Good day, For quite some time, over a year, I have had an inconsistent *awful* rattle in my front door speakers. Sometimes it did it with radio but not with USB, sometimes cold, warm, left, right. It drove me nuts (NUTS!) as I could not reproduce it. In the end I could get rid of it by...

I am replacing the stock Toyo A23 this month when I change from winter tires. Got 45,949km out of the Toyo's. In Canada, of course the prices are much more - here's what I've found for replacement for 19" 2015 tires for those looking (these are H and V rated), Costco only offer 1 V rated...

+1 for knowing about these. It's crappy we have to hunt to find out that something we're putting up with actually has a TSB and could have been fixed under warranty, if it met the complaint. Most of the time I wouldn't even look to see (front door speakers are a good example - where I thought...

Good day, I recently replaced my front brakes for the first time and it went well... a couple of lessons learned to share: 1) Measure brake pads yourself! I bought pads and rotors, took it to the cottage and started the replacement before realizing I still had 4mm and 7mm on the pads. They...

Oops, poor explanation - I expected a TSB to be dealt with even when the warranty period had expired and that is not the case. I still think it should be dealt with when it is a known defect. I can understand something breaking after 3 years and having to replace it but when it's a problem...

Thanks yrwei52, will consider General's for sure - Tire Rack comes in at $931 to order those though - so I don't think that free shipping applies as it was $250 in taxes and fees and taxes on $630 would be less than $100. I can get the LTX for that at Costco I think.

I brought in my vehicle for a TSB for an audio issue after warranty expired and dealer said TSB's are not covered under warranty - is that the case for anyone else?

Just had U-Haul install Class III hitch with 2" receiver and lights this week for $288 plus whatever ball/arm needed. The dealer, for 4 years, has advertised $600 special to install. I kept waiting for a better price and it never changed! Should have just negotiated hitch as part of purchase...

My 2015 CX-5 GT AWD 19" is exactly 4 years old this week and has 42,257km which is 26,257 miles (on the Toyo tires). Just had annual service and has 3 and 3.5mm on the tread left. So I am hoping to do the same thing as a previous poster and keep them until the winters go on and then switch...

Mine are rotated way more often than needed. 15,000km per year on all-season and winters. In December winters go on, April all-seasons go on and in August for the annual service they rotate the all-seasons. So 3 times a year! The tires were all original from 2014 and the all-seasons (Toyo)...

I'm 6'3" and hit my head on the damn thing regularly - you can duck all day long if you want to but most people stand up straight. It's usually when lifting and turning that I do it. When will I learn, 100th time? Usually I dangle something off low things I hit regularly (entrance to shed for...

I do think this is an issue and happens to me at least once a week. No one else in the car and I can't repeat it on demand for the dealer so of course nothing changes. Sadly, one of the times this happened my vehicle was broken into (not really broken, they just opened the door) and stole my...

Thanks yrwei52! That is terrific, I will give it a try. I turned down the bass (from neutral) and it no longer does it not do it at all. Will post how it goes.

Good day tobeychris and EEvans, did you come up with a fix? I have the same thing happening where it rattles like crazy with the radio on but strangely enough I don't notice it as often with MP3's. I think it is the front passenger door and centre dash speaker that is causing the problem.

Same area and just noticed this year how bad it looks but at 55,000km and nearly 4 years old - nothing yet replaced on the vehicle but brakes and OEM all seasons within next year I am thinking. I was just searching on what to do about it. For interest sake - I did purchase one of those dealer...

Another thumbs up for 303 - I use the spray instead of wipes. It was difficult to find in Canada. The dash on this vehicle is difficult to to keep from getting blotchy if you just use a damp rag (which is what I used for every car before this). But the softer material prevents keeps squeaks...

My sister gave me an e-cloth (some type of cloth with silver in it) and I thought it would be a gimmick. I clean all windows, glass, tv screens, mirrors at home, cottage and the CX-5 with it and it is terrific. No need for any other product. I am a believer. Just use water, ring it out and...

They work well 50% of the time. Half the time I can set it the way I want and it works perfectly, the other half the time I find I have to control it myself manually - certainly for snow, dewy mornings and fog as others have said. I've not tried disabling it and using intermittent which I...

I have a 2015 (bought in 2014 with three winters on it now), and live in southwestern Ontario and have had lots of crappiness in the winter! No rust but I did get one of those dealer installed (read $$$$) electronic rust-proof devices. I plan to keep the vehicle for at least 10 years. I did...
