    Got rid of my CX-50 Turbo Premium (long post)

    Hey guys, it's been fun and I wanted to say that I really thought I would love the CX-50 and I just don't think it was a good fit for me. There are just some things a test drive won't be able to uncover until owning a vehicle long term and I ultimately traded the CX-50 Turbo Premium in for a...

    Anyone replace their 2022/2023 CX-9 Speakers (non-Bose)?

    Has anyone replaced their CX-9 speakers. If so, I just had a few questions: Can anyone comment on the process and if this was a simple plug and play? Which speaker brand/model did you go for? How much of an upgrade was it over the stock speakers? Did you need any adapters for the front/rear...

    Not sure if anyone has this issue but my gas pedal makes this very annoying noise when I step on it and let go at low speeds <30 mph. Observations: It can occur when stepping on the top, middle or base/sides of the gas pedal and seems to only occur during certain temperature ranges (mostly...

    How do we unlock the doors if the CX-50 battery dies?

    Hey guys, I've been thinking about this for a while but how do we open the car doors once the car battery dies? The CX-50 does not have a key built inside of the key fob and the doors do not have a key hole. I didn't see anything in the owners manual about this as well aside from how to change...

    Hey guys, It's been raining here in the east coast for the past two days and I discovered a leak above the rearview mirror area this morning. I brought the car to the dealership to take a look and they confirmed the leak with an exterior water test. They did mention that they're not entirely...

    2023 Mazda CX-50 Turbo - Short Ram Intake (SRI)

    There is a guy on YouTube that seems to have it installed already. The only thing that the SRI seems to be missing so far is the heat shield. https://corksport.com/2022-cx-50-turbo-short-ram-intake-system.html https://youtu.be/KzORyGvLkAk?t=1498 For anyone that has it installed: Do you notice...

    2023 CX-50 Turbo Premium Mirror angle position keeps resetting?

    Hi All, I've had the 2023 Mazda CX-50 Turbo Premium for about 2-3 weeks now and I've noticed that each time I switch off the ignition and then switch it back on, the angle of the mirrors seems to reset each time. It gets a little tedious having to press on the memory 1 position for the mirror...

    2013~2016 Suspension Clunk (Driver Front) after replacing suspension components

    Hey guys, I finished replacing majority of the components for my front suspension and when I was doing a test drive last night, I kept hearing clunks over uneven pavement/bumpy roads for the driver (front) side. The clunking noise is audible around <20 mph but if I go around 30-40 mph, it seems...

    Floor Jack recommendations?

    Hey Guys, I currently have a Harbor Freight Daytona 3-ton floor jack (maximum lift height: 20 inches) but I feel as if I have outgrown it as the height clearance is not enough for most of the work that needs to be done. I am leaning towards a few products below and I was wondering if anyone...

    2013~2016 Part numbers for front knuckle/lower control arm + wheel speed sensor bolt/nuts?

    Hey guys, Does anyone know the part numbers for the below? I looked on the parts sites and they do not appear to be listed as an individual item which typically means they were lumped together with other items. This is for the front, not the rears. Wheel speed sensor bolt: Mines snapped in...

    Hey guys, I currently have about 96,100 miles on my CX-5 and I just had some questions about replacing suspension components for the front/rears: Which parts of the front suspension need to be replaced (dust boots/struts/coil spring etc.) if I were to replace the parts only? Has anyone...

    2013~2016 Broken Driver (Rear) Strut/Shock Absorber

    Hi All, It's that time a year again when something breaks in my car (approximately 86k miles) and I need to replace it. When I was driving, I noticed a clunking/thumping noise when rolling over bumps/uneven pavement. At first, I thought it was something in my trunk causing this noise but after...

    2013~2016 Broken CX-5 Stabilizer Link

    Hi All, Replaced my brakes for all (4) wheels today and then noticed something that seemed odd. Upon closer inspection, it looks like my "stabilizer bar" is broken for the Passenger (Rear). That would probably explain some of the vibrations/tracking to the left on the road and possible clunks...

    2013~2016 Radiator Fan Chirping

    Hi All, I've stumbled upon a strange noise in my vehicle the past 1-2 months and I think it may be related to the radiator fan but I'm not entirely sure. Here's what I know: 1/17/21: The vehicle is off and the belt tensioner/everything else is no longer moving but the radiator fan still runs...

    Anyone else have this issue? Sometimes the rear wiper wipes fine but then gets stuck in a certain position. Seems to be more common this year than the past few years I've owned this car.

    What's your emergency set-up/Toolkit?

    Since Winter is coming up, I was wondering what everyone kept in their car in case they run into any problems? For me, it's: Spray Bottle with soap inside. If I ever run into a flat or if I ever need to remove a nail from my tire, I can use soap to spray it onto the tread of the tire to find...
