  • Bought a 2023 CX-5 base model in February 2026

    Mazdas247 · burrpenick · 3 Nov 2026

    Happy so far, dealer had changed the oil recently and I just completed my first on. The tech way overtightened both the drain plug and filter, and did NOT replace the drain plug washer. All good though as I have plenty of experience. I hope to have reset the service minder to 5K miles. Was VERY happy to find the drain plug inspection plate- my last Ford Focus didnt have that and the entire pan had to come off. Is there any other drive MODE options other than SPORT? Any tire recomendations... Read more

  • Your Best Defensive Driving Tips?

    Mazdas247 · dill chips · 27 Oct 2026

    Defensive driving involves a set of strategies and techniques focused on anticipating potential hazard and preventing accidents, even if other drivers are making mistakes.

    Hey gang, How many of you have thought about updating to a Dakota Digital Dash, but were disappointed to find out that they don't make one for our cars?
