Ask for more discounts from SA.

CX-5 not selling well.

Reliability wise, the engine is reliable.

This this this. Best to call/whatapps several SA from many branches and ask straight whats the rebate. Family bought CX5 in 2020 when this car were peak on sales, and one SA in Mazda Ulu Kelang Ampang - Act-Chievers Sdn Bhd give rm2k cash rebates, while most SA said only give full tank

Personally it is getting old with the design and the current gen is more towards cost savings. FYI, My cousin just cancel the order after knewing the new facelift model coming in next year (2026). The Mazda SC personally tell him to wait.

Can google the latest CX5 facelift news, one of the reason my cousin wait is there is improvement in term of interior space as one of the weakness of Mazda cars is this.

The HU just outdated. And if 2.0 NA, felt underpower at Karak highway. Maybe mine used to drive 1.8T and 2.4Na car

If for long term like 10~15 years ownership, Japanese car still fare better. Recently heard from my mechanic a lot of X50/X70 early batch plastic parts start to brittle easily, even Japanese car with more than 10 years very less heard of this happen.

which plastic part?

Engine bay, the famous plastic door handle, a lot of cheap plastic parts, cover etc.

for door handle, got plenty of sellers selling at Shopee for rm33 per side. And if look at why patah, when the car is locked, people will pull the handle and it wont open the door, unless unlock the door. This situation makes people pull more and harder (cz forgot it lock for instance), hence making the handle faster patah. No idea for the engine bay, believe can find online.

Not any.more they aren't.

When the kodo design Mazads 6 launched, yes.

But it's been more than a decade already. Kodo design getting stale

The most I disagree is the CX30 plastic trim, in terms of sizing, covering too high above the tyres. Saw a few occasions, the owner painted that plastic trim to body color, it looks not really blend well. And saw other paint it piano black (like previous gen HRV facelifted) look more weird on Cx30, due to sizing factor of the plastic trim

If ts indeed need CX5, please dont take the 2.2 Diesel and 2.5T variant, both of these suffering from mechanical issues related to the engine. Can google more.

And on any CX5 in general, please send for atf change after certain km, eventhough Bermaz sold it as seal for life atf. But capped the warranty only 100k km

Owner of 2021 cx5 with 6 year warranty done 90k km

The car is pretty much reliable to be honest. No major problem but I can list down stuff
1) battery replacement done 1nce. Normal price 7++ but Mazda give 50 percent for first battery change
2) side mirror unable to rotate. Replace under warranty
3) change tires once.
Other than that pretty much standard service foc

The only thing I hate about Mazda is how they die die do not want to change gearbox oil. I have change it outside at 60k mark and will do at 120k mark

I do not believe the gearbox will last the lifetime of car unless car is meant to only be 6 years

For my car with normal automatic, the regular workshop asked me to change the ATF at 30k km interval, which I did and now my mileage is hitting near 250k km. No issues whatsoever. I bought Shopee Mall ATF and best value for money. Hate for some manufacturer selling this as Seal for Life gb, but capped the warranty to 100k km only.

Now got rm20k discount for CX-8, rm10k discount for CX-5 & rm5k discount for CX-30.

at last Bermaz joins the rebates game, even though not much for CX-30, when others give 5-figure rebates as well.
