    2025 CX-5 Rear CV Axle Play

    By wag

    Hey guys, I need your advice. I have a 2025 Mazda CX-5 with 13k miles. I noticed some play where the CV axles connect to the rear differential on both driver and passenger side. I can move the axle shaft vertically (up and down) and longitudinally (forward and backward, in the direction of vehicle travel). Is it normal behavior? (Please see the attached video).

    2016 CX5 Grand Touring Vapor Canister Replacement-Think I'm getting ripped off

    By jason_510

    I purchased this vehicle used a few months ago from a friends older mother. It only has 38,000 miles. It immediately showed a "check gas cap" reminder on the dash above the fuel gauge then eventually through a P0457 code. The shop, not a dealership, diagnosed the issue after using a smoke test, that the vapor canister showed a slight leak. They said they couldn't locate the part and said I can buy it and bring it in myself. I found the part from a Mazda dealership and had it shipped to me... Read more

    2026 CX-50 or CX-5?

    By M20105

    Hey Everyone - I am in the market for a new car and debating between the 2026 CX-5 and CX-50. I’m leaning towards the CX-50 given the 256HP vs the CX-5’s 187HP. While I like the new tech on the CX-5, I think Mazda veered too far in their vision of hands free and big screens. Oh and I’m keeping my Mazda5! Will stay in the family as long as it runs.

    CX-5 P0012 Error…Common Issue?

    By ChrisCX5&5

    The other day the engine light came on with P0012 code. Our 2016 CX-5 is Auto Trans Touring Package. We've always had the Mazda dealer do the oil changes with full synthetic never went more than 7K miles between changes and never had any issues with the car before this. I'm trying to understand if this is a common issue with the 2016 CX5's; were at 118K miles now. If this has happened to other owners I would be interested in knowing what needed to be replaced. Timing Belt? Cam? I'm... Read more

    New CX-5 Carbon Edition owner

    By teddymac

    Hello, after many years messing with/modifying a manual trans Honda CR-V, and many more years messing with and modifying a manual trans Audi A4, I was looking for a new/reliable car. I had so much trouble finding anything manual/awd, I switched to looking for anything with a real automatic (non-CVT). I completely bypassed mazda, assuming that the offerings were CVT, slow and boring. Eventually I did a little research, and realized it was quite the opposite! These cars are actually pretty...
