I find I cant open the lift gate with the dash button when sitting in the car with the engine running and transmission in park when doors are closed. If I open the door the button will activate the lift gate. I could swear that in the past I was able to. Whats going on?

At my 80.000K (50,000m) check at Mazda had to replace leaking valve cover gasket Wonder if this is premature.

I did a search and there are many posts on the issue of mirrors not closing. My Signature is now six years old and I have already replaced the driver side mirror for this reason. However it too now suffers the same problem. I wonder if there has ever been a definitive fix.

At my 80,000 kilometer (50,000 mile) maintenance I'm told I need new axel rubber boots. Is this a reasonable mileage for this or is it exceptionally early?

All of a sudden (at 80.000 Kilometros) there is no camera image when moving either in reverse or forwarward and pressing "view" button on the control buttons lower left produces no image. I can see other images on the screen such as Waze with no problem so do I have something set wrong or need...

About five and a half years ago not long after buying my Signature I purchased from and had installed by the dealership the roof rails. Now, beginning several months ago I'm getting a water drip from the forward connection of the drivers side roof grab handle after a rain or washing the car...

On my 2020 Signature I have the fog light switch on the stalk turned on but it appears they only come on when headlights (not daytime driving lights) are on. I have the headlights set to auto. Maybe the fog lights would stay on if I switched the headlights to manual?

As some posters know I drive my 2020 Signature over several kilometers of unpaved road on a daily basis. For the last month or so I hear a clunking when driving over the section that sounds like something in the underpinnings is loose and banging against the floor board. I will be taking it into...

I watched a YouTube review of the 2025 CX-5 and the reviewer made no mention of the infotainment system's ability to set radio stations with voice commands. As he seemed to be making an effort to comment on every aspect of the car I thought that an odd omission. My 2020 Signature has that...

I'm reading the transmission fluid is considered lifetime by Mazda but what about going through a deeply flooded street? How sealed is the transmission?

Driving down my mountain this morning I wanted to shift manual mode into 2nd for engine breaking but to my surprise I couldn't shift up or down in manual mode and no gear number appeared on the dash, just the small "m". Automatic with the shift lever moved to the right continued to work...

I am in Colombia , South America and always have the headlight switch set to automatic so there are daytime headlights. Oddly I rarely see another CX 5 (and there are many!) with their daytime headlights on. Obviously it is n important safety practise that has no down side. Offhand the only...

The Mazda repair shop sent me this photo saying need replacement What components are being shown in the photo?

Mazda has stopped offering the turbo versions of the CX-5 in Colombia. I asked the service manager why and he said "pricing" so I guess the turbo CX-5 would compete with something else in their lineup. He said they do offer a turbo in a couple of other models, I think the CX-30 is one. With the...

My bad, I haven't paid much attention to temperature as it was always fine but recently while parked for a moment the engine started running at a high RPM. Checking the gauge I saw the needle was definately higher than normal though well below the red zone. The next day with the engine cold I...

Not a critical issue by any means but I'm left a bit surprised. For quite a long time now I've had to press the key fob buttons hard and sometimes repeatedly to activate the doors and trunk lid. Today I finally got around to getting a new battery in the fob and low and behold light (normal )...

I think I've seen references to this issue but I don't remember where. In the last few days when I park the car the mirrors close as they are supposed to but the drivers side doesn't open when I unlock the car. I have to play with the mirror control in the door and eventually I can physically...

I just got my 2020 Signature back from the Mazda shop where it had the 65,000 kilometer (40,400 mile) maintenance. To my amazement it needed yet another battery (they showed the current battery specs so I assume legit). This is the fourth battery! (The last three have been Willard). Whats more...

I just took a gander at the Mazda website here in Colombia and the only up scale options that show up for the CX-5 are a "Carbon Edition" with 188hp non turbo motor. Is the turbo version of the CX-5 no longer an offering?

I'm curious to know when the rear axel engages when starting up a steep incline. Also is there some sort of progressive engagement or is the engagement just on/off?
