So its basically wanting the convenience of prolonging the battery and starter at the expense of losing the alarm. Bummer. Whoever thought of I-stop on being default should be shot by a firing squad hehe. BTW, the alarm's function is just sound right? If a thief was able to break in and no alarm sounds, he still wouldn't be able to start the car without the keyfob?

The problem with the skyactiv diesel is it uses the starter to restart the engine when I-stop shuts it down. Unlike the gas models. So the starter really takes a beating. Especially on my route, the are a lot of stop and go. Sometimes I forget to turn it off. Only to be surprised that the engine already shuts itself off

I was searching for my post and apparently I posted in the other CX5 thread haha
I don't have the CTEK battery conditioner, I know I won't be able to do that, too lazy and forgetful
But I'm planning to buy the CTEK Battery Sense to check for battery life. Is this a reliable gadget? Or is the ordinary battery checker (checks the voltage - don't know what you call it) good enough?
Good day guys! Meron na bang nagpalit ng battery for 2018 cx-5 skyactiv diesel? Where and what brand would you suggest? Thank you in advance sa reply[emoji4]

Cruising at 120kph yet cabin feels like at 80kph... so quiet...

Bakit 3k rpm lang? Give it a little more push, to 6k rpm. Hehehe
Sa SCTEX, yung 150kmh halos tahimik pa rin yung cabin ng modern cars. At 200kmh or more, you can definitely hear the wind pelting the exterior of the car and the noise radiates indoors, even more so for crossovers.![]()
Mash the pedal to the floor for more fun sounds. It will downshift two gears and go all the way to 6k rpm. Them Skyactivs love to be revved.
