What's those aluminum tubes under the running board? I forgot what they've called.

They're not them off-road rock sliders though....just the cosmetic OEM bodykit there, sir.[emoji4]

Guys, natry nyo na ba magpa-ship ng car accessories using aliexpress? Ang dami kasing cx-5 accessories for 2017/2018. Most of the items have free shipping options. Yung ibang items/accessories may shipping fee pero maliit lng and mas mura pa din compare sa mga nagbebenta dto sa Philippines ng same item.

I felt a slight vibration just like a low rpm kinda feel so I went to Pampanga.

Somebody there is looking for Cocoboy. Hehe!

Kidding aside they have a few reports of such but no hints as to what it was. However the Mazda tech group will be there tomorrow for inspection of their shop so they'll ask. I also asked about the nose piercing smell which I think is the DPF burning the residue. They also don't know. Upon kneeling on the floor to show the tech guys the muffler, I just noticed that the smoke kinda smells like water. No diesel smoke smell at all. Must be good!

Free carwash din.

2 ways to do the Compulsory DPF regen...thru either the Test Terminal or M-MDS.

Thanks! Confirmed. It's the DPF procedure indeed.

Try avoiding active DPF regen as much as you can. Passive is healthier & will take place once the exhaust reaches optimum temperatures...usually on prolonged spirited drives out in the wide open or fun twisties. A good reason to keep stretchin' those legs.[emoji4]
