Yeah, couldn’t agree more to that as My Daily is a ‘12 Focus with the DRY dual clutch. As quirky and over the top aggravating to be in traffic as it is- its at least been consistently aggravating for the 115,000 miles I’ve owned it and managed to not get any worse.

Probably let out a press release as soon as they are arriving at the port lol.

FWIW- https://www.autoevolution.com/news/2019-mazda-cx-5-gains-skyactiv-g-25t-engine-option-in-the-united-states-126512.html

In light of the latest CARB and EPA activity the CX-5 diesel seems more promising than ever, really. If you remember in that Youtube video from a couple months ago where the Mazda Canada spokeswoman was being interviewed she spoke pretty confidently about it, as well. If you look at the date the...

Warranty up and enjoy it. Worry about more important things like chemtrails and Nibiru. [emoji23]

I know in my F150 ecoboost , you can definitely tell from the smell alone. The oil analysis shows a consistent 2% in only 5000 miles. I’d hate to see that oil in 10k miles! [emoji51]

Its safe to assume there still will be SOME fuel dilution as its just a fact of life with engines that are direct injected and turbo whether gas or diesel. However, hopefully Mazda mitigated most of this with the revision of the internals and fuel mapping with respect to the compounding of the...

Can’t disagree with that.

Mazda , the CX-5 and 6 were mentioned here. It’s worth noting that the Detroit Auto news is pretty conservative with their reporting and tend to steer away from rumors. In other words, if they are mentioning the two models, it must mean they have some solid info on them. Diesel's last gasp...

Good points. If you ever watched any reviews where Mazda engineer Dave Coleman is talking, you pick up on the car guy passion- like - attentiveness they give to their cars. As you said they are are certainly out-of-the-box thinkers.

Yeah, them Daimler and Bmw to a slightly lesser extent as well. Thanks, guys.

The EU isn’t exactly warm and cozy with diesels at the moment... However, you’re correct in that the US regulations have something to do with it. The Obama administration mandated that diesels sold in the US comply with the same parameters as a gasoline engine of the same size w regards to...

Here’s the paperwork that became publicly available shortly after carb certification https://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/onroad/cert/pcldtmdv/2018/mazda_ldt_a0160450_2d2_l3-160_diesel.pdf

At the time of this articles publishing, it wasn’t Carb Certified. Fwiw.

No offense, You come across as a half glass full negative Nancy with a distain for diesel and a slight tightness of the pants rigidity for Mazda’s SA-X technology . More power to you. Let me hope and ponder, thank you. I did post this in the Diesel forum ...right? For the amount of poo pooing...

Definitely since it’s measurably more efficient than the outgoing.

One can certainly hope. I believe the NHTSA records indicate it was 174 HP (177ps) if that is indicative of anything.

Does Mazda have order guides for the upcoming model year like other manufactures that you can get online or do they not work that way?

Last week of Nov.
