    2013~2016 CX-5 Strut and Shock replacement

    Just completed the rear strut and front shock install. Everything fit good and was easy. All that's left to do is get an alignment. I've only driven around the block but I noticed less body roll and bouncing

    2013~2016 CX-5 Strut and Shock replacement

    Thanks for all the help ruthrj. My car as about 83k miles on it and the suspension has completely deteriorated in the last thousand miles. I ordered the same parts from rockauto (had the best price) and will give it a go. For those interested, the PNs are: KYB 3440013 - rear struts (QTY 2)...

    2013~2016 CX-5 Strut and Shock replacement

    Can anyone else chime in with what struts they've used for replacements? I'm looking at replacing mine soon and am looking for a more comfortable ride. Don't really care about sporty-ness or cornering anymore haha

    SunTek vs. 3M (Front end film protection)

    I had suntek ppf-c on my bmw for 3 years then I sold the car. It was great and didn't lift, peel, or discolor in that time. Was quite costly though and I don't think I'd do it again unless I had a really expensive ($80k+) or collectors car.

    Gen 1 vs Gen 2 CX-5 damper/shocks interchangeable?

    Also interested in seeing if the OEM 2019+ CX-5 dampers/springs are compatible in a 2016. The newer CX-5's ride much nicer.

    Guide 2nd Generation CX-9: Bose subwoofer improvement

    If it’s this easy to improve the sound, why didn’t they just do it at the factory? And I thought Bose was trying to improve their name

    Just got a 2021 carbon edition $42k msrp for $37k plus tax. Covid has some dealerships wanting to make sales numbers!
