    New Rear Brakes at 10,000?

    I'll get a second opinion.... I got to think it's a mistake. I was thinking at least 15K

    New Rear Brakes at 10,000?

    My wife took the '16 in for that gas tank pipe recall today. When she picked it up they told her the back brake pads were getting low. I'd thought they would last around 15K and the front brakes would go first.

    2013~2016 CX-5 Strut and Shock replacement

    Put FSDs on my son's Volvo C30 (with Eibach springs) and think it rides better than stock. Heard some negative comments on FSDs leaking but it does come with lifetime replacement

    CX-5 front windows tint

    Man, you'd have a good chance of getting pulled over in California with that dark of tint. When I first read the title I thought it said front window (windshield)... you know they make a clear tint that blocks the UV too. Wonder if that could be put on the windshield, that way the dash and...

    Will H&R Sport Springs (28875-1) fit my '16 CX-5 GT?

    I have to believe H&R test the springs on cars using the stock shocks. How else could they do it? There are companies like Tein and Tokico that sell combo spring/shock packages but to be honest they don't sell as well as just springs. Like I said earlier, the vast majority of people just want...

    Will H&R Sport Springs (28875-1) fit my '16 CX-5 GT?

    My experience is that there two types of lowering springs: linear or progressive. On cars I don't track, I like progressive as the manufacturer usually tries to keep the first part of travel similar to stock and then it get progressively harder due to the shorter spring travel. So average...

    Will H&R Sport Springs (28875-1) fit my '16 CX-5 GT?

    I'm sure they're not... but I bet most people are not that critical and are buying the springs for the stance more than anything else (and hoping the ride is as close to stock as possible).

    stage 1 suspension on NB

    Hi, I just put a flyin Miata stage 1 suspension, with race beat front sway bar on my 99 Miata. Boy the rear sure does feel stiff, even on the softest setting. Sounds like the chassis flexes leaving driveways etc.. Anything I could of done to make the suspension bind up.. all looks normal but...

    Will H&R Sport Springs (28875-1) fit my '16 CX-5 GT?

    I bought a used pair but haven't put them on yet. I noticed that some shocks now cover all years. Probably just taking a while for HR to update their catalog

    Request to call Mazda Corp: For Live Traffic

    I don't consider it "whining" to contact Mazda about this. At the beginning of this thread, a Mazda rep said they respond to complaints. At the very least, they now know that many consider it an important feature and perhaps they will put more emphasis on it. No one on here is advocating...
