You have a hybrid CX-5? Didn't know they were a thing. What engine/battery combo does it have? How many HP does it produce in total?

 

It still has the same command ****. Touchscreen functions are limited from what I understand (I think you have to be stopped to use them).

 

Yeah I knew it has the command dial since I have 2024 right now as a loaner. I just didn't know it was also a touch screen.

 

It is a mild hybrid.
Engine is a NA 165 HP Manual.
Battery is a small 24V Lithium-Ion and provides a small boost when accelerating.
It charges while braking and provides a very smooth start-stop experience.

 

I'm back. Just a little under 3 weeks and I have a new engine in my CX-5 turbo. So far so good. Is there anything I need to do to help keep this thing alive this time? I had been having oil/filter changed at my dealer every 5,000. Is that too little? Any service I should be getting? Or is this just a sometimes you get a bad one and find out years later thing?

 

It's really just luck of the draw. There are many, many forum members with CX-5 turbos (myself included) which have had no issues (knocks on wood). I do 5k oil changes on mine. Hopefully you just had one of the anomalies.
