    Transmission noise/vibration in 6th gear

    I just picked up 2021.5 CX-5 GS with comfort package. It was less than 200km on it but I’ve noticed that while driving on the highway the transmission makes almost a whine/droning noise around 2000RPM. The sound will go away just under 1500RPM and below or 2300RPM and above. It can be slightly...

    Interior Door Panels Rippled

    I have a 2021 CX-30 and noticed that when the sun hits the upper door panel (black), vertical ripples or bumps can be seen. I checked and all four doors have this. Has anyone else experienced this? Seems like a fairly significant quality control issue.

    Rust on Inner Door Panel

    I was washing my CX-5 yesterday and upon drying the inside of the doors, I noticed some bubbling on the inside lower seam (pinch weld) of the passenger side rear door. I began to peel away the seam sealer and was blown away by the rust. I checked the other side in the same area and there are no...

    Front Sway Bar Bushing Replacement

    Im starting to get some front end noise and I believe it to be my sway bar bushings. FSM says the sub frame needs to be dropped in order to replace. I know other Mazda models call for the same procedure but people are able to gain access without removing the sub frame. Has anyone attempted...

    "Popup" Infotainment Screen

    I had a brief look at a 2014 Mazda3 Sport (Canada). The car was parked on a dealer lot and I didn't have the chance to get inside and really see the interior. That being said, the infotainment screen appears to be fixed into position, as opposed to popping up from the dash as originally planned...

    Protecting the A/C Condenser from Rocks

    My 2012 M5 has very little to protect the a/c condenser from debris, specifically rocks. The grill on the bottom and smaller grill just under the Mazda logo enable some decent sized rocks to pass through. I know who wins the battle between a flying rock and a condenser. I did some research on...

    I'm installing an aftermarket stereo in my M3. It is my understanding that the Scosche wire harness I'll be using does not have a dimmer wire. I know that the factory harness has an illumination wire that it controlled by the dimmer by the instrument cluster. However, I'd like to find away to...

    HVAC Question

    I noticed the other day that a small amount of air can be felt coming through all four front vents when the mode selector is set to defrost/front windshield. Is this normal? It seems odd to me and I've never had another vehicle do this.

    We just picked up our 5 almost two weeks ago and have racked up just over 2,000km. But from day one, I feel a vibration in the steering wheel when travelling 110km/hr and above. It doesn't visibly shake, but when my hand is on the wheel, there is a distinct vibration. I took it into the dealer...
