HVAC refrigerant changed after 2016, from R134A to R1234yf. If the condenser coil size did not change with the refrigerant, then some regulation issues is expected.

Oil pan heater helps quite a bit. I wake up to -30c in Northern Alberta often. Warms up super fast.

excellent thanks from Texas. I am on my 3rd 2014, 17, 23 all have been great

Thanks for this video, happens to my 2024 mazda its lot clear now 😅

This is sick

Do you change it transmission oil?

OEM coolant is cheap, I'd just use it. I believe it's only available in 50/50 prediluted, but it's something you'll likely only do twice over the life of the car, so not worth going cheap imo

Great review. I will say I don’t have an issue with my TuxMat interfering with my shoes. Maybe because I have smaller feet (7.5-8 US). My biggest issue is the clutch pedal feels softer/more dampened since you’re depressing it against the mat. I’m thinking of making a cut out but not sure yet.

18:25 if the anti glare layer is gone foggy You can remove the anti glare layer with a normal baby wipe and a piece of kitchen towel I did it for my cx-5 the other day, It worked a treat and no more foggy screen on sunny days

Thank you for your guidance, NOT a simple battery replacement (IMHO). We bought our 2021 CX-30 used, and only now realize we only have a valet key in one of our key fobs, oh well. Yea, a smaller screw driver made the job easier. Nonetheless, thanks again!😅

thanks

Still not working. Thank you. Great advice. I’m just going to take it to the dealership. It’s constantly loosing connectivity to my phone.

I have the same sound, what is it?

Very nice setup.. over engineered ofc haha but so cool how everything is done. The highest compression ratio engine available at 14.0. The only other engine with this measurement is the Ferrari 458 Italia I believe.. I’ve also noticed Mazda likes to tune their exhaust to sound “cooler” even for base engines/4 cylinders. While it’s not a V6 or V8, it’s little details like these that you can appreciate. My neighbor has a mid-range, stock 3 with the base engine. I can hear it start up in the morning which is always pretty cool.. it’s not trying to be something it’s not, it just has little notes of Mazda DNA. The sound reminds me very much of how BMW made their 335i exhaust sound upon start up.

Feels better now to know that it's normal, I have a 2023 Mazda 3 (2.0L) with only 4400 miles, I was wondering if the sound the engine made at a red light was normal the other day, some strange rattle I haven't previously noticed.

Thank you so much for this video, 1st madza and had no idea why my car was making that noise

It just doesn't sound good even if it's technically normal to sound like that.

Shutter / rocking in parking lots? Shutter when accelerating? Chirp when shifting from 3rd to 4th gear?

My 2018 had that same ticking sound. It drove me crazy, even though 3 different Mazda dealers said it's normal. I told them if it was ticking when I bought it I would have returned it. Besides that I absolutely loved my 2018 GT, before she was taking to heaven in a rear colission. Love those Pizza wheels.

would you recommend CX 50 2024?

Thank you very much!

Awesome job! What lap time tracker do you use?

Please advise how to fix it

6 years and only around 75000 miles. Not much at all.

Hm.. i have also non-turbo 2019 top spec on 70k km and seems like it also has this clicking sound at cold start..appearing at the right side of the motor if you are facing the engine. So most probably it's the hydraulic valve lifters and it sounds expensive :)

Is the cx 9 just as good?

Is your engine cover vibrating too guys? Mine does, when warm obviously. 92k km, came back from the service without any issues found. New sparkplugs.

Beim untertourigem beschleunigen brummt meiner komisch unter last...

I-Stop and cylinder deactivation were dropped by Mazda for the 2024 and some 2023 models.

This is a touch screen the Mazda information I was looking for is for Mazda 2021 cx5 touring

It would help to put the car year and model the description is not useful

Great review Mark

I sat in a CX5 today at a dealership. Not a good car for tall guys! My head was up against the roof. Also sat in the CX30, which felt much better for tall men, but then the back seats are said to have very little leg space.

Whats the mileage

Found your vid because I just got 2018 soul red touring with premium package with 60k miles. Love it, feels like a sports car disguised as a truck. I don’t plan on going off roading anytime soon but everything feels quality built.

Two days ago I turned off my CX5 and had the fob with a strong battery in the front console. It locked itself as soon as I closed my door and before I could open the back door to get my newborn out. I had to break the window. Electronic key fobs are infuriating - they fail and are expensive to replace. I never had a physical ignition key lock my doors on me and trap my baby inside.

Thank u! I just looked at a 2017 Mazda 3 sport for my son. 148 k all highway miles I heard the pinging and I thought it was the chain

I don't have all that on my CX5. Meaning, no key lock cylinders on any door 😭

You are a life saver. This was the most difficult fob I have had to open in my many years of having a car.

This is brilliant! Thank you so much - you've explained perfectly.

Thank you. You saved me a 2 hr. drive to Mazda!! 👏🤩

Huuuuuuge help on the GDI Pump noise, you are a lifesaver my dude!

That many rock chips on a 6 year old car? wtf man? :)

What is this

I literally thought it was a valve tick when I bought my 2018 Sig until I had the dealer start another new car and it made the same sound.

I do this to my cars but I induce the whole can in slowly till it smoking and then let it rest 20-30 mins then start it up and let it run till it smooths out, then I drive it like i stole it. A tiny amount of seafoam is only gonna scratch the surface of all that carbon buildup and it’ll be gunked up again before you know it.

Mazda still sells new vehicles without navigation SD card. That is extra charge, and so are the updates. What a slap in the face... I also hate Daylight Running Lights. Why ? They are not mandatory in the USA. Don't install them by default. Does anyone know how to disable them?

mileage information would have been very useful

Thanks for extensive review. I have the 2020 CX-5 Signature. Same color as yours. I love it. The interior leather I keep up with Saddle Soap. My seats are not showing any cracking or wrinkling like yours. I use premium fuel in mine because it has the turbo. Still have original battery. I put three coats of wax on the exterior every summer.

Why can't they keep well enough alone? Why is everything overengineered? For 1 extra mile of fuel economy?
