    First oil change (2024 CX-5 Akera)

    Mazda does use a high moly oil from the factory (same as Honda, Toyota, Subaru) for the 2.5 NA. I wouldn't change it before 7500km/5000 mi

    Buying out my 2022 CX-5 lease, what maintenance will I need to do?

    You may be able to get the dealer to make it a CPO when you buy out the lease for a small fee. Esp if you've already put new tires. That will add 1 year/12k miles to the basic warranty and get the powertrain warranty to 7 yrs/100k miles

    AC Issues...Any ideas? 2016 CX-5

    You probably added way too much from the can. Have you installed a new cabin air filter that is more restrictive than the OEM ones? That can hurt air flow

    Dealer won't use synthetic oil - 2022 CX-5 Turbo

    If he left Mazda in 2019 he doesn't know about the cylinder head cracks or burning oil issues in the 2.5T or the fixes. None of those would have been prevented with 3000 mile oil changes. Those are the only real issues modern Mazda turbos have had.

    Dealer won't use synthetic oil - 2022 CX-5 Turbo

    i stopped taking his turbo advise too seriously when he posted that he left Mazda in 2019. That means that he had very little experience with current gen skyactive turbos, which I think came out in 2017 with the CX9. he's just regurgitating old things said about turbos over the years
