    Will I get a warning message with aftermarket gauges?

    What's not accurate with OBD readings? They report the car's own sensor values.

    CX-5 AC Refrigerant Line Insulation?

    So there you have it... It makes no difference and causes problems -OR- It works well and has no issues. Your choice!

    Debadging 2025 CX-5 Turbo Premium

    It'll be the same as any other model year and discussed in many previous threads. But to summarize, the large "M" logo has pins. The others do not. EDIT: My bad. I thought I was on the CX-50 forum (ooops!) So ignore my post :D

    CX-5 AC Refrigerant Line Insulation?

    Whether you want to insulate or not, *IF* you did insulate, there would not BE any condensation from that pipe, since the moisture-laden warm air would not be able to reach the cold pipe - thus, no condensation could/would form. The puddle under the car comes from the outside air passing...

    Mazda Infotainment Settlement

    But the settlement (first post in thread) states: All current owners or lessees of Class Vehicles will automatically receive a LWE for potential software updates or necessary connectivity master unit (CMU) repairs or replacements for a period of 24 months. I think maybe your dealer was trying...

    Observations Comparing My 2016 and 2019 CX-5

    Very unlikely to be the CD. That only comes into play in steady state cruising. It's more likely to be the lockup torque converter in the 2019.

    Sounds like it to me :(

    Mazda Service

    ^THIS! Neither is any oil additive recommended by Mazda, so don't let them sell you that either! My dealer is pretty good and doesn't try to push those, but they do quote the $100+ cost for changing cabin/engine filters. I find it very funny, since they send the tech's videos, where s/he's...

    Remote window lowering

    It should be press-press-press-press&hold (hold down on the 4th press). Just make sure the lights flash on each press, but don't wait any longer than that between presses.

    2017~2025 Anybody use a washable CX-5 CAF?

    Through California wildfires? :D

    2017~2025 Anybody use a washable CX-5 CAF?

    Just in case it is... NEVER use a furnace filter for an engine intake filter. The furnace filter will not clean the incoming air anywhere near as well as a proper engine filter, allowing for greater wear and shorter engine life. If you want to use it in your cabin filter, you can go right...

    2017~2025 Anybody use a washable CX-5 CAF?

    This^ Plus, you shouldn't need to replace the filter for 2-3years (1 year is overkill), so works out even better!

    Aftermarket touch screen for Mazda CX-5?

    Wait. It works with current firmware versions? How? And since when?

    Lift Gate Badge held on/in with adhesives or pins?

    Well, duh, yeah :) I was replying to the question about how difficult or easy it is to get them off.

    Aftermarket touch screen for Mazda CX-5?

    The Mazda AIOtweaks software (to which you refer) used a back door hack to modify the firmware. Mazda has closed that door with later firmware versions after ~2020, so nothing will work now, unfortunately.

    Lift Gate Badge held on/in with adhesives or pins?

    The pins are for location only. The badges are only held on with double-sided tape.

    Guide How To Disable Daytime Running Lights (instructions)

    I think he means it's when the car is in park (or handbrake is on for other manual cars), not just when stopped.

    Lift Gate Badge held on/in with adhesives or pins?

    On our 2019, most badges were just stuck on, with the exception of the Mazda "M" emblem in the center, which has pins.

    Blower motor rattles. Worth a trip to the dealer?

    Absolutely. Either something is loose, or it's a bad bearing. Either way, it won't get any better and if you go out of warranty, it'll be on your dime. They won't charge you a fee if they don't find anything wrong (and if they don't, keep pushing and show them the video).
