    My infotainment mazda connect display system froze up on me today

    Older thread, but just had this happen on my 2019 touring. Started car in garage, froze on icon screen, drive a few miles, turn off car and restart. Screen still frozen. Phone is connected via cable and Apple Music through my phone is playing on the car speakers, but no Siri. Try to reboot by...

    Anyone have an easy way to do your own tire rotation?

    I would not use Walmart for ongoing service. They are a nightmare to deal with. I bought tires from them, but that’s a one time thing. I do rotations myself. Take it to a dealer if you have too, or a local tire shop.

    Intermittent power from USB port (2020 CX-5)

    Mine does the exact same thing, it’s pretty much unusable. Use the one designed for use with the infotainment screen/car play/AA and/or get a cigarette lighter. its not the cord, just a super cheap usb port. Might even be 1.0.

    Looking for some help with a 2018 CX-5

    Nope, constant power. Only the one in the front by the shifter goes off with the car.

    2017~2025 CX-5 Brake pedal feel

    All vehicles have different brake feel. Only thing you can do is bleed the brake calipers to see if any air bubbles come out. What year is your vehicle and when was brake fluid last changed?

    Guide CX-5 Battery Installation

    Agreed. I pushed the positive cables out of the way and was able to slide the battery a little forward and right out.

    "Service Past Due" message appears (CX-5 2019)

    Both my 2018 and 2019 do this too. Kind of annoying.

    i have no trouble reading the dipstick on my 2018 or 19 cx5s. Make sure you read the correct side as one side will have a higher reading you describe.

    Guide CX-5 Battery Installation

    Just bought a new battery from Costco for my 2018 cx5 sport, $119.99. Original battery was still cranking pretty well, but it was registering consistently below 12.4 so I felt it was time at over 5 years. Costco warranty is 36 month prorated. Guy said people were bringing batteries back toward...

    I dont have these on my cx5, but I did put them on my 04 Porsche Boxster. No issues, seem like good quality. I used the powerstop evolution.

    Approximate oil level? 2019 CX-5

    I used 5.2 quarts on my 19 touring and I was almost to top of dipstick. at 5.5 you’ve got plenty in there, a quart over what’s recommended In the manual, which we all know is too low.

    Urgent! Impending Lower Control Arm Ball Joint Failure? 2015 CX-5

    Which model years are people complaining about? I have felt some looseness on my 2019 at highway speeds and always felt it was grooves in the road or an unbalanced tire. I dont have any noises/clunks. I rotated my tires not long ago and it seems to have improved, but I’ll definitely keep an...

    Scissor jack not fitting properly to lift vehicle, doesn't match illustrations? (2016 CX-5 GT)

    Seems something that was metal and welded would be ideal. I have used the blocks i linked to on my Quickjack and it’s very stable. the pinch welds haven’t bent at all. I think when you lift, the sides of those blocks combined with the downforce from the weight of the car prevent the welds from...

    Scissor jack not fitting properly to lift vehicle, doesn't match illustrations? (2016 CX-5 GT)

    not sure I’d trust anything that wasn’t one solid piece. I just measured my pinch weld, it’s 1”.

    Scissor jack not fitting properly to lift vehicle, doesn't match illustrations? (2016 CX-5 GT)

    I haven’t seen one that deep. If you find one, please post a link. If you can find a tall block, maybe you can cut a deep groove into it. my Quickjack came with big blocks. Suppose a 1” deep groove could be cut into them

    Scissor jack not fitting properly to lift vehicle, doesn't match illustrations? (2016 CX-5 GT)

    Sorry, not following your point. The block has a groove that the pinch weld goes into. Are you suggesting you want a block that fits into the groove that is deep enough where the sides come in contact with actual frame? I’ve been using the blocks I linked to for quite a while with no issues.
