    2015 Mazda CX-5?

    Why do they use that screen on top of the dash, looks like a stupid aftermarket unit glued on the dash.

    Engine suddenly stalls

    Video tape it while you drive, then go to the dealer and show it to them, then they can't say it didn't happen, tell them to drive the car all day for a week if they have to, be firm about it, it's their job to fix problems on new cars.

    Oil Change Mechanic Questions 0W-20 (2014 CX-5)

    Cool thanks! So it's about thickness and flow, not protection at different temps, my bad, I always thought it was the other way around.

    Hugely disappointed.

    They need to seriously re-do the interior, back seats are flat and hard, Nav is so small it looks like my 5" phone is there, when everyone else has gone 7-8" for the past few years, steering wheel looks plain, everything look plain and cheap inside, way worse than the Sportage and the Tucson...

    Hugely disappointed.

    I just went to the Motortrend auto show and checked out all the CUV's, looking forward to checking out in person the CX5, was all good outside, looks good, great ground clearance, but all that good stuff came to a halt when I opened the door, all was flimsy plastic everywhere, seats were narrow...

    Oil Change Mechanic Questions 0W-20 (2014 CX-5)

    They suck, I'd rather have a more peppy and more powerful engine using 91 than have the compression ratio lowered, does everyone in the world think we are all cheap or what? What about summers in the southwest when it's between 85 and 113 for 6 months in a row, isn't 0w20 a bit thin? I remember...

    What's the deal with that? does lower compression ratio mean less HP for us? How come a lower compression requires lower viscosity oil?

    RP is a waste of money for a street car, a 5qt jug of Mobil 1 full synthetic oil at walmart is $25, that's where I always buy my oil and I use a KNN oil filters and I change the oil every 5,000 miles on all my cars, great protection without costing a lot of money. 5,000 mile intervals is a great...

    Oil Change Mechanic Questions 0W-20 (2014 CX-5)

    I wonder if owners manual in Asia specify 5W30, since 0W20 seems to apply only to north America. My wife's 2012 Kia Forte recommends 5W20 oil for better fuel economy, but also shows a temp chart that shows 5W30 is ok to use, What I do is use 5W20 in winter and 5W30 in summer. For the CX5, I...

    Why is 0W20 only for the US and Canada while it's 5W30 everywhere else. I live In Las Vegas and I would be more comfortable with 5W30 oil. From owners manual: Recommended Oil U.S.A. and CANADA Use SAE 0W-20 engine oil. Mazda Genuine Oil is used in your Mazda vehicle. Mazda Genuine 0W-20 Oil is...
