...
