    K&N Typhoon Intake System on CX-5?

    I put the AEM filter in my 2017 and it performs almost exactly like you said. There's a slight dip in overall mpg so far, bit i haven't seen it it improves on highway usage. Slightly more reactive throttle and responsiveness. Easy install with low cost and worth while performance.

    2017 cx5 Bose package infotainment issues

    Thanks for the follow up, team. It still has a few issues with making a call while on Bluetooth. I have to unpair, then pair to make it work. It's a pain for sure.

    2017 cx5 Bose package infotainment issues

    Mazda dudes, I'm having the oddest issues happen with my Bluetooth connectivity. It's a 2017 cx5 Bose package info center. The unit takes a long time to register my Bluetooth phone. Long time being 1:30 or more. Coming from another car that corrected in seconds, it seems odd a newer car...

    License Plate LED install help CX5 2017

    I'll take another look at this. I was more or less looking for confirmation that someone got it done. If video exists of this, I'd be grateful, but if not - I'll try to be brave and not snap the lens. Here goes nothing...

    License Plate LED install help CX5 2017

    I looked at the manual and it says to simply pry something under the bottom of the light housing and pop them off. I can say I applied enough pressure that I was certain I was going to break something if I continued. Does anyone have a video or has anyone tried getting the license plate light...

    The CX-5 LED Lighting Thread

    2017 CX5 Touring - need help with getting access to the license plate lights. I checked the manual and it says just wedge under the lens and firmly lift them off. Now, perhaps it's just me, but I'm scared as hell I'm going to break these lenses off or snap the arms off them. Has anyone done...

    vs Forester?

    I just left my 2012 Subaru Forester Premium X. I can say it was a good car, but far from great. The few times I took it off-road or into some very bad weather, it performed magnificently. The only thing is that I only had a few opportunities to do it. In hind sight, the car did exactly what...

    2017 CX-5 Floor liners

    thanks for asking this. I'm having the hardest time choosing a good mat for my car, too. I wondered this same question. I guess I'll add to it that I'm looking at the 3DMaxpider version of the floor mats for my CX5, 2017. It's the damndest thing that no one has them. Anyone got any suggestions?

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    It is a CX-5 2017, Touring. I've bought 5 cars now and this is the first one I felt super solid on. Did my homework, made a good trade and feel encouraged that this is the right car. Also, to Kedis - thanks for letting me know on that i-Active over snow, too. That was one of my main...

    2017 CX5, AWD, Touring option for exhaust upgrade

    Alright. Deal is if you spot I've before me let me know. If I spot one before you, I'm be sure to let you know. Japanese exhaust would be my preference, but the American companies have some big sound. It all comes down to what you love.

    2017 CX5, AWD, Touring option for exhaust upgrade

    Man! Super helpful! Thank you for your quick input. I will say the forum here is much more sincere and quick to assist (I think maturity may be a factor?) here. I would agree on the Y factor for the exhaust. I liked having a single port for exhaust when it's built for it, but once it's got...

    2017 CX5, AWD, Touring option for exhaust upgrade

    MazdaDude - thanks for the reference. How long is it before you've seen them catch up with aftermarket items for these vehicles? Also, is the 2017 considered a redesign and new generation or a refresh?

    2017 CX5, AWD, Touring option for exhaust upgrade

    Hello Forum members! Question first: What are the options available for a 2017 CX5 for an exhaust? Background: I'm brand spankin' new to the world of Mazda. Well, not "spankin' new" as my wife purchased a CX3 in July last year and I admit I drove it around every chance I could get. I have...

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    2017 CX5 AWD, Touring, Preferred Package ** Just got through the sales of mine and landed the vehicle for $28,500. Not sure if that's the greatest deal in the world, but I certainly felt it was well worth every penny considering other options and package in this cars class. Switched myself...
