I bought a CX5 Sport manual with the standard stereo system that did not have back-up camera or Bluetooth. My new Pioneer head unit works with steering wheel controls with the adapter module purchased separately. USB in center console must be connected to the USB on the aftermarket head unit...

I have a Pioneer AVH-X5500 in my CX5 Sport. Like it so far, HD radio is nice, app radio allows me to use MotionX GPS which is excellent and I can use it with my music playing. Bluetooth works well and DVD player sounds great. No complaints so far.

Lot's of info on upgrading a sport sound system in a previous post titled, "Radio / Speakers on CX-5 SPORT model"

I followed the instructions and my car went into ECO MOOD and would not let me go faster than 45 mph!

I like Woodford Reserve 90.4. My car likes any brand 87.

I didn't install any bass blockers on the Focals or the Infinitys. The Focals in the front doors of the CX5 are component mids with the tweeters in the dash. The ones in the back doors have the tweeter mounted in front of the mid speaker. The Infinitys are all tweeter combined with the mid...

I have Focals in my CX5 Sport and Infinity Reference in my Altima. While the Focals do sound great the Infinitys are very good also and were much cheaper. Note I am driving all of these with aftermarket head units (internal amps only).

Peppy!

The Alpine head unit and JBL sub.

Idemitsu 0W20 available here for $22 US a gallon http://www.autohausaz.com/search/product.aspx?partnumber=20102059&utm_source=google&utm_medium=nonpaid&utm_campaign=frooglePN&utm_term=20102059&gclid=CIDvq-Gg1boCFUlp7AodQxAAcw

Bikes lock down very solid if the anti-sway attachments are used and the rack does not wobble in the receiver hitch. The integral bike lock is very conveinient but kind of minimal theft protection.

My 2014 CX5 Sport has the dealer installed receiver hitch and I use this 3 bike rack with no problems what so ever. http://www.thule.com/en-us/us/products/carriers-and-racks/bike-carriers/hitch-mounted-bike-carriers/thule-helium-aero-2-bike-9042-_-1680099

Thanks for pointing this out. Bought myself several gallons of the Idemitsu 0W20 from AutohausAZ http://www.autohausaz.com/search/product.aspx?partnumber=20102059&utm_source=google&utm_medium=nonpaid&utm_campaign=frooglePN&utm_term=20102059&gclid=CLPI28_ajLoCFVFp7AodTFUAaA at a pretty good...

I vote for yellow.
