    2017 CX-5 Rattle noise at 1200-1400 RPM only when A/C running

    All, I've got a rattle-like noise at 1200-1400 RPM coming from the engine bay but only when the A/C is running. A/C itself is working fine. When the rattle can be heard, I can turn off the A/C and the rattle stops. Assuming it's A/C related, is the compressor going bad? Or is it belt...

    I really want to get some red spline lug nuts

    To go with my Soul Red 2017. But after reading reviews on Amazon (same lug nuts available on eBay), it looks like whether they're made of aluminum or steel, the anodized color easily scratches/chips, even when tightening/loosening with hand tools.

    2017 and Valentine One

I've got an old Valentine One that is unusable because of all the K-band radar gear on other vehicles, and am considering getting an upgraded V1...

    2017 Door sill/scuff plates

    Anyone else wish Mazda would make some available other than the expensive LED ones? I've checked eBay, and there are some aftermarket ones available, and they claim they will fit the 2017, but looking at them, I don't think they will because of the non-level "step" in the sill of the 2017.

    Guys, I believe I have all the settings set correctly to received text messages via my iPhone, but new texts do not appear on my CX-5's screen. Any idea what I might have missed as far as setting it up?

    2017 CX-5 Electric Power Steering

    So I was inspecting the engine bay of my new 2017 CX-5 GT last night and could not find the power steering fluid reservoir. This may be a dumb question, and I'm not familiar with electric power steering, but is the use of power steering fluid no longer needed?
