FYI Received a letter from Mazda notifying me of an extension of the warranty on the fail-safe thermostat inside of suspected coolant control vale. Covers 2018 to 2025 CX-5's, as well as some Mazda 3, CX-3, Mazda6 and CX-30. Coverage will extend to 15 years / 150000 miles, whichever comes first...

I recently used a valet parking service at a hospital. After visit car arrived and off I went. Made one stop. Got the no key detected alert. Started with fob on button and went home. The batteries in the fob are pretty new. was starting to investigate and then remembered fob low power mode. You...

FYI. My 2023 CX-5 has a vibration somewhere in the dashboard under certain speeds and road surface type. It's intermittent. Every now and then I start pushing on this and that with no luck. The last time I was searching I tried the overhead light area. While up there my hand hit the sun visor...

Anyone see this report. Maybe we are over teching things. https://arstechnica.com/cars/2022/02/radio-station-snafu-in-seattle-bricks-some-mazda-infotainment-systems/

Before I call dealer which is not always fun, can some one try this. Lock auto any way you want. Try liftgate with key in pocket. Opens or locked? Mine opens and only locks with key out of range. Doors are locked. Thanks

I recently bought a new 2018 Touring. (Very nice) My son is taking my 2015 Sport. When I was cleaning up the Sport I found a star type crack in the passenger side taillight. I suspect the lens is not replaceable by itself. No moisture inside. I would like to do a repair of some kind. My first...

I own a 2015 CX-5 Sport. I'm going to look at a 2018 Touring. I prefer 17" tires and would ask for a swap. Do any of you have a feel for how dealers respond to this request? Any big dollars involved ?

My driveway is on a hill, 2 cars wide. I have two vehicles parked one behind the other. When I wanted to get the car furthest up out I would just roll the lower car back a few feet and drive the upper car around it. With my new CX-5 and keyless start I have found no way to get out of park...

New owner of a 2015 Sport with about 1700 miles. I was checking the oil and then went for the auto transmission dipstick. Well I can't find it and found no mention of it in my book. I see a reference to a sealed unit after a search. So is it sealed and can I assume it's not part of owner...

I wish my 2015 CX-5 had a real FM antenna. I usually listen to college/public radio. In my area they are not all high powered and their transmitter sites may not be on the big hill with the high tower. I had no problem with my Mazda 5 whip antenna. Now I get some drop out where certain stations...

New to the CX-5 and AWD. New 5 with about 1000 mi. For the first time I was in AWD conditions and gave the CX a little kick to see how it would go. I heard a small clunk sound. So was that the AWD engaging? Is it seamless or does it go in and out ? Should I hear anything?

We decided to move over to the CX-5 from a Mazda 5. Just getting acquainted with the CX-5 so I'm sure I'll have a few questions. Purchased a Sport AWD, Auto, 2.5 engine. No extras since the Sport has all we need. Hopes it serves me as well as my 2010 Mazda 5.

It's been a pleasure being on the 5 forum. I have now bought a Mazda CX-5. I want to thank you all for your help, suggestions etc.. The 5 has been great, but we felt we wanted a little more ....mass. In our early 70's and the CX-5 is probably the last vehicle for us. This forum has been very...

I test drove a Sport with a 2.5 engine last week. Very nice. The only option it had was Bluetooth. I like the car and it had all I needed, but I can do without the Bluetooth. Two days after that car was off of inventory. Not one word from the salesman even though I expressed interest in a basic...

With AWD is there a driveshaft to the rear wheels like cars of old? A differential, rear axle etc. ? Just wondering if there is a potential for down the road mechanical problems due to lack of, let's say BEEF. Strong enough? I've read AWD only happens when needed, true? Hope to test drive soon...

I have a 2010 Mazda 5 Sport auto, 2.3L, 153 HP @ 6500 rpm, torque 148 lb-ft @ 4500 rpm engine. A new 2014 5 has 157 HP @ 6000rpm, torque 163 lb-ft @ 4000 rpm. My question is will I likely see a difference in driving between these two cars. Most of what I'm looking for is improved on ramp...

Has anyone her tried the windshield ding repair kits? I have a small hit with a slight crack, about 1/8 inch. Do they really work? Any favorite brands? I've looked around the web and saw a couple of videos. I'm willing to try a repair, but only if it will last. Comments please. Thanks

This column appears in my local Sunday paper. Good question on low profile 5 tires. Ouch! I found a copy here. http://blog.nwautos.com/2011/06/are_low_profile_tires_just_as_safe.html OK folks, what do you think?
