I swapped the radiator in mine when old one broke and filled with new asian green type coolant, and the aluminum radiator has made a world of difference. Also check the air filters.
I bought a 19’ Premium at 17 it’s a great little car beat the shit out of it for 4 years straight and it runs amazing still. Handles well in the winter as long as you have clearance it’ll get you there in one piece. Regular maintenance along with trans fluid change, spark plugs, brakes, diff fluid change. I’d recommend a cpo premium . Great value.
Very dependable even with low boost, pretty simple and easy to work on. They are known to burn oil, and the coils fail pretty frequently, those are the worst problems I had with mine.
His initial experience with the Mazda has been pleasant, but it's definitely not as refined as the Corolla. Definitely sportier and looks great, but it has some areas where it's rougher around the edges than the Corolla. Things like having a different size oil filter from the factory than what is sold as the replacement part... Quality of Life stuff like that.
I had this happen on a 2021.5 Mazda CX-5. There was a very small scratch on the passenger side that resembled the wipe pattern of the wiper blade.
If you replace them, get a good brand, Mazda rotors are notoriously terrible. Good OEM pads tho.
The next thing that went wrong was the passenger side brake caliper seized up. I spent a grand on front brakes and rotors.
I just came looking for this post because I cannot believe the amount of chips and cracks I'm having with this car. Just had safelight out for the 3rd time and haven't even reached a full year with this car yet.
Garbage. I got scratches from scratching ice of the windshield in my first year. Even my old Renault Clio hadn't had this sh1t of quality in it's windshield.
When I had my CX-5, I've never had so many cracks in my windshield as I did with this car. Constant cracks, chips... I've never seen anything like it. I've been driving for 40 years and this was the first and only vehicle which always suffered cracks and chips.
