Hobbit6003 3rd Gear July 2, 2016 Share July 2, 2016 Hi bro and sis, I am considering between CX5 Mazda and Harrier. Can bro share some opinion here? What is main concern need to take note? Any major problem so far?I see a lot grear box or start/stop problem...so far easy to solve? TQ Jeff Called my workshop and was told that this is a normal behaviou of start stop system in our rides. For the past two days, the start stop had been working. As for gearbox problem, I'm quite sure there'll be lemons in anything we buy, heng suay la. We only hear from people with complains, but we never hear from people with no problems. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
