problems

Hi - first post here: Researching a car purchase and have just decided on the AWD CX-5 over the RAV4, Forester, Outback, CRV. In my area (Lake Tahoe, CA) and price range (<$16K), I can get an AWD 2014/5/6 CX-5 with < 65K miles. Just wondering what major repairs tend to be required at about...

Hello, In June I bought a 2018 CX5 GT and have very unimpressed with the infotainment system. :-( I have several issues that completely bug me (why satellite radio cuts names off after 14 characters or so and no album artwork) but that's a complaint for another time. My issue is that that...

I've only had my brand new 2018 CX-5 for a week, and now the driver's seat is already wrinkling and getting pumpy. Anyone else having same issue soon after about a week? Thank you.

hello everyone, I just bought a brand new mazda cx5 2016 s grand touring 2wd in mexico, I will have it with me on Friday. I am very concerned about possible issues with the automatic transmission, I've been reading some complaints with it regarding some delay while engaging the gears and stuff...

Ok so I just got my map 2 weeks ago. Haven't driven it much due to bad motor mounts. Replaced top passenger and rear mount. Also replaced plugs and MAF My problem is when the car is under boost, when it winds up good, the motor jumps like it's gonna fly out of the hood. What could it be. Only...

For starters I have little car knowledge. I know how to check the oil, change a tire, a few other very basic things nothing else. I have some major problems with my msp and it's really taking away from the driving experience. Every morning when I start my car white smoke billows out my...

The weirdest thing happened to me yesterday. My car was working fine, perfectly. I just had the timing belt, water pump, alternator belt, and spark plugs changed like 3-4 weeks ago. Then all of a sudden the idle went crazy, going up and down. When i hit the gas it just it stalled and sounded...

Hey everyone, looking around to see if anyone has had similar issues with their Mazda3. I have a 2013 Mazda3 i Touring AT with less than 2000 miles on it. I have noticed that the transmission slips. For example, when I back out of a parking spot and put it into drive, it will often rev like...

Hey guys/gals, I just purchased my first Mazda a couple days ago and fell in love with it. I got a 3yr or 50k mile warranty on it, so I couldn't pass it up. I love the car. It is extremely fun to drive and it has quite a bit of pep for a stock 4 cylinder, however I have noticed a couple of the...

I have had a few issues with my CX-5, but nothing big like some have had. It seems that my expectations were not being met for fixing these issues by the local dealership. I contacted Mazda and we agreed on another (Per Mazda) dealership that was "the best in your state". I drove the 120...

I bought myself a '94 MX-3 with a previous KLZE swap two weeks ago. Nothing was wrong with it when I test drove/bought it, except a reeaaally high idle (2100-2300rpm) which the previous owners said was due to chipping the engine, and a real rich running problem, one so bad I got a headache...

My 2012 MX5 Kuro has a problem consistently connecting to my iPhone 4S. I'm pretty sure it's not the phone that's causing the problem. Sometimes it works and connects straightaway sometimes not at all. When it doesn't the phone button on the steering wheel seems to stop working so I can't even...

Hi all, I just registered as I'm hoping to buy a Mazdaspeed3 in the near future. I'm looking at getting a used 2009 model and could really use some advice on what to look for when checking out the car. Are there problem areas or signs of abuse that I should look out for while I'm test driving...
