Was wandering if anybody experienced the same as what I am observing.
Model: CX5 2014
Engine: 2.5L
Millage: 17000km.
After going for its 3rd service, the performance is no longer the same.
I am finding that the engine is audibly laboring, especially when cold. As I leave home, I almost immediately climb a bridge. The engine appears to not want to shift to appropriate gear and a low tone (due to low RPM) is heard from the engine as it climbs the bridge.
I am finding that |I now more often, have to drive the gearbox, by releasing the accelerometer pedal, and then engaging it firmly to get a downshift. If I am driving aggressively up a hill, no problems. The car pulls nicely. If however I am taking it easily, I find the gearbox looks to gear up for fuel efficiency. If I then give gas, the response is simply horrible. I need to stomp on the pedal or release the pedal as already stated.
My thoughts are that some software upgrade has occurred that has changed engine mapping.
I noticed my settings like rear vehicle monitoring and stop/start was off. Also within first week, I tire pressure warning activated, something it had never done in the prior 3 years. I did question the dealer, but they could tell me nothing and suggested I bring the car back in. Thats a mission for me. So thought to ask here if anybody had similar experience.
