    FL-22 Antifreeze replacement?

    I'd like to change the antifreeze in our 2012 Mazda 3 and I believe it takes FL-22 coolant. I had ordered Mazda Coolant FL22, P/N 000077508e2 from BAM Wholesale Parts in the past but that site now says this is discontinued. Is there some replacement I should use from Mazda? If so, what is...

    2013~2016 Can I upgrade my CX5 to have Navigtion?

    We have a 2014 CX-5 AWD. There is a NAV button on the radio and I was wondering if there is some way to upgrade it to have Navigation capability (i.e. - by getting a module to plug into ther radio, etc.). I attached a picture of the radio. Mike

    2013 & 2014 CX-5 Rear License Plate Bolts

    I am trying to find replacement bolts for our 2013 CX-5 and 2014 CX-5 rear license plate. I attached pictures of the bolt I took out. I think this is the same as pictured as 88-6511 at http://www.licenseplatescrews.com/metric.html. Does anybody know if what comes with the car is an M6 X 20mm...

    2014 Rear Badge Removal?

    Noticed your post and, oddly enough, my daughter is looking for a Skyativ badge (P/N KDY3-51-771 ) to put on her car. If you, or anybody on the posts, wants to sell the badge your removed I will buy it. Guess it's true -- one man's junk is another man's treasure! :)

    Which 2014 Touring to buy

    The guy at the tire store said that the folks he's sold them to have all been happy -- also puts them on as replacements for the local Mazda dealer and they seem to be happy. Again, thanks!

    Which 2014 Touring to buy

    Wanted to thank you for the Discount tire tip. I called them this morning and they beat all other prices and had the General AltiMAX RT43 H rated tires. All you said was correct too - warranty, etc. and they were really reasonable for install, etc.. Will keep you and others up to speed on how...

    Which 2014 Touring to buy

    Thank you for your response! I have a quick question on tires. We can get AltiMAX 225/65R17 102T tires at WalMart for $99 each. They don't have the AltiMAX 225/65R17 102H tires. Do you think the H or the T is better. I think the H is rated at a higher speed than the T. Let me know your...

    Which 2014 Touring to buy

    Thank all of you for your advice! I am trying to figure out how to thank all of you with replies and thought I would try this. Seemed unanimous to get the car that had not been in an accident and had AWD. I have a deposit in now and if you want to check the car out it is at...

    How much life is left in tires

    Thank you for a great response! As I mentioned, we haven't bought this yet. The 2 rear tires are 11/32 and the 2 front measured 8/32 (according to the dealer). It is out of town and we had them send pictures. Very strange. The 2 front tires are different makers. One seems to say PERFORMAX...

    How much life is left in tires

    I am looking at buying a 2014 CX-5 Touring. The dealer selling says the rear tires have 8/32 left and the front have 11/32. They said new is 12/32. I am not at all knowledgeable about tires. How many miles do you think these have left? Appreciate your tips! Mike

    How's the CX-5 bumper absorbing bumps and scratches?

    Dented Rear Bumper My daughter has a 2013 CX-5 and it looks as though a person "kissed" her car as well -- probably with a trailer hitch. The unpainted part of the bumper (the lower part) is dented in the middle. It seems like it can be popped out. How hard was this to do on yours?
