    2013~2016 Left sunroof open durning rain. Tips to ensure CX5 dries out?

    Ok I drove home from work and the seats were a little damp, but I guess in time it will dry out. I might get that damp rid stuff anyway since its so cheap. Might put one container under each seat. If it doesnt work or its too much Ill put them in my damp garage.

    2013~2016 Left sunroof open durning rain. Tips to ensure CX5 dries out?

    I left the sunroof open yesterday (beautiful day), but then at night there was a bad thunderstorm. I parked under a tree in my driveway which did help to shield the majority of the rain. I used a shop vac and got all of the standing water out. Mostly it was the cupholders, front leather...

    CX-5 Android Auto / Apple CarPlay

    Yeah I installed back when it was first available and when the dealer wasnt sure what the new usb hub was for. Been happy. I just came on to see if there are any new firmware updates or thoughts if the new 2019 Mazda 3 CMU user interface will be ported to these models. On Saturday the...

    Cant unlock passenger doors with fob when car is running?

    Pleased to report it worked. When I pulled up to the bus stop and went into park, I heard all the doors unlock. Got out, got my daughter out of the back, walked across the street and got her on the bus in the next minute or two it arrived. No fumbling with non working key fob or exterior door...

    Cant unlock passenger doors with fob when car is running?

    Found this screen. Im going to try the new highlighted setting. I take it that if I put it in park, the doors should unlock. Posted in the forum because my manual is out in the car in the back of a parking lot, and while at work I have easy access via Tapatalk or my desktop computer or...

    Cant unlock passenger doors with fob when car is running?

    I understand when driving maybe the fob buttons should be deactivated to prevent against accidental activation. However the car knows when its driving and when its not. Its a simple value available to the cars computer in the ODB-II spec. So if the car is at 0 mph, dont disable the fobs. A...

    Cant unlock passenger doors with fob when car is running?

    Cant unlock passenger doors with fob when car is running? I have a 206 CX-5. One thing that urks me is that I cannot unlock the other doors from the outside of the car with the buttons on the handle, hatch or fob. I will take my kids to the bus stop or daycare and get out but I cant get them...

    CX-5 Android Auto / Apple CarPlay

    I had issues with the SiriusXM app being a black screen. I deleted the app and reinstalled it and now it works. I dont have any issues with WAZE. I installed the touchscreen while moving tweak from AIO 2.8.1 and that greatly enhances the system since the touchscreen works all the time now.

    I completed my install fairly quickly this morning on my 2016 CX5. I was able to remove the USB hub without going into the trouble of removing and messing with the electronic parking brake button, commander wheel and shifter. If your hands are my size or smaller, you may be able to reach in...

    Im having a hard time sourcing the parts. I ordered from real mazda parts online which is a dealer in New Mexico. They emailed today and said they had to cancel the order because Per Mazda these parts are a part of a recall. I guess since recalls are free, thats how they are in the system to...

    I read that if you plug the new parts in a system that has firmware older than V70, it goes into a reboot loop, so you cant update because every 10 seconds its rebooting itself. The workaround is keep the original unit in so you can upgrade FW first.

    No my car came with the 59 502 firmware which requires a special serial connection. I never took the time or investment in the serial TTL adapter to perform this. I kept hearing AA/CarPlay is coming, so I figured I would wait. I hear someone with the tweak who enabled touchscreen while...

    I got it off one of the first few posts over at mazda3revolutuon site. I copied the link but I cant get paste to come up here on my iPhone. I had to put the two NA US firmware up files on a usb stick. There was a pdf document there as well how to install it. I dont notice anything different...

    My dealer has my info but I still havent heard anything back. I guess they havent got word on availability yet either here in US. I would be curious to see if the new firmware is hackable where you can enable touchscreen while in motion. I would make the special serial cable for that.

    Here in the US, I was at the dealer on Sunday for oil change, tire rotation, and I asked about it. They had no idea when or pricing. The sales manager took my information. He said a rep comes in every other week and he will bring it up. He said usually people on the Internet find out about...
