Long Island, New York. I required a three-row vehicle to transport my grandchildren on weekends, although I was reluctant to compromise my principles by acquiring a minivan. I examined competitors in this segment and was particularly impressed by the design, engine, features, and pricing of the CX-90. As I would require the third row infrequently, I sought a vehicle that would be enjoyable to operate during the remainder of the time. I have desired one since its release, but I postponed my purchase until the faults were resolved, and Mazda has predominantly rectified them. I previously owned an Eddie Bauer Expedition, which I cherished; nevertheless, engine problems compelled me to dispose of it despite my diligent care and upkeep. Thus far, I am enamoured with this vehicle. Regarding the reviews who criticise the rear as bulbous, I assert that I have always appreciated women with curves.

Thank you; I will review it this weekend.

Thank you, I will examine it. Are the gaskets or plastic susceptible to failure?

Greetings to all, Recently, while driving my 2014 C63, I have observed a faint odour of petroleum in the cabin. This scent fluctuates but has been increasingly noticeable. There is no odour in the engine compartment and no discernible leaks present. The vehicle is entirely stock and operates smoothly without any warning lights on the dashboard or stored error codes. I am uncertain about what to inspect; does anyone have any advice? Thank you very much

We will be acquiring a new television soon, and I am enquiring whether I can get it personally. The boxes measure approximately 44 to 45 inches in width, which is my primary concern; I do not anticipate any issues with the length. I understand it will not fit horizontally, but it appears it may be accommodated at an angle within the car. I am enquiring whether anyone has attempted it, since I am concerned it may not fit, necessitating a return to the store in embarrassment.

Thank you for the counsel.

I much appreciate your counsel.

I heard that an 80% charge is common, with a monthly charge approaching 100%. Is that correct? Do you have any suggestions? I appreciate your assistance in advance.

The battery voltage is unlikely to be the source of issues with the wheel speed sensor. I recently encountered the message "ABS Inoperative, consult owner's manual" on my SLK. A code reader indicated a malfunction with the rear nearside wheel speed sensor, which I replaced, and after deleting the code, the ABS warning on the dashboard has ceased. However, you need a diagnostic tool that, like to MB's Xentry system, provides comprehensive information on the defect and its location. It took me less than half an hour to detach the rear wheel, remove the old sensor, install the new, reattach the wheel, and use his code reader to clear the error code and verify appropriate functionality.

I have been operating a CX-70 inline 6 loaner for one week. Aside from minor external stylistic variations, it is fundamentally a five-passenger CX-90. I am astonished. I had previously owned two 2024 CX-90 inline six versions as loaners. On both occasions, I anxiously anticipated the chance to retrieve my CX-90 PHEV. No more. I am astonished by the superior performance of the CX-90's gearbox. I am equally astonished by how they enhanced the driving comfort while preserving the robust handling. Mazda has evidently implemented more than just software modifications to the CX-90, which have likely also been applied to the 2025 CX-90 vehicles. I want the financial means to purchase a 2025 CX-90 PHEV. Nevertheless, I cannot bear the financial burden of being $15,000 to $20,000 in debt on a new car. I will never purchase a first-year car again and I advise anybody contemplating a CX-90 to get a 2025 model or later, rather than a used 2024 one.

I visited last year and quite enjoyed it. I aspire to arrive this year, but I may be occupied. -
I am prepared for the 5,000-mile oil change on my 2024 CX-30 Turbo.I prefer not to visit the dealership again due to their exorbitant charges for an oil change. Will my local oil change facility use the appropriate oil for a turbo engine? I will likely contact them in advance.What specific oil is optimal for my vehicle? I have encountered numerous perplexing and occasionally contradicting information regarding the appropriate oil to use in my turbo.Thank you

Depletion of PHEV battery in "Sport" mode
pharmoun replied to WolfieBase's topic in General Car Chat
The 'Towing' mode is also accessible when towing. This mode appears to enable the gearbox to respond differently (at higher RPM) while maximising the delivery of electric vehicle power. (and additionally features a 'boost' function) -
Depletion of PHEV battery in "Sport" mode
pharmoun replied to WolfieBase's topic in General Car Chat
Affirmative. In sport mode, it is typical for the batteries to significantly assist the engine, particularly while navigating hilly terrain. The power distribution is observable on the vehicle's information displays. -
I trust you have applied some kind of paint protection. It would be disappointing to see faults in the paint early on due to proximity to several building sites. PPF in essential areas is really beneficial.
-
It must have been a substantial rock. I trust you do not often encounter building zones. I had challenges with my first new automobile and acquired valuable insights.

Have you successfully resolved the issue yet?

Inquiry Concerning BMW Locking Wheel Nuts
pharmoun replied to rab60bit88's topic in General Car Chat
I damaged a genuine one and purchased a new one, which was also compromised. I took it to the garage, where they were unable to remove it. They considered welding a nut on, but after one final attempt, they successfully removed it. Subsequently, I eliminated the lockers from all my vehicles, although my M4 still has lockers; however, I have new bolts prepared for when the wheels are removed for new tires, etc. -
Vito W638: what is the designation of the directional component?
pharmoun replied to HOV's topic in General Car Chat
The essential need for using a Mercedes-Benz primary dealer is to own your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). This might be located in several areas of your car. Examine the side of the door frame when opening the door. -
No lights or indicators are activated, and the vehicle is entirely powered off when I secure it.
