    Vinyl decals/stickers...what do you think about these stripes?

    I'm been wanting to do something to my CX-5 for quite a while now. I had thought about a complete wrap but the price was almost $4k. Then I thought about stripes or graphics. Most of what I found looked cartoonish and not what I wanted, but then saw these...

    Rattle noise coming from rear hatch - SOLVED

    On mine they didn't have to take the spoiler off so it wasn't the black inserts on the sides. I was told that to access the loose nuts they just had to remove the long horizontal piece at the top of the interior of the hatch.

    Rattle noise coming from rear hatch - SOLVED

    It literally sounded like I had an old dot matrix printer going off in the cargo area!

    Rattle noise coming from rear hatch - SOLVED

    Here is an .mp3 file of the noise. Ignore the white/road noise and you will clearly hear the high pitched rattling and squeeking that was being caused by the loose spoiler. It's been a few days now and I haven't heard a peep!

    Rattle noise coming from rear hatch - SOLVED

    Yes, very similar to that post and I did see that post, however, I noticed that my entire spoiler was loose and moving not just the inserts. It could be that upon removal and reinstallation either problem is solved.

    Rattle noise coming from rear hatch - SOLVED

    Hi guys, I'm posting this information here just in case someone ever has a problem with their CX-5 similar to mine. I started to hear a slight rattle coming from the rear of my car about 2 months after I purchased it. I wouldn't hear the noise all the time...just occasionally when going over...

    When do you think Blue Book and NADA values will be available for used 2014's?

    Thanks. I'm thinking the finance companies don't use edmunds though.

    When do you think Blue Book and NADA values will be available for used 2014's?

    Long story short, when I purchased my 2014 CX-5 in July 2013 I got a pretty high interest rate. I justified it to myself by paying extra or making double payments. Now I'm getting offers to refinance my car loan to a lower rate but it can't be done because my model year is too new and used...

    How safe would it be to tow a Miata on a dolly with a CX-5?

    Hi guys, I just inherited an 96 miata that's about 100 miles from my house. I'm thinking of how I can get it here. It's not in good enough shape to drive it here. I'm leaning towards just renting a pickup from uhaual along with a dolly and doing that, but I was wondering if the cx-5 would be...

    Can't stand driving with both rear windows down....ear popping air vibrating sound?

    Well it's good to know that it's not just me! I've never had a 4 door car before so I've never experienced this before. I don't have a sunroof. I guess I'll learn to just roll the front windows down instead.

    Can't stand driving with both rear windows down....ear popping air vibrating sound?

    I'm not sure what the issue is, but whenever I try to drive with both rear windows down....like on a cool day (I'm in Florida and December is windows down time), the wind seems to be caught in the car in a strange way and causes a bizarre, thumping frequency that feels like it's going to pop my...

    How many miles do you have?

    I've got 3800 miles on it so far and I purchased on July 17th....so I'm averaging about 92 miles a day. Not good :-( That's going to put me at almost 34k miles in one year!
