    Black Mesh Grille Inserts - Anyone Try These?

    The vendor also offers a variation of this product that does not obscure the front parking sensors (which BTW, are n/a in North America as far as I know).

    Black Mesh Grille Inserts - Anyone Try These?

    I think it looks pretty good. I would consider them if they could also be used for winter baffling in our colder climate, here in the great white north; perhaps by backing the screening with some type of fabric or synthetic sheeting. I've read on another thread that the winter baffling could...

    Yes there will be fix with the Resuming Playback Issue on the CX5 Rdio

    I don't think this module replacement for the referenced TSB is going to work for me (if they are indeed related); as the TSB indicates that it is applicable for CX-5's manufactured until October 11, 2014 whereas mine was produced after that date. Unless this module fix is completely new and...

    CX-5 Photos - Share your shots with us!

    Hi Ashkid, Welcome. I think you'll be happy with the change to the CX-5. I recently made the switch from a 2010 MDX and am loving the change. In fuel alone, I am saving 40% between no longer needing to fuel with premium and the better gas mileage. BTW, where did you source your LED DRL's...

    Full Cargo Liner

    I, like some of the others in this forum, have the full OEM cargo liner and then have the OEM cargo tray over top the liner for extra spill and puncture protection. We're a hockey family and are carrying around hockey equipment and sticks with the rear seats up and down all the time. The...

    Center Console Cup Holder

    CX-5 Oil Change with Filter

    I live in Canada as well and the good news is that oilchangekits.com will ship to Canada (which is often not the case for online vendors); however, the cheapest shipping option offered is UPS standard at US$74.20 (wow!). Therefore, kit @ US$48.20 + shipping @US$74.20 = US$122.40; converted to...

    How many Brits? Fancy a cuppa?

    If I understand your situation correctly, I can think of one situation in which the activation of the hand (parking) brake results in the switching off of all of the external lights as being helpful/necessary (and which I believe has been SOP in North America cars since I can remember). When...

    Yes there will be fix with the Resuming Playback Issue on the CX5 Rdio

    Sorry, I don't mean to beat a dead horse; however, my post was not directed to those who had already signed the petition; but, was in response to the post I quoted, which asked for the best way to communicate this issue to Mazda. I don't have a vested interest in having the petition signed...

    Yes there will be fix with the Resuming Playback Issue on the CX5 Rdio

    I've posted this link before; but, for those of you not yet aware of it and to save others from having to try to find it, here is a link to a petition for Mazda to address and repair the head unit issues: https://www.change.org/petitions/maz...he-2014-mazda6 Despite the Mazda 6 reference, if...

    About to pull the trigger on the CX-5 but worried about issues

    I don't think the point is not that it "is not the best system out there", I think the point is that it does not work as advertised. It is not just the USB issues but also the SMS ("texting") functions that do not work as advertised. I purchased the vehicle, based on what was advertised and...

    Phone Mount for Navigation

    Hi Atomic, I realize this reply is a little late, given the date of your post; however, I was wondering if you could post a pic of your mount in place/use in the CX-5. I've had my CX-5 for about a month now and liked the Mountek CD player mount but was worried about access to the touch...
