Mazda CX-5 is one of the innovative models. The pride of the crossover has become a new advanced power plant, which uses SKYACTIV technology. The high reliability of the Mazda CX-5 engine is due to its design features and factory assembly quality. The internal combustion engine for this model range is available in several trim levels, in particular, 2.0 and 2.5 liters. Motors differ in technical characteristics and electronic control unit.
Modifications of Mazda CX-5 power units
The Mazda CX-5 has three main ICE modifications, which are installed at the official plant and are maximally adapted to all the needs of the popular crossover. The general characteristic of the Mazda CX-5 engine allows you to provide high torque, which has a positive effect on the car's cross-country ability. The engine has an in-line arrangement of 4 cylinders and computer-controlled direct injection. Type of location of the internal combustion engine - front transverse. With a compression ratio of 14 points, the Mazda CX-5 engine is started by a starter with an increased power of 2 liters. With.
The power plants of the crossover, depending on the configuration.
On Mazda CX-5 cars, the engine layout is absolutely the same - with a 4-cylinder block, almost equal in volume, torque and transverse arrangement. In order to save money and improve maintainability, the official developer preferred to manufacture all 3 modifications on one block. In terms of technical stuffing, the nodes are not much different. The only exception is a change in the size of the cylinder and piston group. For the Mazda CX-5 2.0 engine, the cylinder is 83.5 mm, and for the Mazda CX-5 with a 2.5 engine, it is 89.0 mm. Due to the increase in volume, traction and throttle response in different modes of movement increase. Additionally, for the purpose of modernization, an improved control program is being introduced into the motor.
When the engine needs repair: signs and causes of a malfunction
Even with heavy loads on the Mazda CX-5 engine, problems with its performance are rare, since the life of the engine under proper operating conditions is at least 800,000 kilometers. On a Mazda CX-5 car, an engine error may occur due to a malfunction of one of the components. In addition to the electronic notification on the control panel, you should pay attention to the overall operation of the internal combustion engine.
Signs of a faulty Mazda internal combustion engine:
- Unstable motor operation
- Vibration, twitching
- Reduced traction, dynamics
- Significant consumption increase
- Extraneous sounds in the hood area
In addition to the listed signs, malfunctions can be hidden and periodically notify the car owner of their existence. For example, the oil pressure in the engine at idle will be normal, but with heavy traffic, the lamp on the dashboard lights up. Signs may indicate that the oil pump cannot cope with the load and a thorough diagnosis at the service center is required.
The most common cause of engine breakdowns is cost savings on maintenance. The installation of cheap analogues does not guarantee the long-term performance of all nodes, as the purchased products are produced without factory certification. Unlike original spare parts, fakes have low strength, which negatively affects the car.
In general, the resource of the Mazda CX-5 engine is quite large, but only with timely and proper maintenance.
Scheduled maintenance
For convenience and safety, the car owner receives a notification about the need for maintenance. The message is displayed on the dashboard. The frequency of scheduled maintenance and reliability checks of the Mazda CX-5 engine is carried out once a year or every 20 thousand kilometers. An oil change is mandatory after the crossover has covered a distance of 10,000 km, and the installation of a new air filter every 6-10 thousand km.
During maintenance, the following are subject to replacement:
- Air filter
- Engine oil
- Cabin filter
- Gear oils
- Coolant
- Brake Fluids
- Oil filter
During the next maintenance, the manufacturer recommends checking the Mazda CX-5 engine for the performance of all components by connecting to a special computer (diagnostics). Any technical measures should be carried out in specialized service stations. To determine the configuration, as well as obtain detailed data on the technical filling of the internal combustion engine, you can see a photo of the Mazda CX-5 engine and its license plate.
Motor Diagnostics
The Japanese crossover, like any modern car, is equipped with a lot of electronics. Many sensors monitor the correct operation of the entire system, but sometimes failures occur. When the Mazda CX-5 ignition is turned on, the Check-Engine indicator lights up on the dashboard. If the system check was successful, then the light turns off after a few seconds, and if a Mazda CX-5 engine malfunction is detected, it continues to burn. In this case, the car owner should certainly conduct a professional diagnostics of the vehicle.
Diagnostic scanner from Mazda shows:
- throttle opening level (in percent);
- engine speed and temperature;
- voltage in the on-board network;
- engine load;
- systematic fuel injection nozzle;
- temperature of the air supplied to the motor.
If the owner does not have the opportunity to diagnose the car with licensed software, you can try to do it yourself. Here are some recommendations:
- Inspect the engine compartment for leaks of technical fluid;
- Using a dipstick, check the level and condition of the oil;
- Review spark plugs. Black soot on them indicates problems with the fuel system. Red is formed due to the use of low-quality fuels and lubricants, which can cause a lack of spark.
- Sound diagnostics. Voiced and frequent at maximum speed indicates the need to adjust the valves. A smooth knock, the volume of which does not change with a change in driving speed, appears when the valve-distributing mechanisms are worn.
Engine evaluation
On Mazda CX-5 cars, an engine replacement with a complete re-registration of the unit is extremely rare. the design of the internal combustion engine itself is made taking into account the general technological norms and world standards. Most often, a partial replacement of components is carried out on cars manufactured in 2011-2012, in particular, the piston group, camshafts and valve mechanism. If the check engine check on the Mazda CX-5 lights up, the car owner is advised to take the warning seriously. Skyactiv units are sensitive to the condition of liquids and other consumables. With timely maintenance of the internal combustion engine, it can easily withstand a mileage of 600 - 800 thousand kilometers without significant repairs. Many owners characterize the CX-5 engine as one of the most successful units in the crossover line.
Any description of the model includes a section where the characteristics of the Mazda CX 5 are indicated.
Design features, body type, engine size and power, transmission type, overall dimensions, fuel consumption, maximum speed - all this is for the Mazda CX 5 technical specifications.
Naturally, the main technical characteristic of the Mazda CX 5, because of which crossovers are chosen, is the amount of ground clearance.
First generation car
The first crossover of which was revealed at the Geneva Motor Show in 2011, made a huge impression on future buyers. The innovative SKYACTIV technology suite, including the body, the latest engines, gearboxes and chassis. According to the set of parameters, the Mazda CX 5 became the best in its class - the minimum CX 5, the aerodynamic characteristics of the Mazda CX 5, economy and environmental friendliness.
The technical characteristics of the CX 5 are amazing. The Mazda CX 5 engine has an amazing 14:1 compression ratio. And if for gasoline engines this is a record high value, then diesel, on the contrary, has a minimum value among serial engines. This compression ratio increased torque by 15% and reduced fuel consumption and emissions by 15%. The weight of the Mazda CX 5 engine has been reduced by 10%.
Powerful 2.5-liter gasoline engine with 192 hp in an all-wheel drive modification with automatic transmission, it accelerates the car to “hundreds” in 7.9 seconds. This indicator is slightly worse for the diesel version of 2.2 l 175 hp, where it takes 9.4 seconds to accelerate to 100 km / h. There are also all-wheel drive modifications, and the basic version with a 2.0-liter engine with 150 hp. and manual box.
The Mazda CX-5 has McPherson independent front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension with single-tube dampers and low-profile springs. Brakes CX 5 - disc front and rear, front - ventilated. The steering uses an electric booster with an increased gear ratio of 15.5, which provides high information content and the absence of vibration and shock on the steering wheel.
Specifications refer the crossover to the compact class: length - 4555 mm, width - 1840 mm, height - 1670 mm, wheelbase - 2700 mm, ground clearance - 210 mm.

The second generation of the model
Official sales of the first generation of the crossover in Russia began in 2012. The technical characteristics of the Mazda CX 5 2013 model year, produced by the plant in Vladivostok, differed slightly in engine power from their Japanese counterparts.
The next generation - Mazda CX 5 2014 restyling and its specifications were unveiled at the International Auto Show in America. The changes mainly affected the interior of the car. The automatic transmission was supplemented by the Sport mode and an electronic parking brake appeared.
The technical characteristics of the Mazda CX 5 in terms of the range of engines have not changed. The technical characteristics of the Mazda CX 5 2015 model year included three power units - two petrol 2 and 2.5 liters and one diesel 2.2 liters. The best efficiency characteristics of the diesel Mazda CX 5 are 4.9 l / 100 km on the highway and 6.4 l / 100 km in urban mode. Gasoline modifications consumed in the suburban mode - at least 5.3 liters, and in the city - 7.7 liters. Transmission options remain the same - 6-speed manual and automatic. Drive - front or full. The dynamic characteristics of the Mazda CX 5 remained at the same level. The maximum speed of the Mazda CX-5 with a manual transmission is 197 km/h. The maximum speed of the car with automatic transmission is 194 km / h. The minimum acceleration time from standstill to 100 km / h is 7.9 seconds with a 2.5 liter engine (192 hp) and all-wheel drive. The chassis of the CX-5 includes independent suspension (MacPherson strut and multi-link) and disc brakes (ventilated in front).

third generation
The next generation CX 5 was unveiled in Los Angeles at the end of 2016. Compared to the restyled model, the novelty has a completely redesigned appearance and interior space. Accordingly, the technical specifications have also changed.
In terms of overall dimensions: the length decreased to 4550 mm, the height increased to 1680 mm, the width of 1840 mm and the base of 2700 mm remained the same. The new body received 15% greater torsional rigidity due to the use of high-strength steels. In addition, the car's ground clearance is reduced to 200 mm. In terms of design, the new generation CX-5 crossover is similar to the new crossovers from the CX-3 and CX-9 lineup.
Power units and gearbox options repeat the equipment of the previous Mazda CX 5. Under the hood of the novelty for Russia, only SKYACTIVE-G gasoline engines with some changes. The power of the 2-liter engine is “strangled by taxes” to 150 hp. The 2.5-liter engine added power from 192 to 194 hp. This was achieved by reducing friction losses, changing the shape of pistons with oil scraper rings of an asymmetric profile. The drive is carried out on the front axle, as an alternative, all-wheel drive is offered with the AWD i-Activ clutch, which redistributes part of the thrust to the rear wheels.
The economy characteristics of the Mazda CX 5 2017 are considered the best in this category.
The suspension of the new CX-5 is built according to the usual scheme - front MacPherson strut and rear independent multi-link. Changes have been made to the design, in particular, shock absorbers of a larger diameter and hydraulic silent blocks are used in front. That reduces the buildup of the body and reduces the vibrations transmitted to the cabin when cornering.
The steering and braking systems have been upgraded here. So, the steering mechanism, also equipped with an electric booster, is now mounted rigidly on the subframe, and the brake system with all disc mechanisms has the function of holding the car even when the brake pedal is released.

Electronic safety systems - anti-lock braking system, brake force distribution system, brake assist system, electronic stability control and traction control. Also, the car is equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system, a high beam control system and other functions.
In 2014, the Mazda CX-5 installed security systems - ABS, ESP, an auxiliary braking system and an anti-slip system. The vehicle is equipped with a tire pressure drop indicator. The car is equipped with a start-stop system to reduce fuel consumption.
The list of equipment of the basic version of the Mazda CX-5 2017 includes front and side airbags, curtain airbags, anti-lock brakes, a stabilization system, tire pressure monitoring and an ERA-GLONASS emergency call device. The electronic systems available on the latest generation Mazda CX-5 include:
- The adaptive lighting system (Adaptive LED Headlamps) analyzes the situation on the road at night and automatically adjusts the light output.
- The Traffic Sign Recognition system reads speed limits and no entry signs and provides audible and visual alerts if they are violated.
- The Blind Spot Monitoring system helps the driver to control the traffic situation when trying to change lanes.
- The system of safe braking in the city (Advanced Smart City Brake Support) constantly monitors the distance to the object moving in front and the speed of approach to it. If the likelihood of a collision increases, the system will apply the brakes. Thus, the Advanced SCBS system minimizes the risk of collisions at speeds up to 80 km/h
- Lane-Keep Assist System (Lane-Keep Assist System) monitors your vehicle's position relative to lane markings and helps prevent you from accidentally leaving your lane.
- Driver Attention Alert
- G-Vectoring Control system, which improves the handling of the car and helps to more effectively control the car when cornering.

Mazda CX 5 is one of the innovative car models, the pride of which is a powerful advanced engine. These vehicles are equipped with two types of engines - diesel or gasoline - made using the same SKYACTIV technology.
On Internet forums, happy owners of the CX 5 do not spare flattering words about their car, noting its high performance, reliability, ergonomics and economy, as well as the excellent convenience of SKYACTIV technology. Without a doubt, it is the motor that is the strong point of this model.
If we talk about possible difficulties with the main power unit that controls the movement, then they can be conditionally divided into:
- operational problems associated directly with the motor;
- accessory difficulties caused by the problem of selecting the most suitable fuels and lubricants.
Difficulties associated with the selection of "consumables"
Mazda can be equipped with both a 2.2-liter sky-active engine, which is fueled by diesel, and two versions of gasoline engines for 2 liters and 2.5 liters, with a capacity of 150 and 192 horsepower, respectively.
The engine of such a high-tech boosted car is quite “capricious” in terms of “consumables”, due to its high sensitivity to the quality of oil, gasoline / diesel fuel.
It's no secret that lubricants designed to service certain design features of power units can have different qualities, on which the period of maintenance-free operation of a car often depends.
That is why engineering companies pay a lot of attention to fuels and lubricants during tests of automobile engines.
Only if you use the right fuel and motor oil, you can count on the fact that the CX 5 engine will work like a clock.
According to the recommendations of the manufacturer's experts, owners of this brand of car who want to visit a car service as rarely as possible should strictly adhere to the instructions contained in the instructions that come with the vehicle.
Diesel, or rather its refueling, requires special visual control from the car owner. The fact is that Mazda approved only diesel fuel that does not have a bluish-blue tint, which indicates the absence of harmful impurities.
Diesel, to a greater extent than a gasoline engine, is demanding in terms of "nutrition", therefore it is advisable to use only those types of fuel that have received an approving assessment from the manufacturer.
As for gasoline engines, both AI-95 and AI-98 are equally good for them. Of course, the higher the octane number, the better.
Otherwise, you should not count on the high-quality operation of the CX 5 power unit. Moreover, when using unsuitable gasoline, you can go to the service station a couple of months after purchasing a new car.
Only a well-functioning gasoline engine is able to provide the power laid down by the manufacturer.
So in order to avoid complaints about the operation of the car, you need to “feed” it only with what is indicated in the instructions.
This is very important, because when writing it, the company took into account the design features of the motors and conducted multiple studies to draw up recommendations.
Only recommended "consumables" are 100% consistent with all parts, assemblies and assemblies provided for by the car. In particular, using licensed oils that have received an approval rating, you can count on:
- minimal friction of parts of an automobile motor;
- neutralization of oxidation and corrosion products;
- leveling of possible emergency cases by the reliability of the system.
In particular, oil is the best fit for Mazda CX 5 gasoline engines. Mazda Ultra 5W-30 providing, subject to year-round use, economical fuel consumption, and Supra 0W-20, the main advantage of which is the wide-temperature mode. Diesel also consumes branded Mazda Ultra 5W-30, which may well be an alternative Supra 0W-30.
Thus, only the perfect selection of fuels and lubricants is able to ensure uninterrupted and long-term operation of the car.
By adhering to such rules, motorists have a number of clear advantages. Firstly, they get a car that does not create problems and troubles, and secondly, they make it possible to use it after a run of 100,000 km.
Business continuity CX 5: a real opportunity or an unattainable goal?
The uninterrupted operation of any car, and the Mazda CX 5 is no exception in this regard, can only be ensured by proper and timely care, both before and after the warranty period has expired.
Whether diesel or petrol, adjustments to the vehicle's most frequently involved systems must be carried out at regular intervals. It is believed that a diesel engine must undergo service maintenance, which includes not only an oil change, but also a number of other “procedures” after 10 thousand kilometers or once a year. For a gasoline engine, the actual figure is 15 thousand km.
Of course, other factors, such as driving style, road quality, climatic conditions, also affect the frequency of car service.
If you live in an area where there is no such thing as asphalt at all, or you are used to driving the gas pedal “to the floor” according to the principle, this does not mean at all that you can put an end to the Mazda CX 5. A first-class car can remain serviceable even after extreme operating conditions, you just need to at least double the frequency of maintenance.
Practice shows that diagnostics and oil changes are carried out by conscious motorists much ahead of schedule: every 7.5 thousand km for gasoline engines and after 5000 km for diesel engines.
CX 5 engine: possible difficulties and solutions
The fact that the correct selection of "consumables" is extremely important, many car owners have repeatedly seen from their own experience.
The fact that the engine (diesel or gasoline) is faulty and needs to be repaired may indicate:
- increased fuel consumption;
- increase in smoke;
- increased noise level;
- the appearance of vibrations;
- uneven work;
- falling revs.
Often, motorists have to deal with such problems precisely after using low-quality fuel or oil.
As you know, the function of regulating the supply of automotive fuel is assigned to the high pressure fuel pump (TNVD). The functionality of the entire motor depends on the correct operation of this part.
The high pressure fuel pump of a diesel engine, of which the injectors are an integral part, has a rather complex design. The use of low-quality "diesel fuel" leads to wear of the nozzles, which may be indicated by an increase in smoke.
If a trail of black smoke curls behind the car while driving, this is the first sign that incomplete combustion of the fuel is taking place. As a result, fuel consumption increases and engine speed drops. Excessively fast emptying of the tank may also indicate the presence of a leak in the injection pump.
In this case, the only correct solution is to change the pressure inside the vehicle's fuel system, which should ideally be serviced every 1000 hours of operation.
The injection gasoline engine is no less capricious in "food". In particular, when using gasoline with an octane rating of less than 95, problems such as reduced power, increased toxicity of exhaust gases and smoke are unlikely to be avoided.
Increased vibration and engine noise? This is a sure sign that the crankshaft bearing journal is wearing out, which means that the lubricant used does not provide the desired result. Although it is not excluded and failure of the valve.
Perhaps the weakest point of most motors of all Mazda brands is the low wear resistance of oil seals, although thermostats often fail, and long before 100,000 kilometers.
The frequency of maintenance of starters, water pumps, brake pads, filters and alternators again depends on the quality of the fuel. After purchasing Mazda cars, the least complaints about battery performance, although the reviews of car owners are mostly positive. The car is well positioned, even after an impressive mileage.
Auto engine parts (diesel/gasoline) Mazda CX 5 is often made brittle by an incorrectly built operation system. Fortunately, this problem is fixable.
The main thing when carrying out repairs involving the replacement of parts is to use certified spare parts, and in the absence of proper skills, trust maintenance to specialists.
In general, we can say about the engines of this brand of car that they meet high standards, and even after 100,000 kilometers.
The operational difficulties described above are, fortunately, infrequent, and if they do occur, it will not be difficult to eliminate them with the right approach.

Faults and engine repair Mazda Skyactive 2.5
The Mazda SkyActiv 2.5 engine, along with the version, was one of the first representatives of the SkyActive family. The motor came to replace the 2.3 and 2.5 liter engines, the MZR series of the L model.
The new large Skyactiv is a very modern engine, with a variable valve timing system on both Dual S-VT shafts, with hydraulic compensators, direct injection, light piston and pistons of a special shape, and with an installed 4-2-1 spider, calculated length, with a catalyst, the probability of detonation at SZh 13, tends to zero on 95th gasoline. In addition, the factory spider gives a very pleasant, sporty sound when accelerating, which the owners will definitely like)).
Like the two-liter SkyActiv, there is also a slight noise and vibration when warming up. There are no serious problems and shortcomings in the motor, the reason for this is their novelty, the cars simply did not have time to roll off any significant mileage.
Engine tuning Mazda 3 Skyactive 1.5 l.
Chip tuning SkyActiv 1.5
Tuning a 2.5 liter engine is similar to a liter skyactive, here you just knock out the catalyst and flash it, tuning companies promise about 200-205 hp at the output. It will not be possible to squeeze out anything more, installing a turbine on a SkyActiv 2.5 is a strange thing (due to the alteration of the BPG and the loss of the essence of the SkyActive technology) and financially very unprofitable, so we will limit ourselves to chip exhaust.
