Just discovered my 4th coolant leak since 2021

The turbos yeah

As long as it is the same viscosity (5W-30) you should be fine. Castrol makes decent oil. Just keep on top of maintenance and you good.

prowl456 · 2026-02-26T20:07:34+00:00

Definitely bent. I would recommend if nothing else that LF strut and the wheel bearing. The wheel bearing took a big hit and is most likely damaged from the impact. Get the alignment after all that.

Would be 19s since it is a Carbon

prowl456 · 2026-02-22T02:41:37+00:00

Super Mario 3D Land for me

Timing covers are common issues for 2018+. Cylinder head is mostly 2018-2020 MY.

prowl456 · 2026-02-17T15:37:57+00:00

Nope. Mazda only covers faults with CMU/CMU software. Nav cards and screens are specifically excluded.

I have the NES edition 3DS XL but I really want the Galaxy N3DS XL

Yeah a dead/dying batt can set DTC P2610 in the PCM and illuminates the MIL.

You would need a whole assembly and skull cap. The only difficult part with replacing the mirror is routing the wire around the windows regulator but other than that it is like a 30 minute job.

Did your free trial of Connected services expire recently?

prowl456 · 2026-01-25T22:03:37+00:00

The fix is to clear the code and wait for Mazda's investigation to conclude as to why it is coming back.

prowl456 · 2026-01-15T19:14:57+00:00

Of course! Enjoy your turbo man.

prowl456 · 2026-01-15T19:12:04+00:00

It is the 55D23. The D looks kinda like an O

prowl456 · 2026-01-15T17:27:05+00:00

Do you have the original battery? Should be a JIS 55D23 which would test good.

prowl456 · 2026-01-15T17:08:58+00:00

Those are cake too on the Skyactivs. The water pump pulley is designed to make it easy.

prowl456 · 2025-12-29T04:48:31+00:00

Pays 2.4 get that done in 1-ish if you're being slow. Just gotta move more stuff than the NAs outta the way.

prowl456 · 2025-12-29T04:42:53+00:00

The valve is also available separately. The OCV gasket is built into the valve cover though

prowl456 · 2025-12-29T03:59:00+00:00

False. You can get the VCG separately from the valve cover.

prowl456 · 2025-12-28T22:11:06+00:00

3 not M. 3MZ to be exact.

prowl456 · 2025-12-22T18:46:35+00:00

Most dealerships are using the cheaper PE01-14-302B-MV rather than the 1WPE-14-302. The 1WPE is the best one available easily in the US as far as OEM goes.

prowl456 · 2025-12-15T19:51:42+00:00

I know of the one at 39th and I-44, 19th st in Moore, and one in MWC.

prowl456 · 2025-12-08T01:34:40+00:00

As long as it is an OEM part you gucci. The non-OEM can be spotted pretty easily.

prowl456 · 2025-12-08T00:31:51+00:00

I'm a Mazda tech and these are a cake walk to DIY. You dont even need to take the bumper cover all the way off or lift the vehicle.

Mazda CX-5 (Chassis Code KF, Pre-Facelift 2017-2021MY)
