    2017~2024 Weird feeling accelerating with CX-5 Turbo

    This is kinda a weird occurance, couple times I've experienced what can only be described as a slingshot effect. Very subtle but you feel it. It's like there a few millsecond pause then the car accelerates forward almost like it's being flung forward. Don't know if its the turbo, torque...

    2017~2024 CX-5: Trouble pairing new phone

    Picked up a new phone the other day. Samsung Galaxy A54. Un-paired the old phone and tried pairing the new one. Everything is configured properly in the phone. CX-5 recognizes the phone and attempts to pair but keeps failing. Is it a software problem with the Infotainment software and the new...

    2013~2016 Question on CX-5 Rear Diff fluid change

    Last time I had my 2016 into the dealer I wanted to get a drain and fill on the ATF and transfer case. The dealer talked me out of the ATF change this time (only 40k on odo) but went ahead with the transfer case (or so I thought). They did a rear diff change by mistake. Question - when they do...

    2017~2024 CX-5 Turbo and plugs!

    What is it about the turbo that requires the plug to be replaced at around 40,000? I just hit 40,800 and noticed the vehicle is not running like it used to. I've noticed some subtle stumbling at low and moderate speeds. Never had it before. Anyway, plugs are being replaced this coming Tuesday.

    Did a stupid thing today!

    I was out in the garage checking oil level on my 2016 Touring. I had a small flashlight sitting on the frame on the left hand side. The flashlight rolled forward (toward the engine) and fell straight down and disappeared. I assume it's sitting on the bottom shield. I got under and removed a few...

    2017~2024 Question on CX-5 Transfer case fluid

    Does the Transfer case get it's fluid from the transmission? This doesn't sound right but that's what the Mazda dealer Service writer told me. If that's true then according to them the Transfer case fluid is lifetime.

    Fighting with Mazda dealer over tranny drain/fill

    Wanted a simple transmission drain and fill. Dealer said Mazda recommends against it. Told him I don't care what Mazda recommends I would like to have it done for piece of mind. Told me he has to go check with his superiors to see if they even do it. WTH. My 2016 has been out of powertrain...

    2017~2024 CX-5: Why doesn't NAV mute the radio when it speaks directions?

    Don't use OEM Nav much but last night I had to occasion to. Found it annoying that the NAV voice speaks over the radio instead of muting the music. Difficult to follow directions with the music comming out of all the speakers except the drivers side speaker. Didn't want to turn the volume down...

    2017~2024 CX-5: All of a sudden all favorites and phone contacts gone!

    Weird. Nothing unusual happened, just started the car and they were gone. Sirius/XM was on channel 1 so I thought we just lost the regular signal and it would resume later. Next day still on channel 1 so I did the channel select and all channel were available and at that point realized all the...

    2017~2024 Ford dropping AM from 2024 model, will Mazda follow?

    Most emergency broadcasts come over AM. A lot of people listen to talk radio on AM. Seems kinda stupid. Gotta wonder who makes these decisions. https://12ft.io/proxy?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.breitbart.com%2Ftech%2F2023%2F04%2F03%2Fford-to-discontinue-am-radios-in-most-new-vehicles-starting-in-2024%2F

    What would happen if you press Start/Stop while driving?

    How would you stop the engine if you had one of those runaway car situations like the brakes completely fail or the Audi gas pedal to the floor. Would the electric parking brake engage while you were moving? Could you turn the engine off?

    2017~2024 For those fretting about matching Machine Gray (CX-5)

    Had a local run-of-the-mill body shop repaint the rear passenger door on our 19 GTR. My wife had a little mishap with a underground parking garage pillar. They had to paint the rear passenger door and blend in the front passenger door and the rear quarter panel. They matched the paint perfectly...

    2017~2024 CX-5 Dealer installed cabin air filter

    Had my 16 Touring in to the dealer this morning for an oil change and tire rotation. They said my CAF needed replacing and they would do it for $54.79. Wonder how many people say - go ahead and replace it.
