    2013 Mazda CX5 Touring Wont Start

    In the video I have given an update on the situation. I am waiting to get a battery tester to determine if this is the culprit to the issue. I am also in a bind because I live in NYC and had parked the car in a tight parking spot and am not sure how a tow truck would go about towing the vehicle...

    2013 Mazda CX5 Touring Wont Start

    I own a 2013 Mazda CX-5 with close to 72,000 miles on it. I have tried to turn my car on, but to no avail. When I depress the brake pedal the start button lights up green so it is recognizing the key, but only turns the car to the on position where all of the electronics seem to be operating at...

    How's the CX-5 bumper absorbing bumps and scratches?

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljMEHbBxq54 This video should help you,just use a heat gun,hair dryer,or boiling water(not too much maybe a small pot used to boil eggs) and it'll be malleable so you can move it back to how it was by pressing on the inside.

    Failed Battery

    I completely agree,just go to auto zone or advance auto parts,their usually honest people,and ask them to show you the results themselves,since you dont seem to know too much about cars,which is fine,12.6 or higher is a solid battery voltage while the car is completely off,depending on how cold...

    2013 CX-5 Touring NYC Snow Storm-01/23/16

    Yesterday there was a big snow storm that hit the East pretty hard and NYC got it pretty bad,25 inches or so.I had my CX-5 parked on the street on a hill going upwards and I was worried the car was going to get buried with snow(on the OUTSIDE of the car). Today I shoveled around the car until...

    Strange Check Engine Light Issues

    I got the car with 51,700 miles on it last August and have only driven it 2,500 miles until this day.I added Techron about 1,000 miles ago and I didnt really see a difference in fuel economy or anything like that.Would it be ok if I waited until I scan my car for the codes until I put any...

    Strange Check Engine Light Issues

    I did not do anything to the plugs.The light only appears in the ON position when the engine is OFF like I said in the opening post.Once I turn the engine ON the light goes away.Im trying to get a video to explain the situation.
