    Toyo A36 in snow

    Ok in snow, beware of rear end kicking out going fast around 90 degree turns. Lifting off throttle brings it back in.

    Lucas fuel treatment every 2500 miles and Techron 500 miles before oil change. Don't rant without first trying.

    I was getting a rattle from the plastic panel under the steering wheel on rough road surfaces at low speeds. I used 3 layers of duct tape inside the plastic panel to dampen the vibrations. Rattle gone!

    2018 CX-5 Low Speed Transmission Hesitation/Jerk/Lurch

    After the ECU flash recall my low speed hesitation seems to be gone. I am getting 1 MPG more too. I wonder if the reflash is more than just for the rocker issue.

    Dealer says no transmission dipstick on 2018 CX5

    Looking further at the instruction it appears the hose bracket is only removed, I initially thought a hose had to be disconnected. I may give it a go after the engine temp light hits 122 degrees.

    Dealer says no transmission dipstick on 2018 CX5

    Showed the reprint to service writer. He said he was unaware of dipstick. Still wanted to charge 1 hour labor. Talked to service manager and negotiated .5 hr labor at $75. I do not think is worth the expense after all.
