    ECU Location?

    I'll answer the question though... Ever seen the movie Back To The Future? That's all I can divulge.

    Prices paid for 2019 CX5

    GT AWD MSRP $32,440 $30,200 + license/fees (Lease) Purchase would have been $29,550 due to $650 more in incentive from Mazda on a purchase. Washington State I just turned 50 and this is my 36th car. They gave me $1,000 more than I would have taken for my 2010 Acura MDX on the trade. I...

    Easy Phone Mount for Android Auto / Apple Car

    Well I decided to go with a magnetic mount to the left of the shifter. Since with Android Auto you almost never have to look at the phone, this keeps it accessible but yet not unecessarily cluttering the dash or partially blocking vents. (I'l probably get a smaller black cable guide instead of...

    Any advice for a new (2019) CX-5 Owner?

    Ya I skimmed the owners manual on my tablet last night mainly to see how the radar cruise control worked. Everything else is either no different than most cars or can be figured out with common sense reading the labels on screen with a few exceptions that the dealers already showed me like the...

    Any advice for a new (2019) CX-5 Owner?

    Just picked up a 2019 CX-5 GT. Came from a 2010 Acura MDX. I'm a Tech Guy and loving the Android Autoplay, wish it were wireless though. So nice to not have to turn the stereo volume down to say, "OK Google...." amongst other benefits. I think I pretty much figured out everything on the car...

    New Motor Trend article comparing CX-5, RAV-4, CR-v, etc.

    Gee, as CX-5 owners, do ya think we're all biased to varying degrees? LMAO. The magazines have to try to evaluate giving more or less equal weight to various aspects of the cars. But in reality, each owner has their personal preference on what's important and what's not. I just traded in a...

    Twisted Tuning - Mazda CX-5 Flash Tune

    I've been researching ECU tunning options for my 2019 CX-5. Think I'm dead in the water. Seems the OBD2 devices offer non significant benefits (whether $20 on Ebay or $150 name brand units?) Seems you need to use Mazdaedit and can't find anyone that will sell me a package to do it remotely...

    Easy Phone Mount for Android Auto / Apple Car

    Just got a 2019. A little surprised you have to plug the phone into a cable to use Android Auto. Pretty slick though. Seems you don't really need to access the phone now. Stashing it in the center console is a little clunk and a tight fit. I was thinking an elegant solution would be some...

    Prices paid for 2019 CX5

    This isn't a contest... What can you expect to get *near* on a 2019 GT AWD (not the reserve or signature or PP package) WITHOUT the Loyalty (previous Mazda Owner) incentives. I think a purchase has $1000 rebate and a lease has $350. MSRP $32,440 if I remember correctly (not a model that you...

    Performance Chips

    I know this type of question risks getting mostly "guesses" as few people would have actually tested HP improvements on a dynometer and will use a very wishful thinking rear-end seat meter, but what the heck. I've used ECU chip performance upgraded for Japanese cars long ago. The ones that...

    Price on Android Auto Apple Car Upgrade?

    I thought I read somewhere that the upgrade fee was $200. I'm looking at leasing a 2018 (few left at dealers) and the dealers told me the upgrade was $450? What? I imagine it's negotiable to a point but isn't the upgrade just inserting a USB stick to update the software? Is there a cheap...
