@Anchroman: The wheels and tires were not flagged as problematic by their roadforce machine. I do not think they had the most modern and advanced version, but it "passed" after adding .25 ounce weights to each wheel. Visually, tires and wheels looked ok to me and the tech. No abnormal wear...

Car is fixed. Props to the crew over at Patrick Mazda in MA. Took them on a test drive in my car. Confirmed vibration even after they've roadforce balanced and swapped on the tires from a loaner that was very smooth on highway. Service manager suggested taking never before driven CX5 for...

Yikes, what a typo! I have Touring AWD 2018 CX-5 in MA. I agree the 98 miles were high. The interesting thing is we test drove this vehicle brand new a couple months before we purchased it. It had the plastic on it everywhere and single digit miles on the odometer. I didnt notice the 98...

98 miles on the cock when we took delivery. In fact the vibration is worse with the swapped tires.

Roadforce improved but still vibration. Swapped tires with loaner they gave me that was smooth. Still bit of vibration. They happened to give me a 2018 cx5 as loaner. That one was smooth on same roads. Frustrated.

We need a bit more storage for key fob, phones, glasses etc. Has anyone used the seat gap fillers successfully in the 2017/2018? Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Power-Tiger-CAR-ACCESSORIES-Pack%EF%BC%89Powertiger/dp/B0743663D3 Wondering how stable it stays while people get in...

The dealer is waiting to hear back from Mazda to decide on next steps. I think they are trying to get approval to pay a third party tire store to check the balance. I do not believe the tires were rotated during the balance as it's not on the work order.

They balanced all 4 according to the work order. I just double checked the wheels, I can see new weights on all 4 wheels. FWIW, this has happened to others: https://www.mazdaforum.com/forum/mazda-cx-5-54/cx-5-touring-vibration-39336...

I can tell they put new weights on 2 of the 4 tires after doing the wheel balance. It's definitely much improved. Used to feel it everywhere including through the steering wheel. Now, steering wheel is ok, but I feel the vibration through the seat. I can also see my phone shaking a bit in...

Recently picked up 2018 Touring CX-5. Noticed vibration between 60-75 MPH on highway. Present even on freshly paved highways, just coasting, accelerating, up and downhill. Dealer re-balanced the wheels and it improved. However, vibration is still present. I've asked them to do a roadforce...

Thanks for the confirmation everyone. Any thoughts on moving to a 215/65 R17? It's about 1.8% smaller compared to 225/65. The advantages I see are, price is about $20 less per tire compare to the 225/65, and the marginally thinner tire might give slightly better snow traction. Anybody run...

Thanks for the reply alphadog00 and PMs with abeln2672. It turns out the issue was the pins on the wire were too short to make proper contact. Easy fix, cut the pins off, strip the wire to about 1.5 inches. Plug in and it was good to go. Taking off the trim was surprisingly easy with $10...

Any of you Serial Hack Ninjas help clarify the serial wiring? When I look at the power and more connector, do you push the tx and rx into the far right ports that have no existing wiring going in? Or the ports that already have the wires present? If you are looking at the screen, is it the...

2004-2006 Era 17" Mazda 3 Wheels on 2018 CX-5? I just picked up a 2018 CX-5. I have the OEM wheels from our old 2005 Mazda3 still. Could we use them on the CX-5 for winters? I'm thinking too narrow? Specs from the Mazda3 wheels: Bolt pattern - 5x114.3 Size - 17-inch Width - 6.5 inches...

Just picked up 2018 Touring AWD with Preferred package for 27,322 + tax, tag, license. The car also has wheel locks and the bumper guard. Included in the price is $500 loyalty and $500 mazda incentive.

New here (obviously), but Ive been looking to buy a used P5 in the boston area. Here are my findings: Dealers would price your car in the 8,500-10k range. I spoke to one dealer about an 02 with everything cept leather and 60K miles. They listed it at 10K. Without even seeing it, they...
