    Need help identifying replacement CX-5 engine

    My bad, typo. Should have proof read before I hit post reply. Or waited until I got home and used my desktop computer. It should have read 2016.

    Need help identifying replacement CX-5 engine

    @yrwei52, thank you for the illustrations showing the difference between the two engines. To bring all up to date, I was given the VIN for the engine which showed it came from a 2018 CX-5 and it is indeed a 2.5L. Thanks to all for their input and ideas.

    Need help identifying replacement CX-5 engine

    The insurance claim was filed under comprehensive which included zero deductable, free towing (50 miles) and a free rental car. Yeah I know, we'll see how much her rate goes up next time. I'm assuming the reason for a used motor is the car is 5 some may argue 6 years old with just over 100,000...

    Need help identifying replacement CX-5 engine

    My wife has a 2016 CX-5 and while traveling home on a highway she struck an animal. The impact took out the AC condenser, radiator and most of the front grill. By the time the vehicle was able to safely pull over the engine over heated causing the engine to warp. This according to the shop where...

    Rear Cam - Sudden change in view, now shows Licence Plate

    Well my friend, I'm 1000% sure the license plate was not in the view of the camera. As an individual who has been taking photographs and has involved with cinema since I was 15 (almost 50 years) I know what I see or don't see in an image. So put that in your pipe and smoke it.

    Back Up Camera Changed Field of View

    Probably buried on Oak Island. I did find another thread on this, so I know of at least one other Mazda vehicle has this issue.

    Back Up Camera Changed Field of View

    Not likely. I've scrolled through various areas on her infotainment center and the only thing relating to the backup camera is with the monitor itself, which allows adjusting color, contrast and brightness. Thanks for the input.

    Rear Cam - Sudden change in view, now shows Licence Plate

    The very same issue just started with my wife's 2016.5 CX-5. The car is her daily driver and I noticed it while backing it out of the garage the other morning. I checked the camera, the mounting and all seemed fine. Just wondering if you found a fix or a reason why the sudden change. Also, did...

    Back Up Camera Changed Field of View

    Still pondering the situation with the backup camera on my wifes car. I'm going to reboot her infotainment center when she gets home this evening from work this evening. Hopefully, it will work.

    Back Up Camera Changed Field of View

    Not a serious problem, but it has me scratching my head. Went to back my wife's CX-5 out of the garage the other morning and in addition to seeing the normal view, I could see a good portion of her license plate. Once backed out and parked, I checked the actual camera and the mounting. It all...

    Man, I posted my last reply just as your post hit. Thanks for the links. Now the question is (or maybe it's in the articles) who bought the Mazda franchise in my area? And, will the service be better Thanks again

    AutoNation sells Mazda franchise

    The dealers in San Antonio are not affliated with AutoNation and appear to be independent. In my humble opinion, that's a good thing. I bought my Tacoma from AutoNation several years ago, but anytime I HAVE to go to a Toyota dealer I drive another 45 miles to avoid AutoNation Toyota It was the...

    AutoNation sells Mazda franchise

    Wish that was the same for me. The closest dealer from my house is in San Antonio, which is about 150 miles away. Hell, Toyota has a manufacturing plant closer, not by much but closer. I guess if Ohio is Mazda country, Texas must be truck country. ;)

    AutoNation sells Mazda franchise

    Yep. Here they have Chevrolet, Cadillac, Buick/GMC, Ford, Honda, Hyundai and Toyota. Just seemed pretty sudden and without notice that the Mazda franchise was dropped.

    AutoNation sells Mazda franchise

    I search several pages on this forum before posting, but didn't find anything on this topic. I also did a Google search on this as well, again no results. I know it's been done as the AutoNation where we purchased my wife's CX-5 has removed all of their Mazda signs and inventory. Seeing this I...

    Fumoto Valve Question

    Going by what Kedis82ZE8 had to say, I ordered the N version that included the lever clip off Amazon. My trail period of Prime was about to end so I also got free shipping, so the whole kit was right at $29. I've been changing the oil in my wife's vehicle every 5,000 miles since new (now at...

    And no problems with the clearance and putting the plastic cover back on after the oil change?
