    Official 2026 Mazda CX-5 Pics and Details Released

    Official 2026 Mazda CX-5 Pics and Details Released

    And that is my point, Gen 2 was also a refresh, still using the original chassis and reskinning it. Gen 3 is doing the same thing, just stretching the wheelbase a bit for more legroom. Don't get me wrong, it's an upgrade in some respects (and a downgrade in others), but they could have done...

    Official 2026 Mazda CX-5 Pics and Details Released

    Mazda dropped the performance power train they offered previously. The chassis is a stretched version of the original chassis from the first gen CX-5. So, literally, they have refreshed the same car twice for Gen 2 and Gen 3. There has not been an entirely clean sheet redesign of the car...

    What 5W30 oil brand do you use in your CX-9?

    I definitely went with the 30k interval on my most recent two cars and will do so with my Telluride. Better safe than sorry.

    Did Mazda make a mid year engine change?

    The Kia stop-start system works fine. I don't like my motor turning off at stops. It makes me nervous, which isn't worth the tiny advantage in fuel economy it provides.

    Did Mazda make a mid year engine change?

    Just like the idle stop/start systems. Most folks hate it. I immediately overrode it on my Telluride.

    What 5W30 oil brand do you use in your CX-9?

    For 99.9% of the motoring community, it really doesn't make any difference what brand of oil is used as long as it meets Mazda specs. This is a lot to do about nothing IMHO.

    What 5W30 oil brand do you use in your CX-9?

    If you got it at 24k and it never had an oil change, it seems you have done well to get to 90k without issues.

    I think he only has one tire to get rid of not a whole set.

    2017~2025 CX-5 17" vs 18" vs 19" Wheels

    18" will be a slightly better ride with a taller sidewall than the 19", but you will lose some handling ability in trade. Only you can decide what you are willing to give up.
