differential

Why would anyone want to stay with Mazda when rear differential is a common issue at under 100k miles, and the cost of replacement on average is $5500, never mind other accruing expenses? The response from corporate is beyond irresponsible.

Bought a 2025 CX-50 (2.5 Turbo Premium AWD) back in February. Under 5k miles on it and just had to have the rear differential / u-joint replaced. Looking around online, mine is not the only one. Posting here for others in case it helps. The issues started off a few months after getting the...

Hello, I am feeling at my wits end because I have already spent $5500 to fix this issue at the dealer and just 2 days ago the whine is back. Any advice you can provide would be greatly helpful. This is my first time posting on a forum. I have a 2013 Mazda CX-5 Touring AWD with 71k miles on...

Hi All, I think our CX5 may be suffering from the rear diff TSB, its been squeeking for a while and has just started binding up when turning corners slowly, like pulling out of a parking spot. Its hard to tell if the binding is happening in the rear diff or being transferred from the front -...

Hey Guys, My car is at 50,000 and the dealer says at this milage they suggest I get a differential fluid flush. Cost $169 What do you guys think is that just a standard suggestion, is it really neccassay? Is that a good price? What would you do? Thanks

As the title says, I am getting a grinding noise coming from the transmission area after I replaced the clutch, flywheel, rear main seal, and axle seals. It has gotten progressivily worse and isnt tied to the Engine because it varies by car speed not engine RPM. Also the noise gets worse when...

I want to buy the final drive gear that attaches to the differential. I need one to install the mFactory LSD, but since my original is unharmed it makes no sense to ruin it to install the other one. It is sometimes referred to as the ring gear.

Was on a 5 minute drive home (about a mile) from an appointment and I came to a stop to turn into my neighborhood. Once traffic passed I proceeded to turn and the transmission caught for a second, slipped, and then caught again. It made a loud grinding noise while it was slipping. I came to...
