    Leaking (2018 CX-5 Touring)

    My car is leaking from the front, right (passenger) side. It's a greenish-looking fluid and it's leaking a lot. I'd see my car leak sometimes but it usually was after having the AC on and I thought it was some kind of condensation, however, I did not have the AC on this morning. I noticed this...

    2017~2024 Need tail light

    I have a 2018 CX-5 Touring I need to get a new tail light (passenger side) because the one I have it's broken. The dealer would do it for $396.18, I'm assuming that's parts and labor. I checked prices and I found it for much less at RealMazdaParts and Amazon for about $150. How important is it...

    Snow chains

    I have a 2018 CX-5 Touring AWD and I am in the market for a set of snow chains. My tires are P225/55R19. Also, do I need snow chains or cables? I see that some people recommend cables instead of chains, why? I've never heard of "cables"? Thanks.

    Apple CarPlay installed ... not working!!

    I had ACP installed yesterday. The guy who was showing me how to use it, was using his iPhone to show me how it worked. It didn't occur to me to have him do it with my phone to see if it worked, I just imagined it would. Also, the only cable I had on me was one that can't be used with my phone...

    Considering upgrade to Apple CarPlay

    So I am considering upgrading to ACP on my 2018 CX5 Touring. I called my dealer and they quoted me around $529 for everything. $199 for the kit and about $300 for labor. Initially I thought that was excessive but I am told that that is not the case. I thought about buying the kit myself and...

    Auto care (washing/cleaning)

    I want something simple to wash and clean my car. I'm thinking soap with wax (if these types of soap, these combinations, are not recommended, please say so) and something to clean the interior. If I've missed anything please let me know. For example, if my proposed method to clean my car is so...

    Question about repair

    So this week I noticed that the back reflector was loose. I tried to see if I could put it back on but no cigar. I called my dealer because I figured this would be covered by my warranty (my car is 7 months old) and made an appointment. I went to my appointment yesterday and right away the...

    2017~2024 So annoying...

    I have an iPhone that I have paired via blutooth to my 2018 CX-5 so I can listen to the music stored in my iPhone or, usually, to Spotify. Well, from time to time my car and my phone do not talk to each other. The car recognizes my phone but does not play the songs my phone is playing. This...

    Mats and other things

    Hello. I just purchased a 2018 CX-5 Touring AWD and I was looking to buy the all-weather mats and the cargo liner floor mat. I looked in Amazon for these products (there is no way I can enter my current model, but I was told I could use the 2017 model in its place) but it seems all I can get are...
