Good on you for declining their BS money making services. They pulled the plugs? All of them? Yikes!!!! Perhaps they screwed something up doing this? You may want to pop the hood, pull the engine cover, and have a close looksee at the plugs, wires, and coil packs and whatever else is under...

More likely is marginal gas, you fill up recently? I seriously doubt that one could actually feel the difference in driving between those two weights of oils.

My understanding of the Electric Parking Brake is that below a certain speed (5mph? as stated by Gozo above) one 'click' of the switch will give you a hard brake, as was found out by Gozo. But above a certain speed one click of the switch does nothing. This prevents accidental activation of...

You want to completely remove the parking brake and go without? Bad idea, very bad. You ever park on a hill? It's possible to park on a hill and then not be able to shift the trans out of park because the parking brake wasn't used. LOTS of us use the EPB without issue. You'd be MUCH better...

I've gone on vacation for 6 weeks many times and come back to my CX and it started right up, no problems. I didn't have it on a tender either, although I do use a tender on all of my cars regularly. During the year I always move the tender around between all of my vehicles. I keep it on one...

The system doesn't wake up till an action is taken. Either the action buttons on the car or a fob button press. The car 'listens' for a signal from the fob (button press) and uses power for that. Of course, it also listens from an action button press. If you press an action button on the car...

My CX has auto HVAC my MX does not. I like auto MUCH better! Saying this, I almost never use the system in my MX cuz 99% of the time I have the top down. I occasionally use heat in that situation. Why would you be changing the recirculation from inside to outside every few mins? The only time...

I like the automatic HVAC in the CX. " I never use automatic mode and I'm always having to take my eyes off the road to see which buttons to press and what setting everything is on." I don't understand, you never use automatic mode? If you did, then you wouldn't have to take your eyes off the...

And you'd prefer to disable a safety feature for this once-a-year drive through? How about some 3M painter's tape? Tape over the lights just before you go into the neighborhood. Just a thought.

I dump in 5 quarts in the CX and call it good. This takes the level to right below the full tick on the dipstick. On my MX, it calls for 4.5 quarts and that's exactly what I put in, this takes the level to just below the full tick. One of the nice things about owning these two cars is that...

The vastly superior 2016.5 CX-5 DRLs (daytime running lights) uses dedicated bulbs, not the headlamps. So, there's no worry about the headlamps burning out prematurely. I'm all for DRLs, ANYTHING that increases your conspicuity on the road is a good thing. Take this from a motorcyclist. The...

If you're familiar with Docusign then you know what it is and what it's about. If you don't, you don't need to worry because you're not using the service. Docusign is an electronic method of legally signing documents online. I received a Docusign notice yesterday via email. I've received these...

Definitive proof! Love it! So, OP, what say you?

Feel free not to read my posts then.

I have a similar experience, but it only happens on one section of highway that I travel regularly. The road looks fine to the eye, but I get a strange vibration when driving this section of highway, it happens with all my vehicles, except for my motorcycles that is. The CX is most noticeable...

I'm talking about my 2016.5 GT. I'm not going to dig it out, but I'm quite sure that the manual for my CX said 32gb max size for the flash drive. Perhaps a larger flash drive can be used but it has to be partitioned. All I know is that since I bought the CX new back in 2016, I've been using...

I ripped most of my CD collection onto 10 or so 32gb flash drives, all formatted with FAT32. I don't remember where I read this but FAT32 is a requirement as is the max size of 32gb. I have had zero problems with my drives and all work as intended. I also believe that I read somewhere that...

Have a look at this thread over on the Miata forum. Perhaps you're already a member there? https://forum.miata.net/vb/showthread.php?t=723106&highlight=key+fob The fobs for the MX and the CX are identical, almost anyways. My CX doesn't have a trunk/hatch button on the fob, the MX does...

Dunno about the leaking. It may not be now but the way it looks, it's not going to hold up in the long run. Did you draw this to the attention of the carwash operator?

Ouch! How close did you have the nozzle to the weatherstripping?
