Hi all, I am a newbie here and also a soon to be owner of the CX-5.

This topic may have been brought up before but I would like to know your thoughts on the torque of the 2.2D on the FWD vs AWD. I have seen a video clip on youtube by a local established car reviewer on the 2.2D FWD and his thoughts was that it causes wheelspins and torque steer, as power is now channeled onto the FWD drivetrain. Although widely noticeable when he tested the car, he also advised user to consider the AWD.

Personally i have not tested the 2.2 FWD but instead tested the 2.2 AWD and the drivetrain on acceleration is seamless. I was also told that AWD production has been postponed to later part of the year, SST would kick in by then. What was offered was the 2.2FWD for sale which there isn't a demo car available, not in my local SC at least, have called up a few but only AWD available for testing.

The lingering question is for those that are owning the 2.2FWD, are you noticing this wheelspin and torque steer? Do these problems bother you on your daily drive?

I'm quite fixed on the 2.2FWD (not much choice left vs the AWD at much later production). Thoughts?

Thanks.

Thanks @widget for the insight. I guess i wouldnt be 'pedal-happy' on daily drives either. I'm more concerned if the car is on the move and there is need to accelerate (overtaking etc) that the sudden rush of torque would give rise to the problem. Can't imagine if I have to deal with the wheelspin everytime the pedal pressed. I guess as long as the wheelspin kicks in from standstill and is expected from suddenly pressing of the pedal its acceptable. Thanks.

Guys, anyone facing paint chip off for soul red? Heard the complain in Facebook group.

Well known issues in the local FB groups too.
Some early adopters already complaint on the paint chip issues for the SRC

Sigh..I just got my soul red and I got disheartened when I saw the complaints 

Quickly go for PPF to minimise the risk of paint chip.

Hi, what about DC blue? will it have the same issue?
Thank you

Not that obvious as SRC, as I've been driving my DCB since Feb this year.
Although I noticed some few paint chips here and there, my daily work commuting is almost 90 km to and fro, using DUKE and NKVE on highway speed, so paint chip is definitely non avoidable.

But I do agree that the paint layer is quite thin compared to my previous CBU 2011 KIA Sportage or my FIL's CKD 2014 Honda CR-V.

did you do coating for your car ?

Hi all,

I understand that the insurance price varies depending on the user profile but approximately what's the price? How much would it be for 2.0?

Hi, what about DC blue? will it have the same issue?
Thank you

good coating might help too

coating will not help on the paint chip causes my stone. I have ceramic pro 9h coating on my cx5 but some stone chip are pretty deep on it. Unless u willing to go for ppf wrap
