    Trade in my 2021 CX-5 or keep it?

    Or sell it to Carvana. Curious what kind of "Body issues" have required so much work?

    Trade in my 2021 CX-5 or keep it?

    Also, FWIW, please look around the forum and see how many people that don't own a 2016 CX5 have replaced LED headlights. I assure you it's a tiny number. These lights absolutely should outlast the car.

    Disable daytime running lights?

    I know the feature is not available but they could be the same lights used in Japan as the cars (at least the 5) are built there. They could just be dumbed down. Volvo Audi and BMW do this. Or are you saying you know for sure these are specifically built different?

    Disable daytime running lights?

    I would assume the newest higher trim Mazdas use the Japanese adaptive lights in the US. Surely hoping for that final approval, like Toyota, so they can offer to program your car (for $200) to enable this once it's finally approved.

    Disable daytime running lights?

    Yea they can, Yrwei. I'm not guessing. And I am not specifically talking about Mazda here. Of course yours and mine cannot do this. I know for a fact BMW, Audi and Volvo all use the EXACT SAME HEADLIGHTS in Europe as they do here in all their cars. (I'm sure MB does too, but not positive). BMW's...

    2016 CX-5 Sport key fob battery died in about a month

    That proves me correct. Thanks. The key becomes active AFTER the car looks for it. Not simply because it is in proximity. "When the vehicle is triggered...() a signal is sent...."

    And that's cool, Conrad. Glad you've had success. I'll continue to get mine from Discount Drug Mart that is on my way to work. ;)

    Disable daytime running lights?

    We were just talking about this on Reddit. I am kind of an expert on where this has been and where it's going in the US. Because when I bought my 16 I thought it had that tech. Couldn't wait to try it. Didn't have it?!?! Saw that exact video you shared... did you notice how old that is...

    2016 CX-5 Sport key fob battery died in about a month

    I know. My original batteries last over 4 years. I bought some from the local drug store and they have lasted for over 2 years now. Never buying from Amazon again.

    Off Topic My Winter Beater

    So I finally understand the whole driving assist thing. I can't believe how long this has been around. "Pilot Assist" on the Volvo is almost, not quite, but almost self driving. It keeps you perfectly centered in the lane, keeps you perfectly xx car length behind the car in front of you. Will...

    2016 CX-5 Sport key fob battery died in about a month

    I don't think that's true at all. I believe it's passive. You press the unlock button and the car then looks for the fob. If it finds it, then it unlocks. You would have to build way more tech into the fob if you enable it to know it's near the car and then starts to broadcast.

    Disable daytime running lights?

    3 maybe. 1? I mean it's a LIGHT DISPLAY. MORE light isn't hurting anything. lol 2? They aren't THAT bright.

    Bought some batteries off Amazon for my Volvo fob. Went through all 5 of them in a couple of months. Never again.

    2014 CX-5 - What's the best audio format for USB drive?

    The processor is, unfortunately, that slow or there's not enough RAM to run the operation or something. It is the car. I've seen his complaint a lot over the years. Cataloging a large USB stick does take quite some time.

    2014 CX-5 - What's the best audio format for USB drive?

    The best is FLAC or LOSSLESS WAV. IDK if the Mazda supports that in 14. 2nd best would be 320K MP3.
