Nope, you are 100% right sir! I've never had to correct someone else's work done to any of my vehicles. Why is that? Because I do it ALL myself and I've never screwed any of that work up. Never. I...

That's funny right there! Mazda techs also have the correct parts at hand, right there in the shop, right? Oh wait...
My point here is that IF the contacts on the card/card reader are at fault, it's VERY simple to apply contact cleaner to said contacts to see if this corrects the issue. If the issue goes away then...
I agree 100%! The less your car sees of the dealer the better off you are. If the dealer never sees your car then they won't ever have a chance to screw something up.
I agree that non ethanal gas is the way to go. Down here in the US just because the gas is 'premium' (higher octane) is no indication that the fuel is ethanal free. It all depends on the gas station...
If the system is rebooting on it's own, and it's because of the firmware not being up to the latest version, then all systems that don't have the latest firmware updates would exbibit this same...

With the car off eject the Nav SD card and then start the car, see if your issues go away.
If the issues do go away then either your SD card is bad or, more likely, the connections between the SD...
Thanks for your permission. Good luck with the hot water, low pressure, and good detergent in the middle of winter.
That's a bit extreme isn't it? If care it taken a pressure washer can be used to safely wash just about anything. I've been using pressure washers for a LONG time and other than my finger (one time)...
Can someone explain to me how and why Ford would call this thing a 'Mustang'?

Wait a minute! They drill holes in your car's sheet metal and install rivets? What type of metal are those rivets made from?
And those holes inside of the rivet go inside of the sheet metal right,...
I visited the dealer as I mentioned above. They attempted to update my old SD card on their system and could not. I left with a new card installed. I haven't updated it yet since I haven't driven the...
This ^^^^
So, I called Mazda Connect support yesterday about the above.
After asking me some questions it was determined that my SD card is somehow bad, even though it works in the car, it won't update.

Premium gas stays fresh longer? That's the first time I've ever heard this. Care to explain?
You're other tips are spot on.
Yesterday I did the map updates on both my 2016.5 CX-5 and my 2016 MX-5. The CX came with factory nav (warranty is almost up and this is my 3rd update), the MX has nav from the SD card purchased from...

Nighttime must make that a bit challenging?
15 liters! That's a lot of coolant!!! I bought the same stuff from Amazon but it was a 5 liter jug for $35. It seems that this jug is no longer available from Amazon.

Unless it's a 'touchless' car wash your risking your paint. Even then, the chemicals used are very unfriendly to your paint and most certainly to any wax you may have on the car.
In the winter...
Don't stare too hard though and make sure you're looking at the right car. I ended up unlocking the car next to mine because I was looking at that car instead of mine.
Nope, but you'll get better radio reception.
