I'd traded mine for AA/CP directions on HUD.

Let me just put this here to assure you that it happens regardless of whether it’s serviced by the dealer or by yourself: - These are my rear brake pads on a 2016 with the same issue, if you go through that thread you'll see that it's a wide-spread issue. - And the same story on a 2021: Rear...

that's not the point when it comes to safety features the point is - screens do go black (just search tesla touchscreen dead on youtube) if safety features go out along with the screen - you're done, fried like a Kentucky chicken

One more question - this new navigation seems to be Google Maps? Is it going to work with no cellphone coverage? In my case the only time I fall back to the built-in navigation is when there's no cellphone coverage. Doesn't happen often, for most people, but anyone venturing out to...

So, how do you turn on the windshield defroster and rear window defogger/heater?

Given the quantity of CX-5 blower replacement tutorials like this one, the fact that mine is making that familiar noise, and this thread starter's situation, it must be a common issue. Fortunately it seems to be about $50 and 15 mins of work

Ebay makes it affordable, or at least doable That's a bigger issue. I'm sure that dealers wouldn't do that, but could non-dealer shops have the right tools? As I understand, software might have something to do with Toyota, I have no idea but wildest guess -- is there any chance programming is...

There must be a way to enable AA/ACP HUD display for previous years, either with software, or hardware swap HUD directions (AA/ACP) is the only thing that I miss in my '21 cx5 In the worst possible case that would be a retrofit of CMU + HUD assembly + harness + coding

I can hear mine go a bit off balance on high, but it's not making any noise if it's below high I know this sound well, I had to deal with it in my first bmw 318 E30 and ended up replacing the fan. But that was a 15 year old car :) Please keep us posted, if you happen to have the blower motor...

Front pads replaced once. Agreed -- it's really hard to tell if the the problem was the pads or the dealer. But brake fluid light doesn't turn on without a reason, and the reason (in the best case scenario) is the pads worn out in less than 15k mi. I have no other issues with the car but the...

FWIW my 2021 by 30k mi had: - low brake fluid alert triggered once - rear brake pads replaced twice, once due to squeaking, search my messages the car is serviced twice a year at the dealer I'm curious if I'm about to get the pads replaced the third time at the next service, last time they...

was it under warranty?

CX5 has bad history of brake issues. My 2021 had all pads replaced at 15k, then rear pads replaced at 23k, now at 30k they are at 60% I couldn't find any ETBs for that, this is the closest one 2019 CX-5 Brake questions My 2016 one had exact same issues Most of my driving is highways at 65mph+

this is iX3 2026. The most drastic interior UX redesign, they removed the dash completely replacing it with window projection, but still left some buttons. Now that I think about it, these are probably the most critical ones to me. I use volume control all the time, and in winter the...
