I have a Ssangyong Kyron before so diesel clatter is okay. What swayed my decision is the iActiveSense package. Now for the long wait for the car ....

Good excuse har, haha

BTW, CX-5 is good car and you did the right choice. In fact during tax holiday period to change the car is right timing but you have to consider that the second value of your old car also depreciated, so net off is save not much unless you buy additional new car without trade in.

book CX-5 2.0GLS already.

lets see how long I can get the car

my 3rd Mazda car already.

Welcome bro. Mazda should be grateful of having you as their loyal customer.

Few days with my 2.0 GLS
Some thoughts on I-stop system.
Actually is quite a intelligent system, I-stop only activate when I want it to.
When in traffic jam, if I not fully floor the brake pedal, by slowly slowly pressure it, It would engine stop (and I-stop indication blinking) and i fully floor the brake pedal (if i wanted to) then only I-stop activate.
So along my normal day ride every morning about 10km traffic jam, the I-stop won't disturb me with engine stop actually.....

When you booked your car already?

I booked DCB 2.0GLS on 2nd June, and my SA told me during end of July that I am holding queue number 60.

Number 60 was later became 50 during the first week of August.

So you can agak2 estimate when will be your delivery date.

Note : 60 or 50 queue number is based on whole Malaysia orders for DCB 2.0gls.

Yes bro, figured this out yesterday too.

Now I par that with my On-Hold button, when i fully floor my brake pedal, i-Stop and On-Hold activated. And i can rest my legs during traffic jam.

And also kind of get used to the jerking (i-Stop on and off).

Didn't trade in my old car. I pass it down to my sister It's quite new as well, about 4-5 years old only so didn't plan to sell it off.

Don't really like the jerking/vibrating feeling when the car restarts. Also hard to control the brake pedal since I like to fully step on it usually

Made my booking a month back but still no response from Mazda.

Cannot wait to join in the Club. 2.0 GLS

Seems like Bermaz got alot of backlog

Ya. the vibration when engine restart really annoying, but the engine restart and moving forward the timing and duration almost seamless (for me, and I first time with this I-stop system) feel Good for me.....

Individual's preference I guess. Another thing is the idling vibration. I can feel the vibration when the RPM goes below 750. It annoys the hell out of me. Might go for some ECU tuning soon.

Ya, I noticed the vibration when idling too, (sometimes not everytime), I presume is fan kick in?

No idea man. It only happens when it goes below 750 RPM. Can tune the idling RPM to stay above 750 so that it won't vibrates much

because my friend is Mazda dealer boss.

let see if I can get jump queue or not.

Right...If you jump queue please do not reveal..

Else your friend will kena kawkaw...

Here got alots of member waited since 2 months back and in FB got a member waited 4 month as well...all also 2.0GLS Deep Crystal Blue.

We will welcome you to join the CX-5 waiting club.

Not sure whats my que number but from my dealers side is number 7th. Booked on May 28th.

Oh I see. then you will get call from your SA anytime soon.

From my previous analysis, Those who booked on May from Mazda Branch, are already got their car delivered on July. Dealers should be slower.

Am waiting for my machine grey 2.0 Gls, wanna ask sifus here. Anyone had change from ori 17" rims to CX3 ori 18" rims? How it looks like on the vehicle and what is FC?
