    Yakima Mighty Mount Size for OEM Cross Bars?

    Curious if you found out which Mighty mount worked best. I might make a trip to REI this weekend and figure it out. I think the 9V's may work.

    Transmission issues?

    I'm also witnessing similar issues. 6th gear near 45mph and 5th gear at 35mph I notice it. Oddly tho switching to manual mode, the "hunting" disappears. Edit: Just wanted to update this post. I replaced all 6 spark plugs and the back 3 ignition coils. The problems I mentioned have disappeared...

    What's the easiest way to determine a CX-5 has the Tech package?

    I'm shopping for a 2014/15 CX-5 GT with Tech package and was curious what was the easiest way to determine if the car has it or not. I was under the impression that if the "AFS OFF" button on the left side is there that the car has all the other Tech features, i.e. Lane Departure Warning, Smart...

    Mazda to Recall 2.3m vehicles worldwide

    I was interested in a used Certified CX-5 GT and spoke with a Sales rep from the Mazda Dealership that was selling. I was told the car was placed in a Stop-Sale for this recall. He said he didn't know when the replacement parts or solution from Mazda would come. He mentioned all CX-5's with a...

    Looking into CX-5 for replacement for my Mazda3

    Former E46 ZHP coupe owner here. I'd be interested in your thoughts once you pull the trigger. I currently have a CX-9 which does well for a 4,000lb behemoth, but the 15mpg I've been averaging is killing me. Looking at the CX-5 for the wifey.

    Consensus on all weather mats

    I just got the Cabela/Weathertech mats and threw them in the car. They're labeled as Weathertech and came with Cabel's Trailgear stickers to place over top of the Weathertech emblems. The invoice listed the Weathertech part numbers as 441531 and 441532. I'm happy with them. Sent from...

    Need suggestion on overhead blu-ray player

    Back2grave, if you're looking for a roof mounted dvd player, Crutchfield sells this: At $599 it's pricey. If I went this route, it'd have to have at least one HDMI connection. Apple TV and a mini-router so you could stream from an iPhone/iPad would be pretty sweet. I also found this...

    Need suggestion on overhead blu-ray player

    I'm looking for one myself. This one in particular I like, but I want something to secure the iPad a bit more. In an accident that thing becomes a flying object. $38 on Amazon

    Consensus on all weather mats

    This thread's a few months old but thought I'd offer some other options. I found these mats made by Weathertech for Cabela's TrailGear brand. They look identical to the Weathertech Digital Floorliners but cheaper than anywhere else I've looked and also have free shipping, possibly no tax...

    Need suggestion on overhead blu-ray player

    How about an iPad attached to the headrest? That way it won't block your rear-view mirror.

    Can someone confirm that this CX-9 is indeed a Grand Touring trim?

    Wow. Thanks. Sounds like a potential showstopper. I'll ask the owner if this was done but I'm starting to have doubts that it was

    Can someone confirm that this CX-9 is indeed a Grand Touring trim?

    Thanks just_phil. I think I'll go ahead and move forward with the prepurchase inspection and take it from there. Any other tips on the things to look for that the shop might overlook is appreciated.

    Can someone confirm that this CX-9 is indeed a Grand Touring trim?

    Thanks just_phil. You're referring to rear license plate? The car's about an hour and a half away from me and I'm not certain the dealer would know specifically what trim it is.

    Can someone confirm that this CX-9 is indeed a Grand Touring trim?

    Hi all. I'm searching for a CX-9 now and came across this car. I understand the Grand Touring has the fog lights, leather, HIDs, 20" wheels and Navigation. This car is listed as a 2010 Grand Touring and I can confirm it does have fogs, BSM, TCS, two-tone leather and power lift gate. The radio...
