Once again, thanks for the insight. I connected the PAC again, and this time the sound on all the speakers worked fine... I still dont know what I did differently, but at least I knew it was working. (Im positive I connected it the same way.) I verified with a multimeter that the blue ON cable...

Thanks for the reply. Im going to try troubleshooting tomorrow. I agree that taking it to a pro audio shop is the way to go, but the 2 estimates for the install I received were $260 and $220 here in Southern California. Thats why I tried installing it first. The blue turn-on wire attached to...

Thanks for the response. As mentioned before, this is my first audio install. I suspect that I havent powered the PAC correctly. Based on research Ive done, my problem is most likely the little blue cable on the PAC. I had first connected it to a screw to the chassis as a ground... (silly to...

Hi everyone, I know this is an old thread, but Im hoping someone here can help. Using Dnut999s guide, I spent a few hours yesterday installing a powered subwoofer under the drivers seat (amp is built-in). I ran all the wiring (pretty sure correctly), but I should have taken pics. I have the...

The wife has been driving the 2016.5 GT since last March. She says the only imperfection is that the car doesn't include a glove compartment light. (More of an annoyance) I don't like the fact that navigation doesn't include real-time traffic updates. Overall, not deal breakers, but annoying...

hmmmmm. I'm too lazy to go to the car and quote the page, however, if I remember correctly, it says in the manual that the blue light indicates the car rapidly heating up the catalytic converter in order to reduce harmful hydrocarbon emissions. ...but then again, it DOES happen to be a blue...

In that case, nevermind. my bad

Did you not read the title of the thread? or the attached article?

hmmmmm I went for an oil change to the Mazda dealership yesterday and the service manager told me there weren't any recalls on my CX5. (2016.5 AWD) interesting though...

Just so you know, I appreciate that.

You make an excellent argument. If you transferred the STB to the 2.5, then I shouldn't have any problems. Thank you very much. did you buy yours from Amazon? eBay? any suggestions?

Okay. I'm just worried because they said since i have the 2.5, that their bar "only fits the 2.0 engine" still seems like a gamble... a $140-160 gamble

Hi everybody! this is my first post and I'm very excited to be here. I've been browsing considerably and absorbing your "knowledge" and opinions/likes/etc. for a few days now. I'm happy to be here and hope to keep learning from you guys. So I've been driving the new 2.5Skyactiv GT AWD 2016.5...
