Were your CX-5s AWD or FWD?

My wife and I purchased a soul crystal red 2018 CX-5 back in 2021 ( certified pre-owned vehicle ).

Aside from the obvious that you are attempting perpetuate an already well responded and lots of real or shall we say fact empirical and experienced by way of actual Automotive technicians chiming in what difference would that ever make on the thread's topic. Most all the real answers will be exactly the same??
You know there are over 10 thousand thread topics to choose from and you are dead fast stuck on this one. Nice! lol

The only reason I am responding is I have not yet cleared out my thread notification for watched threads this week and last week yet.

Here is a great couple thread I choose just for you to have a look at!

If I were on a gun forum and had a problem where the firearm failed to load the last 2 bullets in the magazine, your "fix" would be "I never let the magazine get below 3 bullets".
If I had an issue where my tires were blowing out before wearing down to the wear bar, your "fix" would be "I replace my tires when 25% useful tread remains".
If my fridge wasn't quite holding temperature like it should and food was spoiling sooner, your "fix" would be "I eat the food faster".

You've provided nothing useful in the thread but have managed to get a handful of other rubes to agree that working around something that isn't functioning correctly is not only a "fix", but the best fix.
I prostate myself at your feet gently kissing them, humbled by your superior knowledge of logic.
I am amazed how brilliantly you surmised "fixed: (in parentheses a remark or passage that departs from the theme of a discourse).
Simply blown away by your technically advanced cranium's ability to achieve such a tremendous hypothesis.
Associating a fixed containment vessel of volatile liquid subject to measurable volumetric changes based on temperature, to the mechanical mechanisms of the metal molecular structure of a firearm, the complex structure of natural and man-made materials of tire compounds and appropriate consumption of perishable food items. The science community would be intrigued by your dissertation on this with your associated statement of principles. I'm certain your gun, tire and food forum compatriots are blinded by your presence.

I've seen issues with split/humped tanks in Mazda's where they have twin level sensors, mostly its the RHS level sensor that fails and fools the fuel gauge into an incorrect level display.


I would be testing the resistance reading of both LHS & RHS fuel level sensors ( as per workshop manual )

The first one I worked on was a real learning exercise, RX-8 running out of fuel while showing almost a 1/4 tank of fuel. Turned out to be a faulty RHS level sensor.
