I've got an 08 GS, so it is missing the extra two tweeters in the front (they are standard on the GT model). I was cleaning it yesterday and popped off one of the plastic covers by accident and it pretty much looks like it is wired and ready to go. The ones from mazda are about a hundred bucks...

I've got a set of the factory racks for my 2008 mazda 5, and up until this xmas we've been using an el cheapo (on sale at cdn tire for 90 bucks cheap for you other canucks on the forum) cargo box for the past 6 years on our vehicles. Well, this box has done its duty, but with the locks busted...

I believe this may have been mentioned in another thread a while ago, but what is with the uneven positions of the LED tailights on the (cdn) GT models? I've seen 4 GTs in the area that I live, and on every one of them the string of lights were not straight. I saw one this morning while...

Yeah, I saw an old thread on this subject, but thought I would start a new one. This is my first vehicle with auto-sensing wipers and so far I'm not overly impressed, at least with how it handles snow. I find even at the lowest sensitiviy setting, the wipers are being activated too often...

So what has been your experience in the average break-in period for the mazda5 engine in regards to potential improvements in fuel efficiency? In my own limited exerperince with new cars, I noticed a gradual increase in fuel efficiency with our previous vehicles (an acura and a toyota) once...

I've noticed when using the auto climate control on our 2008 mazda5 that the light for the A/C turns on automatically. I find this a bit odd in the winter when I've got the temperature set pretty high; I normally end up turning the A/C off since it just doesn't seem right. Is the compressor or...

I noticed on our 2008 GS that the brightness control on the instrument cluster is a little odd. There does not appear to be any fine control of the brightness between the highest setting (when you turn it all the way and it beeps) and the one just below it. I find the brightess setting too...

Anybody know if there is a third party set of roof racks you can get for a 2008 mazda 5 that fit on to the roof like the factory mazda ones? $464 (cdn) for the ones from the dealer sounds a bit pricey. I know I can get a set of Thules or Yakimas (which are actually better) for a bit less, but...

Under the Shopping Tools / Loan Financing section of the mazda.ca website. They are lower than I thought they would be. 24 - 36 months 1.9% 48 - 60 months 2.9% 72 months 3.9%

Go to www.mazda.ca, select the mazda5, and than click on the 'compare the mazda5' link on the right side of the page. On the popup window, you can select 2008 as the model year. Click 'continue' and select any competitor, and than the 'compare the selected vehicles' link. Not sure if this is...

I noticed this morning that the Canadian financing rates have been lowered by 1 percent on the 2007s. I think we are still going to hold out for a 2008, but the lower rate is tempting.

So from what I've read on this forum and elsewhere, it appears the 2008 mazda 5 will have a 5 speed auto transmission. I know that the specs are not out yet, but do you think the fuel efficiency will be much better on the automatic 08 compared to the 07 because of the extra gear? We are...
