    I have A CX5 and I want to upgrade to HID

    This is not state law but federal. See this link for some discussion on this forum. Link What's worst this is huge liability issue. In head on collision at night, you might still be responsible even thought the other driver caused it (he/she was blinded by your lights).

    Is there a way to adjust volume of Bluetooth / USB / etc separately?

    I have Samsung Galaxy Nexus and when I start streaming Pandora I can change Bluetooth volume. I usually set it to max so the car volume is equal to other music sources. I have an app on my phone, Tasker, to automate the process - phone connected to my car -> set Bluetooth volume to max.

    Xenon shutters misaligned?

    That's definitely done on purpose. All lights have to follow this pattern. It's just more visible with Xenon. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Low_beam_light_pattern_for_right-hand_traffic.svg

    Passenger Airbag light stays on

    I just checked page 2-56 from OM and it seems that the light will only turn off if passenger's weight is normal. The light in my 2014 stays on all the time when the passenger seat is empty.

    CX-5 Fuel economy

    Go to Fuelly and select your vehicle. On the right side click on SHARE YOUR MPG. Copy the code for large or small banner and paste it in your signature for this board (settings, edit signature). Unfortunately, Fuelly still doesn't allow 2014 for model year. I sent few messages to them but no...

    CX-5 Fuel economy

    It would be very helpful if everyone reporting fuel consumption would provide info about their vehicle (signature). I guess 27.1 would be decent for 2.5l AWD but not so for 2.0 FWD.

    I'm considering this or clear bra. Bra are more expensive (~$100 for 24'') but they protect more.

    Keyless start - what is the point?

    Solved this problem long time ago. I just don't use lock button on the door. I've always used key fob before I got my CX-5.

    CX5 Insurance

    My insurance is over $900 from Erie. This might be inflated since I have teenage daughter on my car also. I cannot complain. I have 4 drivers (one teen), 3 car and I pay just over 1800 a year (500/200).

    Ebay CX-5 Door Scuff Protector. Not Bad.

    I also ordered the same ones but I definitely will put them on the metal. I had Acura with OEM installed sills and I never had problem with exposed plastic that couldn't be fixed with some polishing.

    Is the CX-5 a LEMON ?

    It's a very well known fact when a person has a problem he/she is trying to find a forum to vent about it. This might indicate that there are a lot of issues with a product.

    Where to get a 'Dead Pedal'?

    You cannot go any cheaper than hollis's solution. It looks great (in my opinion), it's practical and it's cheap (just over $6). I was considering Husky liners but they are expensive and I don't need them in Virginia. After 5 years, I can buy new carpet floor mats for half of Husky liners price.
