I am coming up on the BIG 50,000 miles servicing.

Aside from a complete under chassis pressure washing, exterior washing and polishing and detailed interior cleaning. The engine compartment will get a bath.
Rotate tire/wheels
The mechanical servicing will be:
Air filter cleaning
Intake system cleaned
Throttle body
IAT
MAP
Both belts changed ECU returned to OEM files reset all counters to 0 upload/flash a current Mazda ECU update. Copy complete program for back up then return to VersaTune perfromance mapping
Both H02 replaced
New spark plugs
New Spark plug boots
Engine oil and filter change Collect sample to have analyzed.
Transmission filter and fluid service Collect sample to have analyzed.
New wipers (for winter)
Drain and fill wiper fluid reservoir.
Drain clean brake revivor.
Change brake fluid including ABS
Clean HVAC System
Clean Cabin Filter

All from my house. This will take about 3-5 days mostly because the normal washing and detailing uses the most time.

I have almost collected all the necessary parts.

Looks good. So many people deleting the chrome trim that when you see a car with chrome it looks unique.

I found a RED gauge ring and side plates I was going to use about 4 years ago and decided on a blue theme instead of red for some interior trimming and such. and painted it chrome/silver to match my Autometer gauges in my console. Sometimes it is the little things that seem to bug me if I don't modify them.
I may paint the side trim plates sating black to rid the MAZDA silver edging on the 2 side dash monitors?

@Callisto I wanted to know if you had any experience with replacing and installing a new tail light for the Mazda cx-5 2023 model. I am unable to find where to unplug the cord that powers the LED for the light. I am trying to repair it myself because insurance is at an all-time high. If you can help or know anyone else who can help me please reply back. Feel free to also email me at Acfolk919@gmail.com

Sorry, this is not a how to nor an advice thread if you read the first post. Please start your own thread about a service question you have.

Thank You
