    Does the commander main control selector ring light up? Looks like it might but mine doesn't.

    Using with new Samsung Note 8 & it works great!

    So, I've had my Note 8 for two days now and have put it through its paces with my 2016 CX-5 Grand Touring (w/Bose and Nav). Compared to my problematic LG V20, this is working like a charm. I get connected immediately on startup without dropping. So far, Pandora, Aha, text messages, email...

    My Mazda dealership no longer carries Mazda!

    I guess the place that I bought my Mazda from is no longer a Mazda dealership. They still have the same name and still sell the other vehicles (mostly Hyundai), but no more Mazda. Should I look for an actual Mazda dealership to take my car now? Will Mazda still honor this dealership's...

    2016 GT: Where can i report map errors?

    I've got a location on the freeway on my way home from work that has s red light camera warning. I'd like to report the error as it makes me crazy to hear about the camera and to "reduce your speed", every day. (I don't want to disable camera warnings if I can avoid it). Anyone know where to...

    Android Auto is coming to a Mazda near you!

    https://www.cars.com/articles/mazda-to-add-android-auto-apple-carplay-capability-1420694439589/ I hope they actually follow through and allow it on all models. Sweetness. I've compared my Mazda infotainment with my wife's Ford Flex (also 2016 model year) and her system absolutely runs circles...

    Bluetooth irregular auto-connect with Android Nougat 7.0

    In my 2016 GT w/Bose, my current OS version is "59.00.441 NA N" with fail-safe version at 55.00.760. I just purchased a LG V20 to replace my LG V10. The V20 runs BT 4.2 and Android 7.0 Nougat. The problem I have now, since the phone swap, is that BT does not always auto-connect when I get in...

    Automatic headlights turn on and so does the radio

    I have this weirdness happen once in a while. This doesn't happen all the time, but it has happened several times including this morning. I pull into a parking garage for work every day and my headlights usually come on, but sometimes so does the radio! Anyone else getting this quirkiness...

    Phone favorites not working & lost contacts

    So, at one point I got a solicitation call that I ignored. Then, my wife calls me and her caller ID shows her picture, her number, but the name of that solicitor! So, I go into my phone and edit her contact to correct it and, perhaps coincidence, all of my favorite contacts are gone in the car...

    Is there an aftermarket HU that can still use the Multi Commander??

    I've become a fan of the Mazda controllers but I'm really wanting an Android Auto head unit (and something with a better NAV). I know the steering wheel controls can be used on aftermarket HUs but how about at least the volume controller? It would be nice to use both controllers but I would...

    Optional Accessories on my sticker - Question

    On my new vehicle sticker, under Optional Accessories, I have "RCK" Roof Rack, Side Rails at $275. Is this referring to the rails that run length-wise on the roof or is it referring to the rails that cross between those? It seems to me that I have never seen any CX-5's without the rails that...

    Mazda Apps out there??

    I just purchased my 2016 CX-5 GT (FWD) yesterday and am loving it of course. I'm playing with the infotainment system and am also wondering if anyone has made apps for it yet? It uses something called OpenCar; I guess an open source car app initiative... I am looking to pickup a NAV SDcard...
