50,000 on mine and it is still the same. Maybe I'll take out the gtech at some point and retest to see if it's still 7.5 seconds to 60.
Okay thanks.
From what I gather, heat is a skyactiv engine's best friend

Well one outa' two ain't bad!Based on the lack of issues with the Skyactiv G engines, it looks like Mazda hit a home run.

Are you saying the 2.5L G has issues I haven't heard about?
I'm aware of the issues with the diesels.
I would have thought this was pretty obvious MikeM!Not speaking for Paris, but the "G" was highlighted in read. The "D" suffix is the only other one as relates to the SA engine series, thus logically given "one out of two" that he means the diesel.
Tell that to all those UK owners whose engines are failing right and left. And BTW, if European diesel auto sales constitute 50% of the total mix, how many of those owners do you think scrupulously avoid making too many short trips?And the D doesn't really have issues, it's just that people want a Diesel to be short-trip friendly and they're just not made for commuting short distances.

The issues didn't crop up until recent emission standards kicked in causing things to get overly complicated. I'm all for a cleaner environment but it's going to be hard for automakers to meet goals if the use-case for the vehicles don't match consumer expectation.
ours has some signs of carbon buildup with 50k miles on the odometer.
if you do not rev the car hard at least once a month and do regular highway driving the buildup will occur.
Should probably update the thread with the news that your "signs of carbon buildup" went away with an oil change during which you way overfilled the engine. (hand)
By now we have many CX-5 owners w/Skyactiv engines at over 30K miles. Any issues related to CEL / carbon build up?

Bump thread.
Anyone with 30k plus miles report any effects due to DI carbon buildup?
MY 2007 DI CX7 was running like new when I sold it at ~ 80,000 miles and now Mazda claims they have solved the issue with later engines. Ed
Anything new here?
