Definitely sounds battery related. Same thing just happened to us and same weird ass behavior. You can save some money by buying the battery from Costco or Sams club. It's a pretty common size.

I've used one especially this year due to Covid. I'm not driving my car much and I've had to jump it with a portable battery starter at least 3x. Worked perfectly. I got it as a gift but I think it's worth purchasing

Good luck, also see if you can bleed the brakes. I bought a vacuum bleeder from HarborFreight which worked fine but requires a compressor. But I'm sure you can youtube 2 man brake bleed and get it done.

I have a 2016 and went with PowerStop coated from RockAuto. My only complaint was that one of the replacement shims didn't mate with the caliper causing it to stick. I reused the OEM shim which worked fine. Powerstop was also offering a rebate at that time so I saved an additional $50.

According to my dealer, the DRL flickering would have forced them to fail me if they were to have officially performed the inspection. Due to this unique situation, they decided to not officially start the inspection as they would then fail me, giving me only 10 days to rectify the failure. My...

An update if anyone is still interested. Mazda has almost no inventory to replace the recalled headlights. I brought my 2016 GT to have them examine them and to do a state inspection. Weird catch 22 situation. I need to have one replaced and they don't have the part. And they could not perform...

2016 GT - did my first one at 5K and then every 7.5K after. So far only Mazda moly but I'm thinking about getting Idemitsu from Amazon for my next oil change. Any one using it?

I was going to but then I realize this isn't at all essential. So I'm going to wait until the governor's stay at home order has been lifted.

Just got my official recall notice in the mail. Now to schedule the repair with the local dealer.

Replaced rear brakes, rotors and bled them. Powerstop coated rotors and pads from rockauto. Timely as the right rear pads were almost to the metal.

55K for my rear and just started to notice the squealers. 2016 GT. Going to replace with the coated stoptech kit from Rock Auto next weekend. FYI, there is a StopTech mail in rebate through the month of March.

Yrwei52, I have a 2016 GT. I did not notice any corrosion on the speakers although the door design does let water into the speaker area. I only noticed it with bass heavy music turned up loud which I do frequently. If it continues, I'll probably just replace the speakers themselves.

I finally took my front door panels off to check out the buzzing speakers. I added some silicone caulk on the back side which I hope will reduce the buzz for good. My initial test passed. I can't believe it took me 3 years!!! I probably should have gone to the dealer to complain before my...

That's what I'm going to use for my next oil change. I've been using Mazda moly but this is the same thing. A little less expensive for sure.

Collinite 845 or if you're a glutton for punishment Collinite 476. I tried some Jescar powerlock which is a sealant I wasn't that impressed.
