    Bluetooth...royal pos?

    It's useless trying to resolve contact download issue. It's a feature of the latest Mazda headunit. Mine does it too and I gave contacted EU Mazda Handsfree support about a month ago and this is the reply I got from them:-- Thank you for your request. The automatic download of the phonebook...

    Door Lock Button - Is there an option to Add a Backlight?

    You are right. There is no door lock button for us in the EU and there no option to get the car to auto lock itself when driving. Also only the driver's window switch is illuminated on the driver side and the passenger window switch on the front passenger side.

    Resuming Playback with 2014 CX-5 GT Tech Stereo and other issues

    Are you sure that there is actually a difference in hardware between the 2013 and the current unit? I'm not too sure that the problem is a cut in power to the head unit when the car is switched off because otherwise the unit will also loose the memorised radio stations and possibly also the...

    Connecting via Bluetooth - Contact List Problem

    I went to the dealer last week and asked him to try and connect to the BT of another car and see if the same thing happens but he said that this is not possible and would not let me. Instead he booked my car for inspection for next Wednesday. However now I am 100% sure that there is no fault...

    Connecting via Bluetooth - Contact List Problem

    I have contacted Mazda Handsfree support by sending them an email and to my great surprise this is the reply I got: Dear Mr. Cassar, Thank you for your request. The automatic download of the phonebook when connecting the phone is a specification of the Handsfree system. Unfortunately this...

    Connecting via Bluetooth - Contact List Problem

    I have 97 contacts and download takes much more than 10 secs. I have multiple numbers for most contacts. Wonder if that might be causing some problems.

    Connecting via Bluetooth - Contact List Problem

    Today I tried my brother's android phone and same result. It will download the contact list as soon as you disconnect and reconnect the BT connection either by switching off the car or else by switching off BT on the mobile. What I realised is that if you are quick enough and press the cancel...

    Connecting via Bluetooth - Contact List Problem

    It would be quite nice of you if you can check out the iphone 5s for me. Mine (iPhone 4S) syncs every time I switch on my car and takes up to a minute to do so. My wife's Merc stores the contact list and syncs it only if asked to do so. My intention here is not to criticise. Just want to know if...

    Connecting via Bluetooth - Contact List Problem

    So no one else is having this problem? Every time I connect my iPhone 4s it spends a minute synchronizing. If I disable synchronization on my mobile then the contact list is not available in the car. Seems liike the contact list is not stored in the car stereo and is downloaded every time. Is...

    So this happened...

    Luckily you ended up with just a blown fuse and didn't fry any electronics by using a high voltage source to jump start.

    2014 GT bluetooth stopped working... how to factory reset?

    I would have pulled out the fuse instead of disconnecting the battery. But disconnecting the battery other things will reset, like the TPMS and iStop function.

    If that was the case with me I'll try to find a way to disable getting messages on my mobile phone let alone download them to my car. (bang)(bang)(bang)
