I advise you to do what I did. Look online for a replacement. I found a screen on ebay, bought it, installed it myself and everything works like new. And a lot cheaper than dealer price, of course.

I am confused. You posted a screenshot from an android phone with all sorts of engine/car parameters. I assumed that the screenshot is from your phone. That's what I am talking about.

What app is this and does it work with iPhone?

Make sure you have a spark plug socket, don't try to use regular socket. Start tightening with bare hands until you cannot turn it by hand anymore, then use the ratchet. I've seen people here talking about torque values for the spark plugs. I used "gut and tight" torque. 😆 So far no issue.

I believe that the first generation Mazda CX-5 does not support Car Play or Android Auto with the native infotainment system. I am afraid that your only choice is to install an aftermarket head unit or a retrofit. Here's a YouTube video showcasing a possible solution for your problem...

Never done any carbon cleaning, did a throttle body cleaning and that’s it, simple stuff. I was thinking about doing a walnut blasting, contacted a local shop for a quote but never got a response. I guess they deal only with high end cars and cx-5 is beneath them.

Why... Because the car just passed 180.000 miles and I decided that it wouldn't hurt to replace the spar plugs after only 20.000 miles. That's a lot of mileage if you ask me and a little preventive maintenance would help. Will I do it again after next 20K miles? I don;t know. The car runs just...

Get these: Auto Trim Removal Tool Kit and Double side tape . Once you remove the trim, clean it and then apply the tape on the edges of the trim, both sides. You should be able to see where the tape is supposed to be applied. Most likely the trim is missing the tape or it's damaged.

Replaced the spark plugs today, at 180.403 miles. O’Reilly NKG Laser Iridium. The old ones were the same. Installed them back in October but decided to replace them after 20.000 miles or so.
