Mods: this may be better posted in r/cars. If so, please move it there. Thanks!

I did change the filter to the one in the picture. That is the PN for the turbo model.

I’ll do a yearly change. That will be roughly 5k miles.

For the rest of the car, that is years away. I’ll follow the schedule for the most part with the exception of the transmission. I feel it should get a change around 40-50k. Maybe at the same time as the spark plugs.

Do the cheat code to give back control of the light options while the car is moving.

She’s pretty. My Machine Gray '23 Turbo will be proposing soon.

I get bombarded daily with Mazda ads on YouTube. Thing is, I’m already a customer, so it’s ad spending going to waste.

Agree; generally speaking, maintenance costs on EVs are lower than ICE vehicles.

The 50 is not a replacement for the 5. Even Mazda has said so.

API SN Plus would indicate so as that is the most recent standard.

But I would recommend Pennzoil Platinum at minimum. Mobil 1 ESP is not bad oil but the testing I’ve seen indicates Pennzoil to be better. I bought the Ultra Platinum 0W-30 (because I have the turbo) in a 3-pack of 5 Qt jugs and the per qt cost comes out to $5.40 USD. Not bad for one of the best oils out there.

To easily control a music playlist.

Finally, same color trim and body

As much as I would like a smaller sporty car, I find myself needing the cargo space of the CX-5 quite often. Even just for myself.

No.

In the app: Vehicle Status shows Fuel, Odometer, Doors, Trunk, Hood, Hazard Lights.

Under Service, Health Check shows Lights, Tire Pressure, TPMS as simple check marks.

It has been fixed but Hiroshima is still annoyingly overfilling the engine oil by at least 1/2 qt. I drained 5.7 from mine on my first change at 1200mi and put 5.1 back in.

One thing I like about the CX-5…clearly different design teams. Although they did greatly crank up the volume of the alarm vs prior years, at least it doesn’t start until you pass 5 mph or so.

Did you install a new battery?

The easiest way is probably to get it ceramic coated then do a weekly or bi-weekly rinseless wash. I still get out the pressure washer and do the full production when it’s warm but that’s probably done for the year here.

Maybe taking a zero off is more realistic

The only way fuel economy can go from a modified exhaust is up, but your baseline expectation should be zero.

But on the other hand, your phone is a more secure device than the key fob…

That simple, huh? $850 vs $1150 is a nice difference in price however it is a long-term decision so I know that’s not the most important factor.
