I remember someone posting a link to customize your nav system. I updated the background.png image but can't find the damn image on the sd card to replace. Has anyone done customization? Any tips?

I will post a summary of my findings including contacting mazda directly, sometime later this week.

Please provide more info. Is it for all cx5s? I have a 2016. Any links for this tsb?? Thanks!

Almost. First real car was a new 2002 Elantra followed by a 2008 Santa Fe and then a 2012 Sonata. Very happy with my 2016 CX5, with the exception of the very weak vents and heating system overall (including weak heated seats). There is no comparison vs the Hyundais when comparing the...

No. Not solved. Weather has been milder here as of late. If it's -8 C or colder, it's definitely inadequate. I am having the dealer look at it next week. Not expecting anything. The temperature outside is definitely a factor here.

What is the bulb size for the trunk light?

Same here

Car is parked in garage. Always.

Thanks for the background. If I knew it was critical, I would have had mentioned it. Thanks for the side note. Noted. Edit 1: I am going to double check that the blue light indeed does stay on for the duration. I remember it being on an awful long time. Will check and let everyone know. Edit...

The blue light stays on for my entire ride (30m). What does that blue light mean? Edit: correction - seems to be on for a long time. Tested it this afternoon and turned itself off after 8-10 minutes. Will try tomorrow morning for the regular drive. Sorry for the confusion

If it's 5 degrees or warmer outside, I don't have issues. The heating and cooling system don't need the juice that it needs when it's -25. Again, for those who don't live in frigid conditions (I would say -10 and below), you won't be able to speak to this like the rest of us.

Just googled the same. Thanks for posting this. It will help out others in the future.

Good call. Let me check. Thank you.

Nope - poor on both automatic and manual for me. Thinking of taking a new CX5 for a test drive and see if it reacts the same. I've got a 2026 and if it's as bad as mine, I'm s*** out of luck.

That definitely makes sense actually. But man, why is it not achieving the goal of warming up the car quickly? Or even after half an hour?
