2016 CX-5 GT Navigation Updates!

[ddtigger1]

I would not try it, just kind of wish we all could have the same or some things from other areas.

UK, live traffic

DVD or video option for the kids

Would like at the least CarPlay soon with pandora update too LOL...

I updated my Nav yesterday.

My system now has traffic options, and shows some basic traffic info, although I have not tested in with a trip yet.

Was this stuff here before? Or was this just added?

I was at my local Mazda dealer yesterday (finally seem to have sorted a issue with auto transmission) and asked about when the next entertainment system software update will be released.

They said that there is a BIG software update/enhancement due out very soon, and that Mazda Japan has promised it will address the slow/unsatisfactory performance many people have experienced. He said that they have been told in the meantime to stop doing any updates to the currently available entertainment system software.

So I guess we just have to wait and see what this big new sw release achieves, both in terms of performance imporvements, and possibly new or enhanced features and capabilities.

Obviously this info applies for Australian systems, but rarely to we get anything that is not bieng released more widely so I expect something similar will be worldwide.

Just updated my maps to the January update. Sorry no new features that I can see. Traffic is the same old historical data, no live traffic, sorry.

I hope the new update include live traffic. I had a 2014 CX-5 and liked that it had live traffic updates. I now have a 2016.5 CX-5 and wish it had live traffic updates. So convenient.

I was at Mazda dealership this morning on another issue. Spoke to Mazda head office technical rep about the "big infotainmnet system software update" that they told me late last year would be relesaed "early in 2017".

He confirmed this big update is still coming, but had been delayed as issues were found in testing so its back in Japan for further development. They now hope it will be released here in Australia in April. He also confirmed that Mazda has told dealers to hold off doing any updates to existing systems until the new version is released. He is confident that this update will resolve nearly 100% of issues people have been having with performance.

I asked about Apple carplay, he wasnt saying anything.

Are you talking about a Nav update or an infotainment system update?

Sorry, infotainment system update.
