I've been noticing a lot of dragonflies zooming up and hovering over my cx-5 hood and then flying away. Happens when I'm parked or even just stopped at a light or sign. I guess they think my car is a body of water or something. I have sonic-silver by the way.

These 100 degree summer days are killing me in my new CX-5, especially with the black interior. My previous car had tan interior so I assume that made a huge difference in temp. I'm really glad right now I opted for the moonroof package to vent out the hot air as soon as I get in the vehicle...

I have a 2016 Touring with the stock oem 17" Yokohama Geolandar tires. Just wondering what psi you all keep in your tires? The door jam sticker recommends 34 psi. I want a comfortable ride, but I also want long tire life. Should I go a bit higher than 34? Also as noted by another user here, be...

I have a new 2016 CX5 that's I've had for about 3 months. Yesterday I opened the trunk area. I have the oem rubber mat with the side pockets over the trunk. I rolled that forward, and folded open the trunk and noticed a bit of water condensation on the underside of the fold-up trunk floor. I...

How do you adjust to volume of the Nav voice separately from the stereo's volume?

I'm looking to get a set of the 4 door sill scuff plates. I like the OEM set but they are rather pricey at $105. Has anyone gotten a set of the cheaper ones on eBay from China? Wondering how the quality and durability is on those. I just want the regular stick-on sill plates, not the LED ones...

There's an empty space just to the direct left of my spare tire in the cargo tray. Its a long vertical straight slot. What, if anything, is supposed to be in that slot? All my other spaces are filled, including the 2 spaces for the tow hooks.

I just noticed that my new CX-5 doesn't say Mazda anywhere on the back. Are they all like this or am I missing a badge? Above the "CX-5" lettering on the left there's dealer name badging (cringe). How hard is it to take the dealer lettering off? Wondering if my dealer took off a Mazda badge and...

Just got my new CX5, and I'm super anal about preventing the first door dings on it. Glad I got sonic silver; dings will be less visible on it since all the CX-5's have a silver primer layer underneath the paint layer. Actually I've even just bought an OEM touch-up paint pen just in case. I've...

"Scotchguarded" my new CX-5 today. One 10oz aerosol can covered every inch of carpet, floors, seats, and cargo area in the vehicle. Glad it didn't have much of a chemical odor, but I kept all 5 doors open for about 15 min to air it out. I have a Touring with black cloth interior and this $6 can...

Can anyone recommend a brand of car cover that will protect my new CX5 from possible hail damage? Unfortunately I don't have a garage, and my Mazda Tribute was totaled a few years ago in a freak hail storm that rolled through here one spring. I don't want that happening again, especially to my...

So when will we start getting info about the 2017 CX-5's? I'm wondering what changes they will make? And when can we expect the 2017's to hit the dealerships? I'm ready to buy a 2016...but I waited so long...I'm wondering if I should just hold out to see what's new on the 2017. I understand...

I'm looking to buy a 2016 CX5. I had my heart set on getting a sonic silver and of course black interior is the only choice on that. I might get cloth on Touring or leather on GT, still undecided. Yesterday I was at an auto show and looked at the CX5s and CX3s they had there. Wow...the look of...

I've decided to get a 2016 FWD Touring in sonic silver, but trying to decide whether to opt up for the Bose Moonroof package or not. I think I could live with or without either of those options, and saving the $1100 is tempting. Just want to make sure I'm not making a mistake if I don't upgrade...

I'm looking to get a '16 Touring in sonic silver but a black cloth interior is the only choice. Actually I'm glad I'm not getting any color leather interior since it gets way too hot. I'm thinking that a light exterior like silver will help offset any interior heat issues? Anyone with a light...

From pics and videos online I noticed that the European CX-5's have a styrofoam storage compartment tray over the spare tire. Looks really handy to be able to store more emergency supplies, first aid, jumper cables, etc. I wonder why the US vehicles don't have this? Also does anyone know if you...

I recently test drove the 2016 CX-5 and I love just about everything about it so far. I'm very close to pulling the trigger on the purchase of a Touring. However, I'm still slightly concerned about rear visibility issues and blindspots on the vehicle. Do any of you long-term owners still have...

Can anyone recommend a full car cover that fits a CX-5 please. I specifically want one that will protect against hail damage. I previously had an SUV that was completely totaled in a severe hail storm, and I don't want that to happen again. Unfortunately I don't have a garage and the car has to...

I'm shopping for a new CUV. So far the 2016 Mazda CX-5 2.5L FWD Touring (approx. $25k) is at the top of my list which includes in alphabetical order: Chevy Trax Ford Escape Honda CR-V Honda HR-V (fall 2015) Hyundai Tucson Kia Sportage Mazda CX-3 (fall 2015) Mazda CX-5 Nissan Rogue Subaru...

Post some pics or give me some ideas of what you keep in that cubby? Wish they would have modified it for better use on the new 2016 since its no longer needed for the SD slot any more on that side. Its still kind of shallow and useless. Seems like anything would fall out, and that can be...
