    2016.5 Just added Android Auto: A few questions

    Hi So I finally did the upgrade through the dealer. Couldn't be happier. Firstly v70 fixes a few things (such as BT album art) and is snappier. But wow Android Auto, love it. I noticed a few things and wanted to share them to see if any solution would exist that I missed while researching this...

    Got 2016.5 today - A few questions

    Hey all, I finally moved from my 2014 GS to a 2016.5 GS. So far, I love the upgrade, and for cheaper too! I have a few questions I was hoping to get answered. 1) I hear a squeak from the infotainement unit when I take some bumps. Very audible. I was thinking it would go away in a while since...

    [Rant] My CX-5 may be my last Mazda, even if I love to drive them

    Hi all, I just wanted to rant a little bit about Mazda. I know the entire car industry is kind of late in everything. But right now, as much as I loved my 2004 Mazda 3 and as much as I like my 2014 CX-5, it looks like this will be my last Mazda unless they wake the f*ck up. We're now over a...

    Automatic transmission decides to take a break

    (Fixed~ish) Automatic transmission decides to take a break As I was driving to get on the highway, I noticed the transmission was not changing gear. So I decided to go into manual mode to see at what gear I was. Turns out I was at "nothing" gear. No numbers were shown at all. The car lost all...

    Lost connection with the dashboard / gages

    Hi all, I am reaching out to you to see if anyone has the same problem as I do. My CX-5 had just a little short of one year usage when, while driving, I lost connection with the dashboard (the gauges). All warning lights that could light up were on, all gauges were put at 0 (RPM, Speed, etc.)...

    Problem : Windshield air position

    Hi all, The windshield air vent position (rightmost vent position) is not staying in place. It does stay rarely in place but if I take too many bumps, it switches back to "legs and windshield". It does not seem to have the "click" feel like other position do. Warranty call? Thank you.

    Problem : Wipers and snow

    Hi all, I got my CX-5 about a month and a half ago. Ever since, every single time I use the front wipers with light snow (or more), I have to spray juice because it only creates a thin layer of white dust-like film on the windshield. Could it be that the wipers arms are not tight enough? Thank...

    Homelink setup in Canada

    Hi again happy owners. In my GS, I made the dealer install a homelink auto-dimming mirror. Being in Canada, I have to deal with the rolling code security. I've read somewhere that Mazda refused to update their Homelink software until 2014; update being necessary for Homelink to see those...
