Hello All

I need to replace the engine in my 2013 CX5 (2.5l, AWD).

Few questions if anyone has the time

*Can you remove the engine from the top of the engine bay? Or does it 100% need to be from the bottom?
*Any change of getting the engine out, and leaving the box in the bay?

Looks very very tight in the bay - any pointers would be great.

Thanks

 

Not a CX-5 but may be helpful.

Drop the subframe. drop the engine & box out the bottom. Easy.
