    A new "high" for our dealership. They MUST be joking!

    So we have been having our services performed for years (and I mean over 12!) at our dealership (Chapman in south NJ). Wife took her CX-9 in for 90K service (which they quoted over $400 for! We declined everything but the full synthetic oil change and rear differential fluid change (which was...

    Just FYI. I’ll clear the backlog of requests tomorrow. Wife and I just got back from over 2 weeks in Europe and I need to get caught up at work and we’re spending time with kids.

    Mazda Connect Firmware 74.00.230A (now .324A)

    and please confirm you upgraded FW before installing the hardware. I do see the kit you purchased and seems to have good reviews, so maybe the kit is OK.

    Mazda Connect Firmware 74.00.230A (now .324A)

    That’s my only concern. If there are any internal issues with the kit, it makes it harder to troubleshoot. Certainly the OEM kits are recommended for this reasons. Any chance you took photos during install? Can you provide instructions you followed? I installed the OEM kit on my wife’s CX-9...

    LED Rear bumper reflector light install question (2024 CX-5 Turbo)

    Send a link to where you purchased the lights. You likely will not use the green wire in the OEM harness. If I had to guess (again, a link to your specific lights would help): Black light fixture to black OEM (ground screw or ground hub would be better). White wire fixture (usually green but...

    Post Pictures of Your CX-5 Mods, Upgrades and Accessories!

    Well. Almost 5 years later and the little controller box for my front bumper lights finally gave out. Was able to get a replacement and 40 minutes later I am back up and running.

    Need Seat Deep Cleaning Help (2018 CX-9)

    Thank you both for this. I think I’ll tackle it without disassembly. The only issue is there is definitely an odor and I’m not sure whether that is a result of seepage into the seat cushion itself or just permeating from the leather. He’s feeling much better and he’s finally over the...

    Need Seat Deep Cleaning Help (2018 CX-9)

    There’s no easy way to approach this, so I’ll rip the bandaid off. Our oldest child, while in my wife’s passenger seat (2018 CX-9) with ventilated/heated seats had norovirus and had diarrhea that seeped through his pants (he’s fine but upset about it). Needless to say, I was able to surface...

    Pushed in reflector lens (2020 CX-5)

    There’s just some screws and clips holding it in place. It’s not difficult to drop the undercarriage cover panel under the car and take a peak inside to fix it. No way the whole bumper needs replacing. I replaced my reflectors with led lights (2019) and there was just a few screws per light.
