Mazda CX-5 Mechanical Review

Let's learn how automotive technology works by taking an angle grinder and disassembling ALL parts of the car! This includes the engine, transmission, hybrid, EV, fuel delivery, air induction, exhaust, steering, suspension, electronics, brakes, safety and auto body systems. The best way to grasp the engineering mindset and learn how cars work is by seeing it for yourself! My approach is balanced between my experience as a professional mechanical engineer with hands-on, easy to understand visual tutorials. This gives you a broad overview of how components fit and work together in a subsystem, technical knowledge, and the reasoning why components were designed in a certain way to begin with. Having this understanding will help you repair your car, make the right decisions and save money! Knowledge is power, and by sharing this knowledge we can all learn, discuss and benefit. Enjoy!

Video Description
Here's a look under the hood and underneath the Mazda CX-5 cross-over utility vehicle. In this video we take a deep dive into the engine, transmission, cooling, exhaust, suspension, braking and electrical setup of the Mazda CX-5. The Mazda CX-5 is based on the Mazda 3's platform, using the same naturally aspirated 2.5L SKYACTIV-G engine and 6 speed automatic transmission. It is a FWD power-train setup with optional AWD. Overall, the Mazda's mechanicals are a step down on technology and innovation compared to newer rivals in its class, however that lends well to the purists who deem simplicity and projected reliability over the latest features, performance or trends.
