From experience, I think it human detection is based on 2 things, 1) steering wheel movement and 2) sensors placed just above the 3 and 6 spokes of the steering wheel.

FYI - For my 2017 CX-5 that was experiencing lots of vibration while the engine was cold (very noticeable at sub -15 degree celsius temperature outside), my local Dealer said Mazda Canada's fix is to to replace the lower transmission mount, which they did under warranty.

Amazing, Thanks so much :)

Android Auto & Car Play Coming Confirmed Seems like 2018 and 2019, crappy part is it seems it might be something you have to pay extra for, vs download onto a USB stick-type upgrade. "Starting this fall, those current owners, if their car or SUV is equipped with the Mazda Connect system, will...

Yes, the cheap plastic on the sides of the center storage bin gets 'muffed' up for lack of a better word by the back of the front seat belt buckles. In my GS, the center plastic is black and 'muffed' white. I rubbed as much as I could off using like interior cleaners, but there is forever...

Wow, didn't realize you were in Russia. It would cost me a pretty penny to get those shopped to North America lol

What brand and model are these rims?

Have OEM 17" rims for sale if you are near Ottawa. Or willing to pay for shipping. They are band new, only 13 km on them.

From previous experience lowering cars, at a minimum, upgrade your front strut and rear shock to one that is meant for lowered cars/shorter springs/progressive spring rates. When you lower your car with springs without changing your OEM struts/shocks, the shorter/harder springs will wear out...

Posted another solution here (scroll down) that works wonderfully. https://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?123862786-2017-CX-5-GT-wipers-sucks/page4

I would recommend the OEM Premium floor mats if you want amazing coverage. But I noticed you're in San Fran., so you probably don't have to worry about crappy weather getting into the car (e.g. snow/slush). Anything aftermarket mat will probably work fine for your climate (i.e. that you cut to...

Custom Method Using OEM Wiper Plastic Adapter & Universal Wiper Blade (Michelin Stealth in this case) Pic: Mazda's Blade with their plastic adapter piece. Step 1: Use your finger to pry under the plastic on both sides of the blade and remove the plastic piece. Pic: This is the plastic...

Awesome, Thanks for the link to the post with pics. I'll try again knowing this now.

Hi, Has anybody been able to remove the license plate light bulb cover on a 2017/18? I've tried prying it off with a flat head screw driver (placing it between the plastic housing and the black rubber), but have not had any luck. Is there a trick to it? Thanks in advance for any advice

OK, so I will take pictures of the exact piece and process and post next time (probably in 4 months after winter) But using some pics off the internet (I couldn't find the exact adapter that comes with the Michelin) I'll try to explain/show. The actual problem is that the universal adapters...

If you have the funds for it, you can import a chrome lip kit that goes all around the car (front bumper, side skirts, & rear bumper) for the current gen CX-5. Try contacting a Mazda Australia dealer. KUROI SPORTS PACK - https://www.mazda.com.au/accessory-pack/KFACKSP

I agree the OEM wipers are no good. Solution: I was able to fit the Michelin Stealth blade (https://ca.michelin-lifestyle.com/en/michelin-stealth-wiper-blade-1) by trimming (cutting off) very small amounts of the plastic EZ Lock adapter that it comes with. Just used an exacto knife. Also...

For what it's worth, I have a set of WS80's on my 328xi since 2015/16 winter (so will last 3 winter seasons, if not 4), I live and drive all over Ottawa and take lots of 400-500 km road trips in Ontario/Quebec to ski hills, and plan on getting the WS80's for the 2017 CX-5 GS AWD as well this...

Thanks guys, I'm going to try both those apps. Much appreciated
