starting with the 2018 models, Mazda did a lot to reduce road noise and vibration. Every years since there have been incremental improvements to NVH. You really have to take on for a test drive in the area you live to see if you notice the difference

Toyota, Honda, and Subaru all use high moly oil for their 0w-20 factory fills. I think it's the same Idemitsu oil for all of them. The 0w-16 and 0w-8 Toyota now specs are also very high in moly

Those prices do not include the destination fee

LOL...you just said to avoid every CX5 from 2018-2024 unless it's a 2021-2024 2.5T model

I don't understand the "stiff" comments. The 17" tires have the most rubber and the CX5 suspension is considered the softest of all the current SUV lineup What vehicle are you coming from? Maybe you're just used to something much softer Allow time for the tires to break in. Give them 500-1000...

Mazda never had remote start on the key fob

That's not a liter over. From the min to max dots is one liter. You're probably about .2-.3 liters over which is hardly anything. Please show us the dipstick

I just switched to 5w-30 on my 2017 Mazda 6. The "feel" of the engine is definitely different. It's only been 2 weeks so it's hard for me to nail down the difference. What has changed is my mpg. I used to get 29-32mpg on my daily commute. Now I get 26-29mpg

there is no need to go thicker than 5w-30 on the turbo

as the models get updated to the newest standards, the system with tire psi numbers gets added. The CX5 is the last one with the older system

That applies to all the current models except the CX5

Half of those things are just personal preference.

Maybe the added weight of a person in the driver's seat vs no one in the passenger side as often caused the front left corner to settle a tiny bit more

They're not even right about the spark plug replacement interval. It's supposed to be every 40k miles for the 2.5T

They likely ****** something up and either got Mazda to goodwill a trans replacement or are eating the cost themselves

A 4 year old vehicle with 55k miles is pretty much avg by US standards

Probably needs the PCM/TCM software updated

you used the correct Akebono parts. their site always lags behind with updating for newer years

Hopefully you replaced both control arms. On a 2015 the bushings are likely cracked and loose

Wait for the '25
