You might need some new calipers. There were some service bulletins regarding problems with the rear calipers. https://mazdas247.com/forum/t/removing-cx-5-brake-maintenance-mode.123882545/ https://mazdas247.com/forum/t/epb-hassle-2016-cx-5.123882444/...

Service mode is very important when replacing the rear pads. Apparently pretty tricky considering how many people end screwing up the calipers when they fail to do the procedure properly.

Are you sure the ebrake is releasing the left and right sides equally? Are the disc pads ok?

I think many of the CX-5 competitors have increased in size over the years... Rav4, CR-V, etc.

I would guess that it could be cheaper to produce a car with a touch screen rather than discreet buttons and knobs.

Ask your mechanic for a scan tool that can display live MPH from the ECU. If the ECU sees speed but the cluster doesn’t, it’s a cluster issue. If no speed shows at all, it’s VSS or wiring. The Chat GPT is impressive. I know I would check while driving with a OBCII "Scangauge' or "Ultragauge'...

I've noticed that my title for the CX-5 lists it as a 5-door wagon. They like to keep things simple, I guess, so maybe they don't have a classification for it.

I would guess some kind of bad connection that opens because of heat but I have no idea where to look. If you don't want to take it to a dealer I wonder if it would be a good idea to call one and ask about it.

I had a vehicle that dripped something green from the compressor during a very cold spell and it had lost the charge. I believe it needed new o-rings on some of the connections.

That connector is for the heater core, isn't it? The green stuff looks like hardened coolant, which is green. Why it is coming out like that is a mystery.

Use a 'T'?

I have purchased the OEM Mazda rubber inserts from amamzon. It's not very hard to replace them. I think I paid about $14 for the front pair

THere might be one or two phillips screws, too. Check this out: https://www.mcx5.org/liftgate_lower_trim_removal_installation-392.html

Is it cooler in the mountains when the car is first started in the morning? Trying a different oil might help. Hard to say what kind of oil would be best. Although the current owner is maintaining the engine properly, how well was the engine treated by the first owner? How many miles did the...

On this last video it sounds like the noise starts right along with the motor as it intially starts up, rather than after it gets up to speed. I wonder if there is something lodged in it that you can't see. I guess it could also be a frayed or loose winding inside the motor, or something wrong...

A person might want to reuse the holes to mount a different badge, I guess. Maybe a Hyundai, Nissan, or maybe a european make. I'm not sure why.

there are wires there for the lights. THere is the 12v acc jack on one side, too.

There are those that have found their AWD differential or transfer case was underfilled at the factory and they added more fluid when they did a fluid exchange.

There are probably enough wires inside the fenders to support the 12v needs. here is what I found online... https://www.amazon.com.au/Genuine-Mazda-Interior-Current-TC11ACCLT/dp/B07HBH8TPQ

I have a 12v inflator set to about that amount, if you trust the readout. About 10% over what they recommend. "38psi all the time"
