no such luck as of yet - the only thing i can think of is that my '09 mazda3 had a sirius branded radio whereas the '16.5 cx-5 it's an xm branded one...not sure how or why this would make a difference unless their satellites have different features

I personally hate dash/windshield mounts so in my 16.5 my ghetto rig is to simply snake a usb cable out of the armrest , connect to the phone & leave on the little console platform resting on an angle in front of the usb slots...sucks that we have to resort to this ish but it works, iphone fits...

I'm not driving a bus

This x1000 - on my '09 3 drivers side floor mat wore a hole after just over 2 months, service manager tried to play the wear & tear game claiming it was a heel pointer, once I told him I'm the only one driving the car, only wear sneakers and started questioning the quality of the vehicle and...

Thanks guys - on a whim I opened & closed the trunk before heading into work, at lunchtime it worked as if there was never a problem. No idea if this did anything or it was just a software glitch, we'll see if the problem resurfaces.

smell lasted about 500 miles for me on my '16.5 - and the fan thing is totally normal, i admittedly freaked the first time i noticed it but as i've since learned it's supposed to do that

I have to admit it's tempting - saw a '16.5 like mine the other day with blacked out rims & badges and it was really nice

i had no idea what a GS was (not a model here in the US) so I went on Mazda's Canada site to look...that's when i discovered the slick wheel options you guys get...I'm officially convinced Mazda hates Americans

go into add/edit favorites at the top of the list and you can order them any way you like - it appears it's always going to be a mix of xm/fm/etc but at least you can put them in a grouping that makes sense to you

i'm in the same boat - it's a matter of hours before that yellowish hue is back

still my favorite car salesman joke: "i can get you a great deal on that model but you'll have to take it in the brown"
