The Facebook posts are where you tend to see most of the issues and I can't remember seeing a single thing on CD on a NA engine. Not a single thing. There are lot of posts on the oil burning issue but that we all know about. The whole CD issue was way overblown.
Toyota is going to sell more cars because they have more dealers (greater than 2:1 when compared to Mazda and in many more cities).
My local dealer has 11 CX-50's and over 63 CX-5's listed on their site. But if you go to the dealer, they have 1-2 CX-50's and the rest most likely are in transit...
I have repeatedly mentioned this in posts through this thread but the strange thing is that if you check at any point below 4K miles, everything looks fine. After that, from 4K to 5K, the levels drop dramatically.
The link I gave above is now stating that the Australian I6 is a de-tuned version of the engine to meet emissions requirements in Australia.
The HP and Torque of the I6, if it is the top end model, will have to be higher than the 2.5/Hybrid engine.
And their 2.5T makes 300 hp and 311. If Mazda is competing with the MDX, they are going to be in trouble with this. Their v6 makes 290 hp and their turbo is 355.
The failure of the Sky-X to be used in the USA, the development of high displacement gas powered engines in the era of $5-10/gallon...
I just recently saw a CX-50 on the road and it was really nice looking. Pictures don't do it justice and it is great to hear that the CX-60 is similar. Can't wait for the CX-70 and CX-90!
I actually have three cars that have this issue, a 2021 CX-9, a 2021 CX-5 and a 2021 Mazda 3. I have purchased five Mazda's from my local dealer in the last three years, and sent them 2 other people to buy Mazdas, so I am expecting them to take care of me. And they have indicated they will.
This is something I have noticed with that CX-9 and the CX-5. The oil loss is not linear and is associated with long trips. It goes really fast after 4500 miles.
Actually, our CX-9 at close to 45K miles seems to be dong better, but not sure if it is because they are overfilling (going to dealer). The oil level goes below the top hole, but the light does not come on anymore.
Our 2021 CX-5 with less than 20K miles, has the light go on at about 2K miles...
