    Very disapointing fuel economy from recent roadtrip...

    I did lose 1-2 mpg when they stopped carrying ethanol free gas. I also lost another 1-2 mpg when I put on heavier wheels and tires.

    Another Case of Falsifying Fuel Economy Estimates

    I personally have never had a problem reaching or exceeding EPA estimates on any car I've owned. My wife get's the EPA combined mileage figure on her 2012 Nissan Rogue which is only 24 mpg.

    High Mileage CX-5s - report in

    86k miles on my 2013 sport with manual. No major problems at all and only a couple minor ones. I have a tpms light on, but that came on after I had aftermarket springs and wheels put on. It's most likely just a bad connection, but I've never tried to fix it. I have the driver side mirror...

    Dealer wants to buy back my '13 cx-5 and put me into a '16.5...Thoughts?

    As has been stated, they aren't in desperate need of your used Mazda. Dealerships buy from auction houses all the time and usually pay less than what they pay for trade-in's on the same car. As far as whether they are offering you a good deal; without the actual miles, condition etc. of your...

    Gas Guage

    I can come up with a ton of hypothetical scenarios as well, but in the 100's of thousands of miles I've driven in cars ranging from the '60's to today, I've never had a car mess up because of too much fuel in the tank. As for your 50% chance; did you also know there is a 81% chance that all...

    Gas Guage

    I think you're more likely to be killed from the initial 60 mph hit compared to the hazard of a couple gallons of fuel in the filler neck. I top off my tank and have for 50-60k miles in the CX-5 and have had no problem at all with it damaging anything. I top off since all gas stations and...

    Gas Guage

    Do you always fill it to the top, or do you also just let the pump shut off on it's own and call it good? It puts in between 13-13.5 gallons when I fill it from 0 miles to empty before the pump shuts off on it's own. After which I can put in another 3-3.5 gallons before it's to the filler cap...

    Anyone else having trouble unlocking their CX-5 with the fob?

    The fobs must be different between trim levels. My '13 Sport has separate lock and unlock buttons. Press once to unlock the drivers door, twice in quick succession to unlock all the doors. Once on the lock button to lock all the doors, twice to sound the horn. Just reread what you said and...

    Anyone else having trouble unlocking their CX-5 with the fob?

    change the battery like Mike suggested. Mine started acting up like that so I went to the spare and after a few weeks, started doing the same thing. After putting in a new battery, both fobs worked perfectly.

    Need help with new tires for CX-5 (Complete car newb).

    Laramie gets worse weather on average than it is here in southwest Wyoming, but you should still be fine on a good set of all season tires. If you have the money or are not used to winter driving, I'd suggest winter tires.
