looking to replace CX-5 tyres, any recommendations on brands, price and shop locations?

I went for Michelin PS4 SUV at Subang Jaya previously. I forgot the shop name already but it cost about 500 per tyre.

The problem is that even >200k cars like GLC also have their own fair share of issues. It's rare to find a car where it's 100% problem-free. Maybe the Myvi and some Toyotas come close to it, but not sure which cars are truly worry-free in the range of 180k-300k rclxub.gif
*
Lexus perhaps since they are CBU. But I agree with you - even cars above 200k or 300k has their own fair share of issues. Most important thing here is how good is the service and warranty claim from the service center. For me, despite having few issues here and there within the first 3 years of ownership, I managed to claim warranty for all of them and the repair/replacement is quick as well. I never had an instance where I need to send it my car and can't use it at all for weeks or months (if you know the spare part horror for Proton x70).

But all in all, it's up to you. Keep your options open and definitely put CX-5 into your shortlist. Alternative options I can think off would be CRV, Tiguan and X-Trail.

I can live without cruise control but blind spot monitoring (BSM), rear cross traffic alert and AEB (front and back) is very useful. It certainly save me from car accident for a few times. So do consider vehicles with these features when you are doing your purchase.

Which service center did you go? It could be because of the parts shortage happening all around the world?

Thanks for the valuable input. Yes BSM, RCTA, AEB, and ACC are kinda my must-haves moving forward (my pre-FL Civic doesn't have these).

CX-5 is definitely on my shortlist, it's at the top of it, in fact laugh.gif it's just a bit scary to see so many people in this thread having issues with the front suspension and side mirror motors. My hope is that the eventual facelift will fix these issues from the production line since I can't imagine it'd be good margin-wise for them to keep doing these replacements under warranty.
*
Yea I wonder why despite few years after they launched the new gen CX-5, these common issues still persist. Could it be CKD or supplier issue since Mazda was ranked top 2 in reliability in Consumer Reports? hmm.gif But if you got time, you can monitor other car brand thread. I think each of them will have their own complains and quality issues as well. Hey in fact even the good ol Honda also have tons of issues.

I am not so border on obvious issue that can be fix by replacing parts, it is not that concern as the car under warranty anyway. Replace it and the issue gone.
What I think the most annoying is the rattling sound/noise.
If the rattling sound is very obvious also cant guarantee 100% Technician can fix it for you. If can fix it, also cant 100% guarantee the sound will not come back later.

Even worst if the sounds happens on/off. when you test drive with Technician and the sound dissapear.

I have obvious rattling dashboard sound after 1 month drive, record video for the sound and show to the technician.
1st time complain, Tech fix it(so call), sound come back within 1wk.
2nd time complain again, they seriously look into the problem, test drive & fix multiples times(~5hrs, >50km drived as i check the milage).
omg, it really fix it, no more rattling sound…..., guess waat, the sound only appear 3 times in the next 10 mths...i consider a bless...lol

then recently comes the minor rattling sound on the driver door.

as some of you said, just live with it.
It not worth to border the sound and take personal leave just to fix the it. I will just complain when it come to the service internal.
The more you send to fix it, the more sound you get later due to dismantle and reassemble…lol

As if you ask me if next time will I ever choose Mazda again? It depends on what the future product will be.
I do believe every car brand hv it own problems, it a matter of PPM level and how lucky you are.
*
This is so true. The rattling noise is so annoying. It happened to my door but SC couldn't fix it. Ended up I have to take off the door panel and fix it myself. Some parts inside the door panel is rattling...could be because of loose parts.

Just reached 700km. Some review points that I wanna share below:

1. I notice my fren CX5 (2020 iinm) has the GVC & 2.0GLS badge where mine (2021) doesn't, is it due to different batches?
2. There's 1 time I cant open the boot (car is full stopped - park in front of house) from pressing the boot from my dashboard and it sound 2 times, is it a rare case or something prevent it from opening it?
3. Avg KM is about 11.2km/L, 60% highway 40% city? So far the car has been through 1 and the half tank run about 700km, not sure is high FC or not?
4. In some situations i feel that the car is under powered when accelerating form 0 to 40 as my usual rev is at 2 max.
5. Crusing at 110 - 130 is really fun as the engine is not struggle and making lots of noises.
6. The istop is not so practicle at times, when the car stops in rush hour, the istop triggers and shuts the engine about few seconds, then the engine starts back where the car is not moving at all. I feel it hurting the battery and the engine mounting as you guys mentioned here.
I will buy the istop module from shopee to install it. Speaking of the module, if the SC saw the module attached, should be alright? Or I had remove it before I send to SC?
*
1. Yes it is.
2. Are you on P gear? Like others have mentioned it's to prevent driver from accidentally opening the the boot when you are driving.
3. It's pretty okay given it's a SUV so it's heavier than normal sedan.
4. It's doing okay for an SUV since it's heavy and non turbo. If acceleration or power is your main priority then perhaps then 2.2 diesel or 2.5 turbo would be a much better option.
5. rclxm9.gif
6. The module should be just plug and play to the OBD port below the petrol opener button so whenever you want to send your car for warranty claim you can just unplugged it.
