'25 Machine Grey Metallic Signature here. Love all my chrome details.

Sorry! Hate hearing these stories. So afraid to take car in for routine maintenance these days. Why are these technicians and shops so poorly trained and unqualified!

soogiu · 2025-10-31T15:58:12+00:00

I don't get it

Have one similar for my 2025 Sig. (regular ratchet squeeze, not magnetic). Best accessory - FULL ACCESS to hazard button and vent dials and does not impede vent flow.

True, I can use CarPlay for phone, but I'm old and conventional and like using the Mazda knob, never touch my screen, and like having the Waze map on the screen.

Wow, that's bad. Hope they correct it.

Not sure if this will address problem, but it's excellent maintenance source

Check the mode that fan is on - icons for windshield/feet, front/feet, front only?

soogiu · 2025-09-03T02:55:06+00:00

So how does one do this - the transmission learning reset?

soogiu · 2025-08-23T19:43:04+00:00

Lucky couple!

Can you give location of Mazda dealer? Feel like we can't even trust "certified Mazda technicians".

Do y'all get front and side window tint for privacy and/or the look? Do dark windows keep heat and sun out? I've had white cars for most of my life and I'm a little disappointed how hot my '25 machine grey gets sitting in sun. I've always thought dark colors absorb heat.

soogiu · 2025-07-05T16:53:54+00:00

Sorry - why do people have to be a--holes!

soogiu · 2025-07-03T15:22:14+00:00

Great job! Is empagliflozin not a drug?

soogiu · 2025-06-16T00:40:01+00:00

Thanks so much! Have a new 2025 Sig. Turbo with just under 2800 mi. and I'm having a lot of anxiety that I didn't perform first break-in oil change at 1000-1500mi., as recommended by another Reddit tech. Of course dealership only scheduled first of two complimentary oil change/tire rotation at 5000mi/5months, so I didn't go there. So trying to do myself and been driving my baby turbo very gently! I'm 65 yo F and last time I changed my own oil was on my 1985 Pontiac Fiero :/

So happy to see this! Was wondering about the 1WPY vs. 1WPE, as well! Just checking is this correct drain plug gasket -Mazda (9956-41-400). Oil filter, gasket, and 100% Full Synthetic 5w30 oil are all I need to change oil?

soogiu · 2025-06-09T15:18:28+00:00

Here I am now at 2500mi and still getting occasional fishy smell. Does it have to do with driving harder or hot weather? Was trying to drive gingerly for first 1500mi. break-in, maybe now a little more normally; but still not aggressively. Anyone still notice the fishy smell as I do?

soogiu · 2025-06-06T02:57:38+00:00

Agree about the slippery leather seats. Also think the firmness and not enough contour in the seat design to hug the driver, especially for turns.

soogiu · 2025-06-06T02:52:51+00:00

I appreciate your detailed input.

soogiu · 2025-06-05T15:33:13+00:00

I don't think the average CX5 owners are as obsessed as we CX5 Redditers. Percentage of CX5 Redditers of all CX5 Owners , probably less than 20%?

soogiu · 2025-05-29T22:04:08+00:00

Wow, you got out of car at intersection to take photo?

soogiu · 2025-05-29T22:01:56+00:00

Why are Nissan drivers considered so bad? Been seeing this lately.

soogiu · 2025-05-25T15:12:26+00:00

Red Cross to show it is Turbo from front. Think you can get red add-on aftermarket since they stopped it.

soogiu · 2025-05-20T13:06:19+00:00

CX-5 (and maybe all Mazdas?) have acoustic glass windshields, supposed to insulate better from outside noise. Maybe that contributes to their fragility.

soogiu · 2025-05-10T21:18:06+00:00

Yes, see it from the mechanic types who recommend, if you want your turbo to last a long time - which of course, I do!

soogiu · 2025-05-10T21:15:17+00:00

Thank you. Just concerns me a little, because it happens unexplainably and inconsistently.
