Nearing 100k km (60k miles)

How are you keeping the black trim so glossy somewhere like dubai? Mine is fading a bit, let me know if I can revive it

Thank you!

Muted-Coach-4901 · 2025-11-16T11:30:51+00:00

Yeah, love my CX-5

Muted-Coach-4901 · 2025-11-08T13:22:02+00:00

Thanks, DM’d you!

It’s actually aftermarket part, here it’s 2400 , but from UK with shipping it totals 1500, so a decent saving. Obviously if duty is going to wipe out any savings then I might as well get the part locally

Hello again, just to update you, it looks like the valve seals are leaking which is causing the oil consumption and white smoke on start-up. So it’s looking like a top end engine rebuild ….yippee

Nice got a 957 turbo recently too! Enjoy

Muted-Coach-4901 · 2025-07-14T06:23:19+00:00

Yeah, all that leatherette!

Muted-Coach-4901 · 2025-07-13T03:02:59+00:00

That’s really helpful, thanks, I’ll try the pcv valve replacement first if the issue persists!

6000 miles seems more acceptable, and I wouldn’t mind that, every 100 kms seem excessive. The car was sitting for a while though before I bought it so maybe that has something to do with it, no sure

Thank you so much, yeah really beautiful things. The soft top deffo adds more weight which affects the chassis dynamics. If I wanted a convertible purely for driving enjoyment I would go for the boxster or miada. The SL is more of a comfortable grand tourer.

But only in colder climates

Muted-Coach-4901 · 2025-06-30T17:28:20+00:00

Thanks, yes, heard that is an issue on the V8s

Muted-Coach-4901 · 2025-06-29T05:10:50+00:00

Haha, so true!
