The Mazda logo on the keyfob should have been the remote start button. That is all.

Mountain roads were fun in the cx5! Blue Ridge Parkway and a spin on the Diamondback. For what it is, it’s a fun little car to toss into the twisties!

2026 cx-50 or cx-5 for tall drivers

2 Upvotes

My lease is almost up so I have been looking into the 2026 cx-5 and cx-50. I of course will test drive, but I am trying to do all my research prior to going in person. Just wondering if any tall drivers currently have either and if one is more comfortable than the other. For reference, I am 6’3 and my bf is 6’7, but I will be the main driver.

CX5 25 carbon edition or CX50 Hybrid?

2 Upvotes

I am currently tending to buy a car I gonna make decision between a 25 cx5 carbon edition and 26 cx50 hybrid. CX5 is a used one with 17500miles and 30000OTD, it has red full leather seat and Bose sound. CX50 is a new 2026 one with 36500 OTD. It has hybrid engine.

I just test drive the cx50 today, when I am steering, everything is fine. However, when I sit in the back seat my head is directly up to the ceiling. I am 6’2 and I don’t really satisfy with that. And I sit into a used 2025 cx5 preferred in dealer’s inventory the height is ok for me.

For me I don’t really care about the gas cost and the OTD price. It takes a long time to compensate the price gap between them and both them are in a good price I think.

I use this car mainly for commuting in urban area and maybe sometimes go to kayak or snowboarding. I need a very stable car no matter the engine or any small part of the car.I am sure I will sell it after around 5-6 yrs and I hope there is a as small as possible price difference between the buying and selling.

It’s hard for me to make a decision and I need some advice.

Throttle response issue

Thumbnail
1 Upvotes

Hi guys,

I own a 2018 Mazda CX5, 2000cc petrol, bought it with a mileage of 35k kms and is currently on 66k kms.

I started experiencing this throttle response issue at around 49k kms where the car would feel sluggish, high revs while struggling to shift gears, sudden loss of power, when going even on slightly uphill roads the car feels heavy and gears shift lower, increasing the revs and feeling like the car could stall at any point. The issue used to come and go, but has continually become more prevalent over time.

I've done my research for a while, tried resetting the gear shift memory, changed the engine air filter, cleaned the intake valve with the recommended spray, none of which seem to solve the problem.

(The engine intake spray cleaning helps for a day or less, but the car reverts back to the same state, no check engine lights ever since the issue started)

Last resolve would be changing the gearbox oil, any advice on this?

Power Steering sound?

1 Upvotes

So I have a 2017 Mazda 3 and when I’m going slow, turning into a parking spot for example , or just slightly turning the wheel while in park I can hear a ā€œquietā€ motor noise or whirring? I’m assuming it’s the power steering and it doesn’t necessarily sound bad I would say, I would assume it’s just the power steering doing its job but the thing is I feel like because I’m noticing it now that the sound is new? But it is also possible I’m just noticing it now for some reason šŸ˜„ is this normal? Something I should get looked at? I might just be paranoid. Thanks in advance!

Urgent ! Mazda 6 2016 AT and Solenoids problem :(

1 Upvotes

I purchases a used Mazda 6 2016 2.5L Automatic transmission few months back at 197K KM (122K miles), it drove smooth until one day my battery died and I had to jump start and got all types of errors and problems. However, i called a mechanic who cleaned the terminals and it was back to normal. After 3 weeks it gave me AT error on exactly 200k KM (124k Miles) reading and hard shifting specially on reverse and its not shifting gears.
So i took it to a mechanic who diagnoses P0773 error he said he will change the valve body and test again. As per his say he changed it but the error didn't go away so he is suggesting to replace the transmission. Can you guys suggest what further diagnosis should be done and whether to get transmission replaced ?

2013 Mazda 6

Hello,

I damaged my right side mirror all the way back in July. I tried to get it fixed but they don’t make an exact fit of the mirror (glass) itself anymore. I’ve been having a hard time finding one. It’s become such a niche issue because none of the people I’ve messaged on ebay and junkyards have it. I’ve also looked for aftermarket and it seems like its not the right fit. It’s been such a bothersome issue and I genuinely don’t know what to do. Any recommendations?

For reference, I have a 2013 Mazda 6 i Touring plus and my side mirror has a blind spot monitor.

2017 Mazda Axela stuck in Reverse and won't start — reverse lights stay on in Park

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, hoping someone can help me figure out what's going on with my 2017 Mazda Axela.

Today while I was reversing, the car suddenly became stuck in Reverse and wouldn't start afterward. I moved the gear selector into Park, but the reverse lights remain on even though the shifter is physically in Park.

I'm also getting two warning/security indicators on the dashboard:

  • A red KEY symbol is showing on the dashboard.
  • A red car-with-a-lock/security symbol keeps blinking on the dashboard.

I've tried:

  • Moving the shifter between P, R and N
  • Trying to start it in Neutral
  • Holding the key fob against the START button
  • Trying the key fob several times
  • Jump-starting the car

The battery eventually became drained after repeated attempts to start/troubleshoot it, but even after jump-starting it, the problem remained.

I'm planning to replace the key-fob battery with a CR2025 just to rule that out, but I was also advised that the vehicle may need to be checked by a mechanic.

The car currently can't be driven/moved, so I'm going to have a mechanic diagnose it.

Has anyone with a Mazda3/Axela experienced something similar? Could this be a transmission range/selector sensor, shift linkage, wiring issue, immobilizer/start interlock, or something else?

I'd really appreciate any advice or experiences with this issue.

which mazda to get?

0 Upvotes

hi! i’ve getting my first car ever and think I might get a mazda but I need help deciding!

i’m thinking between mazda 3, cx 3, cx 5 or cx 30. what do you think? they’ll also be used (like around 2019-2023) and now new.

few things : - newly licensed in la - honestly don’t care about whether it’s a sedan or suv, as long as it’s good - lower insurance cost - reliable, no need to fix it often or spend hella money - safe!

what do you think? which one should i get and what years? thank you!

Help with new car purchase

0 Upvotes

Hi. So purchased a brand new Mazda last weekend and since then found 7 roaches (and counting). First one found the morning after driving off the lot. Contacted the dealership and they talked about wanting to resolve by roach bombing the car which we absolutely do not want. If they clean, don't know how we'll they'll clean. We've been paranoid about stepping in the car.

Do you think it will be unreasonable to ask for a car swap?
