    Anyone have this voice control issue yet? Only on start-up

    50% of the time when I start the car, the voice control lady says "Voice Control Stopped" or something along those times, 2 times in a row. All I do its pressing the ignition button, nothing else. I can be in the radio or nav, doesnt matter. Its a 2014 CX-5 2.5L

    Mazda 3s 6 speed MANUAL?

    Since there has been zero word on any manual 2.5 I went and ordered a 2015 WRX 6MT limited with nav/keyless/speakers. Came out to 31800 before taxes and fees, which is a little more than the mazda would have been. Shame too, cause I would have went to the mazda. Had to factory order the WRX...

    Has anyone diagnosed a rattle near the glovebox?

    I have the same exact rattle. Service said they need a few hours to take apart the dash and find it. I lol'd, took my keys and left. I will call ahead of time and schedule a loaner for that to happen. Also needs an alignment, so ill do both.

    2014 CX5 2.5 fuel econ horrible

    Since starting this thread, it really is just my commute and NY/Long Island in general that is horrible on gas mileage. The highways are not smooth sailing, people drive like idiots here and brake constantly forcing me to brake as well. Our expressways are pretty much stop and go between the...

    5000 mile service on monday

    What should I expect so I don't get reamed at the dealer. How long will it take? How much should it cost? The dealer told me since its my first visit, the oil change is free. Thanks. Oh, also the only issue I have is an annoying rattle over the passenger dashboard. Is that something that...

    Mazda 3s 6 speed MANUAL?

    I test drove the 2.5 Auto mazda 3 and it wasn't so good. Shifts were pretty slow unless going WOT to redline. The car was generally slower than I anticipated. Hoping the manual relieves that.

    Mazda 3s 6 speed MANUAL?

    When is this coming out? I would be really interested as I am currently looking at the new 2015 WRX 6 speed. The Mazda 3 seems to be a much nicer fit and finish so I'd like to try it out. Any news on when its coming?

    2014 CX5 2.5 fuel econ horrible

    I live in NY...I would hope its US mph. I see you live in Florida, theres not much traffic and tons of open highway perhaps? Our highways are like your streets here in NY. You really cant get up to 55 while commuting.

    2014 CX5 2.5 fuel econ horrible

    I have a 2014 touring with all the options available. Although I regret not going to the grand for the wheels and heated leather seats. Anyway, My gas mileage over the 5000 miles Ive driven the car is a horrible 21.4 MPG. When I manually calculate each tank, its really like 20.8. How is every...

    2015 / 2016 Mazdaspeed3?

    If they can get a turbo on the 2.0 or even 2.5 and throw in the CX 5's lightweigt AWD system that car will be PURE win and kill the competitors in that segment. It will go directly at mercedes CLA, BMW 1/2 series, WRX, EVO, Audi A3/S3. Mazda has a legit chance of really being dominant in this...

    Just got a brand new 2014 CX-5 Touring

    im at 1900 miles now and still the same problems I originally had. I use Shell, Sunoco and BP regular gas....cant be the gas lol. Still shakes at idle. AC on or off. only 22.3 mpg on average Im convinced in an intake valve problem or something as simple as a loose motor mount.

    I have a 2014 CX-5...why is my build date on my frame sticker 12/12

    Yeah I got mine in July. I guess its been sitting quite some time...which is weird...7 months to move. The shake I am feeling is at idle when the car is at a red light...it cant be sitting in a high gear... Happens even in park. Could it be a motor mount?

    I have a 2014 CX-5...why is my build date on my frame sticker 12/12

    On the sticker of the drivers door frame, it says 12/12...where the tire and weight data are... What gives? This is a 2014 with the 2.5 Liter Did they build a bunch and retrofit them with the 2.5 after they didnt sell last year? Also, for people with the 2.5, after the car is warm and...
