    Mazda CX-7 Review, For Sale, Specs, Models & News in Australia

    FROM
    $6,160

    The Mazda CX-7 is a midsize SUV that was sold in Australia between 2006 and 2012.

    Rivalling the Toyota Rav4, Holden Captiva, Mitsubishi Outlander, and Nissan X-Trail, the CX-7 aimed to combine the power of a hot-hatch with the practicality of an SUV.

    Initially sold with a 2.3-litre turbo-petrol engine straight out of the Mazda3 MPS, the CX-7 was later offered with an efficiency-oriented turbo-diesel and more affordable naturally-aspirated petrol; broadening the range from the $6,160 CX-7 Diesel Sports (4x4) to the $11,550 CX-7 Classic Sports (4x4) in later years.

    Mazda CX-7 FAQs

    My Mazda CX-7 won't move in reverse

    If the car still has drive in the forward gears, but refuses to drive in reverse, it’s a reasonable bet that there’s wear or damage to the transmission’s intrinsic bits that select or control reverse gear. If the transmission was simply low on fluid or had a bad pump or torque converter, it wouldn’t go anywhere in either direction.

    A transmission specialist will probably have seen this problem before and will be able to advise of the extent of the damage. Either way, don’t drive the car any farther as you may do more damage.

    Toyota Kluger: What SUV would have less cabin noise?

    So many things affect road noise, which makes it difficult to fix. There’s the road surface itself, the tyres, and the noise insulation in the vehicle. The Honda CR-V might well be quieter, but could still be noisy on the roads you drive on. If the road noise is the thing that is making you switch vehicles, then it might be worth talking to a tyre dealer about a tyre that might be quieter than the ones on your Kluger. If you want to go down that road, you could try a Mazda CX-5 or CX-7, a Kia Sorento or Sportage, Toyota RAV4.
