    Hi all

    1. NAV unit works just fine - I use it to input an address, voice guidance muted, so I don't have to glance at my phone all the time. What other uses are there for the Navigation??? I don't use I-anything, so don't know about that. Pandora, and regular radio work just fine - no issues...

    Actual MPG with your 2014 Mazda6

    I'm convinced it is related to LA driving style, constant congestion and overall caffeinated way people drive here. Is Sherman Oaks a suburb? I count is as just "Los Angeles"

    Current owners: What would you tell a new buyer?

    Not long ago, power brakes, steering, windows, a/c, etc where considered "crazy "creature comforts"". the cheapest way is not to get a vehicle at all. stop being retrograde. For example, $900 for radar cruise control for 10 years is $90 a year, $7.5 a month!!! $7.5 a month for significantly...

    Current owners: What would you tell a new buyer?

    I'd consider leasing it first. The lease finance rate is very low, mine is equivalent to 0.9%. I have a Grand Touring which, with destination charge, stickered at $31,290. At $1,400 out of my pocket, I'm at $322 ($295+tax (9.5% in CA) a month for the next 3 years. After 3 years, I can buy my...

    Rattle

    It is very good that you mentioned this problem to the dealer, and even left them your car for a couple of days to "figure it out". I think this is how the factory comes out with TSBs - when they see a log of complaints, all pertaining to a similar issue. I just had a first service done 3...

    Rattle

    I think this is a futile attempt taking it to the dealer, and saying: "rattle somewhere there, on certain occasions - fix it". I looked at SkyActiv TSBs, most of them are for CX5, and quiet a few deal with different kin if rattles. You can look through them yourself. Most of the fixes that the...
