2017 Mazda CX-5

My CX-5 is already 2 years old. When I checked the battery's voltage (using voltmeter bought from Blade), it's at 50% but when I had the pms done in Mazda Otis (now it's Ssangyon/Changan), they said the battery was still in tip-top shape. Ano ba talaga? :P

Voltmeter? Are you referring to cranking voltage? How did you get that 50%?

Cranking voltage should not be lower than 10 volts (or 11, I can't remember). SG should be about 1.2 or above when using hygrometer.

Hahaha... go on for the 3rd advice bruh... 2 years means a lot already for a regular battery...

Had tested the 6krpm, weeee.... so sweet... much better than 3k rpm i always love to hear... if someone tailgating me, 6krpm is just a step away...

6000 RPM? You must have the gasoline variant. I told my brother to give it a try and use sports mode. He said he was fast, or at least he felt fast. And he added that "his fuel is also fast".

Sorry but I'm not a techie person hehe

Ito yung ginamit ko.... actually ang nag-register was 12.40 but I assumed it was the voltage so nasa 50% na lang.
