Someone backed into my 6mo old 2024 CX-5 Turbo Premium while I was at work. They did not leave a note. I'm checking to see if it was caught on the lots cameras. There is a crease where the front plate mount contacts the bumper and the black chrome grill trim shifted a little. I'm...

Can anyone confirm if the Toe Control Arm for the KE and KF are interchangeable? Godspeed lists 2 different part numbers for the KE/KF. SPC supposedly fits both. Megan only lists one for the KE. Asking because I prefer the Megan Racing design with rubber bushings over the spherical bearing...

Aloha CX-5 Peeps! I just recently picked up a '24 Turbo Premium and I've been following a lot of your projects and issues. There seems to an only a few spring choices here in the US. However, that is not the case in Japan. I wanted something to get rid of the fender gaps but still...

It's that time. Front brakes are down to <20%. Figured I'd just do all four since the wife has mentioned that she'd like more stopping power. I have front and rear EBC Yellow stuff and Motul 600 RBF ready to install. Here is my issue(bang)... I have measured my rotor thickness variation...

While installing the fumoto valve today, I noticed that both left and right inner CV boots seem to be leaking. I cleaned them up and checked for cracks and/or tears. I found no damage to the boots but noticed they seem to be leaking from the small clamp area(scratch). Any thoughts? Could the...

So last night while I was replacing my bad Koni shock, I notice that my JBR sway bar looks a little funny. I grab the arm and to my surprise it fell off. Per the site description "Sway Bar is TIG welded inside and out then the ends are capped." From the looks of it, the outer weld did not get...

Looking for suggestions... Replace with stock or JBR 70 Duro? Anyone installed a JBR? How much NVH did it add?

Decided to swap out my racing beat rear sway bar with one from JBR. The RB one was a little narrow for the 2012 5. It placed the brackets at the start of the bends and was eating bushing, breaking brackets and causing slight binding until the bushing were worn. Note: RB does not make a bar...

On my way home Thursday I hit with a rock that cracked my windshield. It is beyond repair and needs to be replaced. This is the 1st windshield I'll have to replace in 22 years of driving here in Hawaii. My insurance, Statefarm, denied my claim for an OEM windshield and an aftermarket one from...

Koni-na has an Koni Sport application for the 2012+ (8040 1354Sport) but there is a fitment note. It says... "If rear shock bottom bushing is 35mm wide, use 8040 1353Sport" Anyone know which to order. The 05-09 Sport application list the 8040 1354Sport.

Thinking I may try Koni STR.T shocks. With the koni sale $366.20 shipped to Hawaii. Going to pair these with H&R sport springs. Would love to get bilstein mono tubes but $$ is to much for a DD. FSD cannot be used with springs. And, I just dont want to deal with the adjustables especially...

Argh! (bang) The engineers couldn't have timed it better. 500 miles out of warranty and the check engine light goes on. A few weeks back we took our 2012 5 in because my wife said the car lunged a few times after coming to a stop. This was at 35940ish miles. Dealer said couldn't find...

Installed a Racing Beat RSB, AWR endlinks and Energy Suspension greasable brackets. However, I keep breaking things... 1st it was the endlinks... I broke the factory ones (no surprise there) and I also broke 2 sets of CorkSport ones. Finally I changed to AWR endlinks and now I bent the brackets...

Mazda does not make touch up paint for our wheels. Do any aftermarket companies make anything that matches pretty well? My wife scrapped one of the wheel on our 2012 5 this morning. @ $550 a wheel, replacement is not an option. Post your recommendations, experiences along with the products...

So... I've had my racing beat RSB installed for quite some time now. But recently I been breaking end links. I broke the stocks (no surprise there) then I also broke a brand new set of Corksport end links in less than a week. I think it is because of my father's driveway in combination with...

Finally replaced the OEM Toyos. The Toyos still had a lot of life left (~50%) but were getting too loud. Picked up some Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sports. Hopefully the almost 4 million miles of reviews on tire rack are correct. Selection criteria was... Summer tire (it's always summer here...

Looking for ideas to add a little bit of bottom end to my system. Nothing big no larger than an 8". Preferably it would fit under a seat or dash and needs to be concealed as per the wife's requirements. :). Also must preserve all storage areas and tools.

Postman just dropped this off... Factory double din face plate and audio fit kit from Japan. Now, just have to decide what HU to get. :)

Enjoy:) <img src="http://api.photoshop.com/v1.0/accounts/150d93e082424234ab8cbd0fc88c307d/assets/eec168491d0a4844900f78a13826da57" width="800" height="600"/>
