    Can you run me a lock test? 2018 Touring

    Before I call dealer which is not always fun, can some one try this. Lock auto any way you want. Try liftgate with key in pocket. Opens or locked? Mine opens and only locks with key out of range. Doors are locked. Thanks

    Walk-Away Locking.. faulty or normal?

    Maybe I didn't explain it properly. I lock the car. Key in pocket. Try doors, locked. Try rear hatch, it opens. I don't want it to open until I push a button. I put key out of range, hatch locked. Go away, approach car, try doors, locked, try hatch and it opens. No buttons pressed. Hatch...

    Walk-Away Locking.. faulty or normal?

    Related question. 2018 Touring. Walk away feature is off, did factory reset. No matter how I lock the car the lift gate will open if I have the key on me. All the doors will not open. The key has to be out of range for the lift gate to lock, as close as on the hood. If I approach the car with...

    Thinking of buying a CX-5 but I have some questions first

    View from the older side. Posting as a 75 year old and our 2018 CX-5 Touring mostly used for day trips with some extended stays. The 2018 replaced a 2015 Sport. I like all of the improvements especially interior finish and quietness. A few comments. For us the cargo space is fine. For a young...

    Crack in taillight lens

    I recently bought a new 2018 Touring. (Very nice) My son is taking my 2015 Sport. When I was cleaning up the Sport I found a star type crack in the passenger side taillight. I suspect the lens is not replaceable by itself. No moisture inside. I would like to do a repair of some kind. My first...

    17" for 19" on new Touring

    I own a 2015 CX-5 Sport. I'm going to look at a 2018 Touring. I prefer 17" tires and would ask for a swap. Do any of you have a feel for how dealers respond to this request? Any big dollars involved ?

    Weak FM reception for TMC traffic on NB1 TomTom (2013 CX5)

    Just wondering if your 2013 has a whip antenna or a shark fin. In my 2015 I believe the FM antenna is in the shark fin and wish I had a whip. Poor reception on the lower powered stations like college and NPR. It is my understanding in the US that the TMC rides on a subcarrier with traditional...
