    2018 CX-5 GT Transmission Replaced - High pitched whine

    Figured it would be a good idea to document this on a forum in case others have the same issue. We bought a 2018 CX-5 GT with about 35,000kms on the clock just under 11 months ago. Right off the jump my wife told me that the car has a high pitched electronic-sounding whine on the highway. To...

    Do some Mazda dealers have a non pressurized ATF flush?

    I've been looking into getting my ATF changed. 2015 Mazda 3, 52000 mi, just purchased used. Instinctively I'm afraid of a flush, but a drain and fill isn't cheap if I don't do it myself. There's two Mazda dealers near me. One has given me several different answers but basically they can only...

    Skyactiv Transmission Fluid Analysis Thread

    I thought it made sense to put this in a separate thread from the regular oil analysis. Anyway I did my first transmission fluid change (3 drain/fill sessions a week apart) starting around 71,200 miles. During the first, I captured a sample and sent it away for analysis. And before you ask, yes...
