2017 Mazda CX-5

[glenn_duke]

A friend of mine demo'd his VK enclosed Corolla to me by having it under the sun while we ate and drank. It really worked. But I'm not paying tens of thousands for it, tho.

The reason I asked is that the Autohub Group distributes V-Kool locally, so I was expecting a generous discount. ;)

What is the FC of the 2.5 CX-7? Highway and city?

What is the FC of the 2.5 CX-7? Highway and city?

Between 8.4km/L - 9.7km/L on EDSA alone (Proj 6 QC to BGC all week) (Driver only)
Shell SLEX to Tagaytay to Nasugbu - 12.5km/L (3 pax + 1 Driver)

my experience so far

Thanks, matipid nga for the size of the engine.

Wifey will get hers next week.
Shes coming from a diesel Tucson, just making sure, para hindi masyadong mabigla wallet nya sa Shell Station.

Did you have the free tint? anong shade yung free tint? We requested for a change tint to 3M Magic Tint/Black Chrome, but we have to pay an additional around 5k.
Sa free tint hows night visibility? Planing to have BC-20 sa windshield at BC-10 all sides.

TIA

Yes, free sya even for the full front. i had the driver and passenger windows match the stock rear tint, and just the light one for the front. 3M sya but didn't bother with what particular model since the tint on my 13yr old 3 hasn't faded, warped or deteriorated one bit either, which was also applied by MGH.

Mine is 2018 na. I don't think there's a change.

The gas AWD with power seats plus price increase is the 2018 na for the 2.5.

How does the Front and Rear Parking Sensor works with your 2018 CX5 AWD Sport? Is it like this:

Mazda3 Genuine Screen integrated Front and Reverse Parking Sensors - YouTube

If not as shown there, how does it indicate which sensor has detected an obstacle?

It's got three levels of distance detection in the front and rear. It's also integrated with the Blindspot monitoring system. So even if you're stopped in traffic, if something or someone is nearby, it alerts you...like pedestrians walking in front of the car... even when backing up, the fronts will still work if it detects you're too near an adjacent vehicle or wall. (Car has to be in Reverse or Drive mode though, so once you put it in park, they go silent.) In the fronts there's indicators for left front, full front, and right front sensors are being activated. And similar to the rear.

Does that mean meron din tayo dito nung rear cross traffic alert habang umaatras? Iirc dapat yung mga front radar-based features lang ang wala, meaning yung adaptive cruise control tsaka yung distance to front car. Gumagana ba para sayo yung traffic sign detection?

Sobrang excited na ako for next week para sa releasing ng Machine Gray CX-5 diesel namin. Aba'y mga kalahating taon lang naman kami naghintay

Yes may rear cross traffic alert. Wala yung radar sa grill to enable AEB (Smart City Braking), Follow Cruise Control, pero yung Diesel has the windshield mounted camera for the Lane keep assist. Traffic signs are Navigation Card dependent. They just pop up...based on where you are on the map...pero they show up on the HUD once you get it installed.

Not sure what you mean by this. But all the sensors work when you are in Reverse or Drive, even standing still in traffic..

How about the indication of where the obstacle is?

Toyota has a very similar system, some have car icon somewhere in the dashboard and the corner blinks red when it detects an obstacle, while some shows on instrument cluster.

Not sure if CX5 is just plain buzzer sound and up to you to guess which corner sensor detected the obstacle.

I've seen the system you're referring to sa Toyota. Similar implementation nga with the Mazda except integrated siya into the rear camera, as in may overlay. Pag hindi ka naman umaatras, may indicator dun sa instrument cluster kung aling sensor yung naka-detect.

When a sensor is triggered, the Headunit will show the outline of the cx-5, with three levels of 'lines' in the front and rear and at the corners. It beeps and pulses the sensor side that is getting triggered, at what level, and with the corresponding beeping...the closer it is, the more frequent is the beep and pulses. Closest level is just one constant red indicator, and non interrupting beep. Multiple sensors can be showing...and the level with the closest level gets precedent on the beep.

If the turn signals are in use, the blind spot monitoring signals not only show up on the side mirrors, but also on the front heads up display and there's also an audible beep if it's not safe to turn that way. Without the turn signals, only the side mirror indicators will show. (meaning it'll light up even if you have no intention to change lanes...but will not beep)

Nababago rin ba yung sound ng proximity sensor katulad nung sa lane departure warning?

Also, di ko pala napansin when I first went to see the car, pero multi-information display ba yung sa AWD or yung standard lang na LCD display?

To help maintain batt health & lengthen its life, CTEK CT5 Start/Stop is a good investment for cars w/ this system. It will pay for itself.

Most premium euros (Bimmers, Mercs) come w/ Start/Stop now. Currently, an imported 100D23L Johnson Controls EFB in the local market has higher specs & lower price than the D23Q65 Motolite EFB. Both share same dimensions as the stock Q85. Let's hope start/stop batt prices drop as supply options rise.

Isn't Mazda PH removing the iStop "feature" after complaints from consumers on how expensive the battery was?

Another concern was that you could only change your battery at the casa so if your battery dies on you in the middle of the night and in the middle of nowhere you're shit out of luck.

Only the iStop will not function.

iStop is a very pricey, often misunderstood feature. It's more for the environment...the reduced FC, a bonus....& there will be that batt cost penalty. Mazda is inclined to keep the SRP close to current(thus, the planned removal) but retain GVC.
Re batt swaps, iStop relearning has 2 methods...thru dealerships & a step by step DIY procedure. Some reportedly have had luck....no issues from not doing any procedure after batt replacement. And, if you have a memory saver tool, you'll be spared, too. There are a number out there....here's 1....
OEMTOOLS 24453 OBD-II Memory Saver | eBay

For the DIYer, verify w/ dealership if this old method still works for the KF CX5...
iStop relearning DIY:

1. Warm the engine up. Turn everything electrical off that you can - radio, A/C, lights, chargers, etc. Bring it close to electrical load.

2. Switch the ignition off.

3. Switch ignition to on but dont start engine. Long-press the i-stop OFF switch for 3 s within 5 s after switching the ignition ON.

4. Start the engine.

5. Press the i-stop OFF switch. Verify that the i-stop indicator light (green) flashes and stays flashing. If it does not flash, go back to Step 3.

6. Allow the engine to idle for 10 minutes, or until the i-stop indicator light (green) turns off. Mine didnt stop flashing so after 10 minutes or so i just went to step 7.

7. Switch the engine off. Wait a minute or two.

8. Start the engine. Go for a drive, and check that the i-stop system operates normally. Those with i-stop will know that you may need to drive a mile or two until it activates. Remember that i-stop will not operate when (a) for diesels...when engines are in DPF regen mode, and (b) in those other conditions stated in the manual. Also, if a new battery was fitted, it may take some time for the new battery to fully charge up before i-stop will start working. Go for a decent drive so it gets fully charged.

9. If i-stop operates as normal, reset it was a success.
