    Yeah, no complaints about the headlights here.

    Mazda Oil Filter Question

    But that thread also doesn't have anything more than people saying they don't think it's as good. Again, without proof.

    What have you done to your CX-5 today?

    The '23s had three years no charge, then monthly fee after that. Newer model years only get 1 year free.

    What have you done to your CX-5 today?

    Hah! Never even thought of that! Do you have any info links? I'm interested in the how, but not that I'll do it, as I already picked up a commercial one for like $15.

    2013~2016 CX-5 Help Request: HVAC Air Blend Actuator

    Had the same symptom on my CX-50. It was a refrigerant leak (i.e low charge). I must admit I was confused as to why low charge would cause one side to be warmer than the other, but there it is.

    How to remove accent in grille?

    I think the point about taking photos, is so that you can know where to correctly replace the original fasteners.

    Best Tires for 2021 CX-5 Turbo?

    I have both of these tires. The Pirellis on our CX-5 and the Conti's on my CX-50. The Conti's have better handling, but then they are lower profile (20" wheels). Both have much better ride than the original tires on the cars.

    How easy is DIY for the spark plugs?

    Ahhh, no. Don't just tighten "really good", you risk damaging the plug, or worse, the head. If you don't have a torque wrench, you can follow the instructions on the NGK package, which says to insert and hand tighten to the bottom touch point, then use a wrench to turn a further fraction of a...

    Maintenance Schedule Questions

    You might want to shop around on prices. For example, my dealer charges $72 for syn oil change + the multi point inspection. Transmission fluid (per Mazda) is lifetime, but if you look at the threads here, the consensus is change it! It can't hurt and may well make your tranny last longer...

    Possible to add auto dimming homelink mirror without any programming?

    Ohhh, I did not see those. Then that is not the same kit as I had. Aggh. After looking up my old order emails I realize that it was our 2014 CX-5 mirror that I replaced (doh! - Senior moment!) Anyway, that one should work, even with the scotchlocks. :-/

    Possible to add auto dimming homelink mirror without any programming?

    Yes and no. Yes you can do it without any programming, no the wires do not exist. It's available as a kit with a new harness piece. I got one for my our 2019, but note you have to disassemble the driver A-pillar to install the harness. Still, it works well. Here's one on eBay. Nno...
