    Got the autolock feature turned on and I love it!

    If I recall, if you have the autolock enabled, you have to use the physical key to use the car after remote-starting. You have to remove the 'key wedge" thing and insert a real key, or else it will not go/

    Check engine light

    Same as mine. But they had a Power Control Module software update for mine. I wonder why they didn't update yours?

    CX-7 warranty repair #1, after 2 weeks of owning

    I feel your pain. I've never had a good experience taking my car to a dealer. There always seems to be a negative. Took mine in for a check engine light, and stood waiting 25 minutes for the head mechanic to come back from a break. Only to be told that even though I had an appointment, it would...

    Black Cherry

    It would be great to see some pics! I haven't seen that color around my area yet.

    Check engine light

    My Check Engine Light came on at 855 miles. Dealer diagnostic - P0455 for EVAP system malfunction They had a software update for the Power Control Module, so they upgraded the software, and said it should be ok.

    Same problem with mine. If the passenger touches the dash board, I end up with with smudge marks. Grr.

    Remote Start

    Interesting. The dealer told me that in order to use the remote start with the proximity locking, that I would have to use the physical key to drive the car. Looks like that was not true...

    Remote Start

    I agree. It is so inconvient. I would never use it, since I like the idea of the proximity key. But using it with the keyless entry, you have to remove the key-fob thing, and use your real key before it will let you drive it.

    Enable NAV while driving

    Waiting for this also. I agree, the passenger should be able to make entries.

    Pics

    The mirrors are different on the Grand Touring also. They are the same color as the car, whereas the non-GT are black, I believe.

    A/C Efficiency?

    It is in the high 90's here in Northern Virginia. I've been driving with mine on 2, and no recirc. Nice and chilly. However, I park in a garage at home and at work. I've noticed if I am parked in the sun, it seems to take forever to cool off the inside. And on a side note, the owners manual...

    cx-7 and problems

    I thought 91 was the recommended minimum. So 92 should be good.

    CX-7 accessories

    Just two phillips screws, and two brackets. The brackets are hooked at the bottom, and go under a metal grove in the sunroof well. The rubber skirt was the hardest part, as it will easily get bunched up underneath. But that is easy to fix. Here is a diagram from the instruction sheet:
