    2017~2025 3 Year Warranty ending this month: Any service suggestions?

    This has nothing to do with any of the questions, but I always like to do a brake fluid exchange after a couple of years. If you trust your dealer to do it, I would consider the service. I would also say you do not have to use the dealer if you do it yourself or have a trusted independent.

    2017~2025 Water on Passenger A-Pillar when Snowing/Raining

    I have not researched it much, but have heard on the radio that a little compressed hair is enough to blow out the drains, usually. It was a 1990’s repeat of the The Car Guys on NPR... I would use my little 2 gallon air compressor if I had the same problem, but I have never had a car with a...

    2017~2025 Interior chrome strip sun glare problem

    NOT me. I did not experience it! It was a complaint from the wife, and I do believe it was an issue as she had to hold her hand up to block the glare. It only lasted a minute as the road and sun changed

    2017~2025 Interior chrome strip sun glare problem

    2021 CX5 Signature has satin chrome trim around front dash vents and are tied together by a single horizontal strip. The section above the glove box can provide a very disruptive distracting driver sun glare at certain times when the sun is low on horizon. Anyone notice this and have a...

    SD Navigation Card for a 2021?

    20 mins is great! Try 1.5 hours for my 19 Subaru WRX and over 30 mins to update the car from a USB stick. I am told it is inefficient Harman software. And let me tell you OTA updates via WiFi — don’t even try it!

    2021 Signature Lights

    This can be true, but you can also match the brightness to some extent by matching lumen output and choosing as low a color temp as possible. 10-15 years ago, it used to be LEDs were too dim and too cool, and finding a high lumen, low color temp LED was difficult. It should be easier now, and...

    The CX-5 LED Lighting Thread

    This has probably been discussed already, but when we bought our 2014 CX5 Grand Touring, one of the first upgrades besides license plate LEDs, was running light LEDs. I had to get a couple of pair from eBay because the first ones burned out, however, I have used the last pair for over 7 years...

    2017~2025 Do I need to replace the 4 tyres?

    I am sorry, but you really need to bite the bullet and get 4 new tires, especially if you live north of Toronto, as in your tag line. I know new P255/50R20 tires will be painful, and if you don't want to get winter tires, not sure what the provincial rules are, I would think a 3PMSF rated tire...

    Non-slip tape as sill protectors?

    For our 2014 CX5 I went nuts and purchased $100 of Chinese made stainless steel sill protectors, inner and outer. The outer worked great, as advertised, although I added more 3M doubled sided foam tape from Home Depot, the strongest then available I think 20lbs per lineal inch. The inners with...

    2021 Signature Lights

    ss I have done that to all my cars since about 2011, LEDs can make a huge difference or they can make the car look like a bad superstore. Color temperature and CRI are important, but hard to find.
