    Tips for waxing (your car)?

    Thanks for the info Ride92. I've used Meguiars Gold Class Carnauba+Plus Liquid Wax for years. I like how it goes on and comes off and the protection seems pretty good. I didn't know about the Ultimate and want to try it from what you've said about it. So between the two are you saying that the...

    Burning CDs to MP3 to play on Infotainment

    Burn your CD's to Flac. This is a lossless format, meaning you don't lose any info from your music. This is best for your home stereo when you get a network player with a built in DAC. At this point you'll never use your CD's again. With your Flac files you can convert them to whatever you...

    I had the smell too but it will go away. I think like 800 miles it was gone. Dealer assured me it was normal and would go away.

    2017+ Aux CD Player

    I totally agree its hard to tell the difference between 320 Mp3 and lossless but I think the Wave sounds better. Have you tried converting one of your Flac files to wave?

    2017+ Aux CD Player

    FLAC files won't work on our Mazda's but WAVE will and that is also lossless.

    2017+ Aux CD Player

    That's the key is to burn CD's to 320kbs. This will give you as good as CD quality. Also on my 2nd USB stick I have burned my HiRes FLAC files to WAVE files. I have 15 Albums on a 16gb stick of WAVE files and these are better then CD quality. This is much better then a 10 disc changer and when...

    2017+ Aux CD Player

    You don't, you use your USB storage instead. Much easier and sounds great. CD's will soon be a thing of the past.

    What the hell just happened???

    Happened on my 2018 but no braking. A car was turning left from in front of me but it took him a long time to get to the center and out of my way. As I got closer a yellow box appeared in my HUD saying "BRAKE". I thought, cool but I was in control, the system did not brake on its own.

    You don't need a CD player, use your USB inputs and control it through your Infotainment system.
