    Gen 3 CX-5: Owners Chime In

    My experience with the parking brake not auto hold. My 2017 CX-5, after starting, would auto release the parking brake when the accelerator was depressed. I remember reading it in the 2017 manual thinking, great idea. I have not tested it on my 2025. I had a loaner CX-50 for a while and I really...

    Hi Ya, bought a new 2025 CX-5 Premium Plus in Sept, currently has 2,400 mi. Was accelerating from 40ish to 55 and it felt like something slipped then the dashboard lights came on. Immediate lights were check engine light, solid not flashing. Also on was AT Transmission warning in center console...

    2025 CX-5 PP Understanding Traffic Jam Assist (TJA)

    I believe you are correct, since the icon is used for multiple functionality I believe I have confused TJA steering wheel assist with "Steering Wheel Operation Assist". It appears to me the only way to tell the functionality being used is by the difference in the color of the icon. Amber for...

    2025 CX-5 PP Understanding Traffic Jam Assist (TJA)

    Its pretty clear to me I do not understand TJA and am more confused after reading the manual. My understanding is that this functionality works with i-Activesense in traffic jams. This is my experience. When cruise control is inactive with no white or green MRCC icon displayed the TJA amber...

    2025 PP CX-5 Cylinder Deactivation Question

    No I did not know, Thanks! All of these are good to know. I am really loving Mazda's iStop implementation. I did not know about the other conditions that need to be met. That's especially good to know. Ive been driving the car more than reading the manual. I need to catch up on my reading.

    2025 PP CX-5 Cylinder Deactivation Question

    Thanks, RedBarron pointed out that I was actually asking about i-Stop and confusing the two. I didnt think iStop was working as expected. Turns out the non-issue was user error. I was not depressing the brake far enough to activate it.

    You are correct, I have confused the two. I was talking about iStop. Thank you! I guess it would be helpful if I actually asked the right questions.

    2025 PP CX-5 Cylinder Deactivation Question

    Thanks for all the responses! I retested and it seems I am not pushing the break down far enough to activate it. DOH! So it is working as expected. Stickerbush mentioned there was no way to turn it off? The sales guy showed me a specific button on the lower left of the dash, by TCS on/off. I...

    2025 PP CX-5 Cylinder Deactivation Question

    Just bought a new 2025 this past saturday. Love the car, but it doesnt seem to me CDA is working. I had the CDA turned off by the sales rep for the test drive. Now that I have been driving a few days it has occured to me that it should be reactivating every time I restart the car? I have noted...

    New 2025 CX-5 Premium Plus Owner

    Hope you are loving it I just purchased one yesterday with the only difference being I went with the black interior. Previously, I had a 2014 CX-5 Grand Touring and a 2017 Grand Touring. Before purchasing this time I spent a month test driving/researching Subarus and Toyotas. In the end I came...

    2017~2025 CX-5 Cruise Control in Mountains

    When driving in the mountains is it ok to let cruise control handle down shifting/braking to keep my speed at the posted 35mph or should I do this manually? On rolling hills around mountains is it more fuel efficient for me to accelerate / decelerate because I can see when a hill is coming and...

    2017~2025 CX-5 Check Engine light code P2610

    Also I just wanted to add the dealership wanted $136 to diagnose the check engine light code before they did any work. So in my mind its stupidity not to have a check battery light. I talked my way out of the diagnosis charge but it seems really wack

    2017~2025 Windshield Cracks Easily

    Remember back in the day when every week there was a posting about the weakness of Mazda glass. Apparently it seems other manufacturers are having the same issue. Kia and Subaru have been catching a lot of heat lately7 https://news.yahoo.com/kia-telluride-subaru-forester-owners-153600822.html
