    300 miles & vibration at highway speeds - wheel balance out?

    UPDATE: Took the CX-5 in to local Big O for it's first service. Had a coupon for a wheel balance for $20 so I said go ahead and do that too. VIBRATION GONE. Drives as smooth as silk now. So the wheel balance was out since I took delivery of it brand new. I swear... these dealers don't...

    Our new CX5

    I had to lemon law a new '15 CRV - what a POS it was. That CVT transmission was a joke - wouldn't engage in reverse and occasionally wouldn't even move in drive. Honda dealers refused to even look at it. Never again...

    Our new CX5

    I'm doing the full detail on my Machine Gray GS tomorrow! Clay bar, polish the whole kabang. Dealership didn't do a great job unfortunately.
