My 2010 Mazda 3 GT has a blown headlight and the assembly has condensation inside it. Obviously it's not sealed. My dealer said it will cost ~ $900 Canadian for a new assembly. It has the levelling adjustment as original equipment. I see the Canadian model (daylight running lights, with self...

I am posting from my iPhone because the forum will not load on my Mac running the latest operating system and the latest version of Safari. I have the coloured beach ball spinning and have had so for five minutes. This has happened each time Ive tried to read the forums recently. I cant see...

About a month ago I had the fuel filler recall item fixed while my vehicle was in for routine service. Since then I have sometimes smelled a faint gasoline smell inside the vehicle. I can see no leaks. The smell is faint but persistent. I'm taking it in to have the dealer's service department...

I will seldom drive my CX-5 off road, and seldom will again. But last week I avoided a 1 hour delay by turning out of a dead-stop traffic jam several miles long and driving through a deep ditch to a parallel road with zero traffic. Three 4wd vehicles did this before I tried it. 2 breezed through...

The NAV in my 2015 CX-5 has been fully functional in the year since I bought the car used (1 year old when purchased). I converted ownership of the NAV system just after I bought it and have received reminders from TomTom to update the maps. On a recent trip I tried entering a new destination...

When I was a starving student I did all my own work on cars, but from the time I bought my first new car, I've have 90% of the maintenance and repairs done at dealers. I think this has the following advantages when you find a good dealer: They work only on one brand of car, and have deep...

My 2015 has 21,500 km on it. The existing tires show no signs of uneven wear. However, the tire store "recommends" I have the alignment done with the new tire installation. I have the feeling they sell the tires for a very low price intending to make up the profit on the sale with extra...

225/55H-19 on sale at Canadian Tire for $Can 183.97 (~$134.30 US). Back ordered but worth the wait at that price.

My 2015 has adaptive headlights. It's an AWD GT. I can see the headlights changing direction as I drive on a dark, winding road, but I'm not sure they're both "adapting". Driving straight with the lights on low beam, I can see a sharp cutoff for low beam, and both headlights seem to be aligned...

I wondered how good/bad the TomTom nav system was in my 2015. I've been using a Garmin NUVI for 5 years, and got quite accustomed to it. I've also used Waze (a smartphone app with traffic reporting) and the iPhone Drive app that comes with all iPhones. Recently I had to drive across town at...

I bought a Vertex bike rack that fastens to my trailer hitch. The bolt hole in the tongue of the rack is threaded so the rack can be very tightly bolted through a hole in the hitch receiver. When properly torqued on, it holds my bike very securely. And with my Abus Granite U-lock, I can lock the...

Can't seem to find these. Anyone know where they can be downloaded? UPDATED: FOUND

I bought a 2015 CX-5 from a Mazda dealer in April 2015. It was the service manager's personal vehicle for a year. Recently the Nav unit prompted me to download free upgrades. I installed TomTom home on my computer, removed the card from my Mazda, and inserted it in my computer. It started...
