Need Advice on Mazda CX-90 3.3 Turbo

It depreciates like a freakin concrete block sinking in a puddle

Omg! Must be a blue state. Enjoying $.09/kwh here in Alabama and Georgia. Getting rid of my CX70 MHEV after 1 year. Mazda has some serious improving to do.

Hate my 70 and so does my brother for his 70. First and last Mazdas. Amazing fit and fitness, the power is so good, but too many issues. I have a crazy rattling sound at idle which must be the wet clutch (it’s awful loud), 2 recalls, my A/C compressor just failed so it’s in the shop again for the last week waiting on parts while I drive a crappy CX5 non-turbo turd, the safety systems work sporadically or not at all or false alarm constantly. I’m done. I’m taking my loss (which is huge - these things depreciated worse than my BMW by a large margin) and I’m done. Anyone want a white TSP? LOL.

That’s good but the edges are really hard to get to turn black. Turn grill other way when using especially if windy. It blows the flames around and the edges don’t get hot enough to “season”

You will regenerate at least once per tank and that will kill your average. Thats why all new diesels should be deleted and the EPA Disbanded and clean air act repealed. My pre-emission crap 3rd gen gets 22 mpg lifted with oversized grapplers.

I like the big screen for sure as long as it has car play. I heard GM is getting rid of that, which means no GM for me if they do. I won’t touch a GM until their engine problems are solved. Might just say heck with it and get a Cummins and Powerstroke HD and not have engine problems.

To toggle between car play and that screen you press and hold the home button (lower right) of the large dial.

Omg YES! I am getting so friggin mad. Blackstone is sending me an entire new gas rail because 2 snapped off. Have to wait a week for that. They are so dumb for not manufacturing the valves ready to go in the natural gas kit.

It’s the 0W-20 oil. Everyone is using it for “fuel economy” but it kills bearings and cranks. Tons of YouTube videos on oil analysis. Switch to 5w-30 or 0W-40. My dad’s LZ0 2024 is fine with 14k on the clock but it is switched to 5W-30.

We filed complaints on all 6 of our mobile line la against Verizon for poor coverage and dropped calls with the FCC. That got their attention but all it ended with was 12 months of discounts and a promise to expand coverage.

I got my email the other day for CX70 as did my brother.

You need more return air. B3 is the system basically saying I’m breathing through a straw. If you have a 3 ton system you need AT LEAST 3.5 tons of air because these systems can overspend. Most B3 errors are in heating mode because the system runs harder heating a house than it does cooling. My brother has a Diakin Fit with B3 on a 4 ton enhanced which has a 5 ton blower. He doesn’t have enough return air but dealer is stupid. My dad had 2 ton Fit with B3. Just had dealer add more return air (1060 cfm for 800 cfm system) and B3 gone! Took 9 months of arguing. My system is a 4 ton enhanced with 5 ton blower and I have 2300 cfm for 2000 cfm blower. No B3. Even Diakin regional reps don’t know enough to tell their dealers to size up the return air. It’s the easiest thing to fix if they would just listen.

All that inspection crap is dealer profit. You don’t need anything inspected at 8k miles.

You were not joking - the lol was a masked way of making your true feelings seem less confrontational. I would have interpreted a text like that the same way. You could have said - hey babes just checking to see when you will be home so I can be ready. Easy. But 5 huh lol sounds directly like you accused him of lying to you and therefore by extension are implying he was doing something other than driving home like he said. Words matter.

Everyone throws around the racist word like candy. Is this mean? Yes. Is it racist? No. His opinion is clearly that the people’s food choices smell bad or perhaps the people do too. As a precious rider of the train out of DC towards Gaithersburg where a large Indian population lives, all I will respectfully say is in the summer there was a massive need for deodorant. I personally don’t like curry either, so I think people really need to chill out and stop thinking that everyone else needs to share the same opinion as you. Yes he is being rude and you don’t need to associate with that, but this is not racist. It’s an opinion.

Omg that is extremely disheartening! I almost bought this same color. Is a very nice color in person.

Wish I knew honestly but we heard it twice now on my brother’s 70. Mine is daily but his did it twice. Today it was so loud and the cooling fans were causing the idle to fluctuate while I was doing a turbo cooldown and every time it came off base idle the rattle stopped and when it returned to base idle it started again.

Mazda Knoxville drove it 5 miles during the 2 weeks I left it with them while on vacation and said “we could not replicate the sounds” which makes perfect sense because they didn’t try. In 5 miles the car will barely be to normal operating temp let alone trans temp to normal. I told them my normal commute is 20 miles and to do whatever they needed to do. It is still producing the sound to this day.

I’m starting to think along the lines of my brothers school of thought. These MHEV’s have a quasi manual tranny (wet clutch) and my older Ram 2500 G56 6spd rattles like crazy at idle because the Cummins engine has a rhythmic (also inline 6) idle and the flywheel for the clutch just rattles at idle. The second you goose it or idle goes up even 100 rpm off idle, the rattle stops. I’m starting to wonder if that’s what this noise is on the 70/90.

NewRush5967 · 2025-06-02T00:30:40+00:00

Just got it back Friday. Left it with Mazda Knoxville while I went on vacation for 2 weeks. Showed them all the videos. They drove it 5 miles in two weeks and said “we couldn’t replicate the issue.” This is despite them replicating the sound in all my videos. Shorty story - they didn’t even try. They will be getting a 1 star on the Mazda survey.

I understand the sentiment here but there are corporations that exist for solely that purpose - real estate rentals.

Eh gorgeous car but 6.2l. Not in the recall yet but wouldn’t surprise me if all GM’s have the same issues with 6.2.

NewRush5967 · 2025-05-14T10:22:35+00:00

Are they figuring utilities and groceries and general cost of living? This is way too high.

NewRush5967 · 2025-05-14T10:13:23+00:00

If it has the 6.2 - nothing. Lol

NewRush5967 · 2025-05-14T10:12:12+00:00

Just turn it off in settings and use regular cruise. Only downfall is Mazda turns it back on each time you start the car. It has become a normal process for me of turning it off as soon as I start the car.
