    2014 CX-9 Bluetooth Audio anyone know anything about Folders?

    BT does not require folders to play music from phone. It is automatic. If paired properly car will play music on its own. If having issues either phone is not compatible or not working correctly. Samsung 5 still uses a sd card. So should be compatible as a phone storage phone is not as of yet...

    Skyactiv 6 auto - flush or drain?

    These transaxes are not sealed. They have dipsticks. In front under airbox. Even as a mazda senior tech i do not believe in lifetime fluid as everything breaks down at some point. FZ is really good quality. So it does last longer. We rec at dealer drain and fill only every 60 to 75k. Make sure...

It did not...

    2010 CX-7 Transmission problem

    actually what are the trans codes.

    how is audi and mazda 5 in the same category? two totally different tiers of cars. believe me I hate german engineering as much as anyone else. but you cant compare the two cars just because you own both. when going to look at new cars usually they consider same categories. cx-5 and crv make...

    tire size change

    very true. generally the bigger the tire the bigger the rotation. which means going smaller distances with same load. so less mileage. if you really want to up the width of your tire every shop or at least the dealers with have whats called a tire rolling diameter grid. will tell you what size...
