Other than perhaps more pad wear to rear from Electronic Brake Force Distribution still on stock calipers on my ‘15. EBD on many makes causes more wear on the rear pads. I see the same on my Infiniti and Lexus as well and consider it normal these days IMO.

Looks wettest to me around the FIPG at the pan. I’d clean up with brake cleaner and then apply some talcum or baby powder to the general area. That should highlight where it is coming from pretty quickly

I'm usually not in a hurry & wait...not a fan of draping the hose over the rear of the vehicle. 4 year old info https://www.idriveyourcar.com/blog/most-common-side-for-the-fuel-door

My 2007 Infiniti G35x (V36) I wish all my cars did .. it would certainly speed me through far more fuel fillups

I've never used anti-sieze on lug nuts myself. Never had issues removing but perhaps some areas of the country that use salt it could help. Plenty of other stuff (15 other things, toys and vehicles need maintenance throughout the year).... but this does change torque rating by like 20-30% (need...

The rear differential breather at least in my ‘15 is terminated in the cargo area right side https://mazdas247.com/forum/t/cx-5-rear-diff-and-transfer-case-fluid-change-tools-parts-and-links.123850370/page-7#post-6743712

I’ve used Mazda 0W-20 moly since new. No noticeable oil consumption between oil changes. I’m staying the course Currently around 89k miles I find this a very informative oil channel with in-depth coverage of everything oil related Coverage on additive packages was eye opening as one size...

Are you able to share that dealer? I see similar pricing at Med Center and Mazda Swag but you have to get over $100 for free shipping Med Center charged me $135 last month ••• Oops.. forgot I got two oil change kits :-)

OP said 2.0L in post Not sure where OP is located but in US market all CX-5 in 2013 were 2.0L

Next year for me it is going to be '25 CX-70 PHEV or a '25 RX 450h+ PHEV to replace the '07 G35x (V36 Skyline) Leaving it up to the wife on what she likes best '15 CX-5 will still be in the stable for another 10 years along with my lifetime GX 460 (150 series LC Prado)

If you do have to do bumper cover this may be useful

Are there a couple bolts or hose connections one can't get to through the fender or top? I could have sworn when I was replacing fog lights with my Morimotos years back and looking up there it seemed accessible but maybe I'm having a false memory.

I'd remove the fender liner on front right wheel and get at it that way

Regular…they were not value line parts

If it ever turns wet there that will likely be the cause but personally I wouldn’t bother with getting it fixed unless leak was significant enough to even allow drops to make it to the ground beyond the splash shield Example from TSB

Madar: You have that oil residue on this area that required a rear main seal replacement on mine It was never enough to cause noticeable oil drop on dipstick though I’d clean up and see if it comes back. Mine would reappear until RMS was replaced...
