    power folding mirrors

    Dealer just replaced mine because of a noise. Never had any issues and sure the system was working fine but since the cars will be out of warranty soon the service advisor told be they would replace both sides under warranty. No noise now.

    Panoramic roof who wants it as an option?

    Agreed. Technology has improved and I don't see as many issues as I saw in the past with sunroofs and pano roofs. Same goes for cabrios, in the past cabrios only had two happy days: day of delivery and day of sale. Now it is not completely true, they are quiet, structurally solid and reliable...

    2017~2024 Thumping sound on turning under load for front wheels

    I've been complaining about this since the second service at the dealer and they say they can't replicate the sound. I even sent them a video of the noise and they said nothing is wrong with the car. It is exactly as you say, while turning with some load and exterior wheel, most times it is on...

    Anyone found an OBD2 phone app that will read transmission fluid temp?

    I already paid for the DashCommand app. Don't feel like paying for another app. What a shame. Also, if I leave the OBD tool connected the car suffers from some hiccups from time to time, I thought it wasn't related so I stopped using the OBD reader for more than a month. Today I decided to use...

    Performance ater 3rd service - horrible.

    Unless they completely added a wrong oil, very difficult these days, I highly doubt this is oil related. Ask them to run diagnostics on the vehicle. A change in timing advance (mandated by the ECU) can lead to different engine noise and performance issues.

    Cx-5 2017 ac

    Most new cars do that to keep average consumer worry free. Our CX-5 does not have a temp gauge so I use OBDII from time to time to check the temp because I'm weird like that. Back to the original question before all this got out of hand: The AC on my CX-5 might not be freezing cold in some...

    Video Cleaning Intake valves CX 5 Skyactiv Gasoline engine

    I did not see the entire video but he removed the wheel so my best guess is that he calculated the top end dead point for each cylinder and that means the valves are fully closed, having said this the chance of debris and liquid falling inside the cylinder is minimal. Valves are completely shut.

    Video Cleaning Intake valves CX 5 Skyactiv Gasoline engine

    My car spends so much time in heavy traffic that my intake system is probably the same or worse. Some days I won't even see 30kph for an hour or so.

    Look what Ive got.....

    Not only mechanically but the interiors too. Plain rude. I rent a lot from Hertz and each time I return the minivan free from garbage, full of fuel and fluids and a note to the service advisor if something must be fixed or checked before the next costumer.

    Look what Ive got.....

    It is a shame that rental cars get so little care and then they pretend to sell them under the impression that they get serviced regularly.

    Is the 2018 CX-5 engine a Ford?

    Someone trying to make you feel bad about your new Mazda. People love talking down to others when it comes about personal choices. No Ford BS in these CX-5.
