    Key fob failing?

    Here is the battery tester I used. It did illuminate several bars up into the early to low good area. I do suspect battery from what you all are saying. I swapped keyfobs with my wifes and havent had an issue since. The red LED is noticeably brighter than the other one. Ill get a battery...

    Key fob failing?

    Ill try the other key fob. Its on my wifes keychain and shes off to work before me so Ill have to remember to swap it tonight. I dont think its a module in the car, because the red light on the fob doesnt blink with a push of the button. If I bang on my coffee tumbler with it, I can get it to...

    Key fob failing?

    I notice sometimes the doors do not unlock when I push the button on the handle. A few times I had to use the physical key to open the door. I notice if I bang the key fob it then works. I put the battery in a tester and the digital bar graph on the tester indicated about 75% life left on it...

    Sometimes steering wheel favorites buttons only cycle 3 stations

    Ok I resolved this! I saw upon closer inspection I had a station in the list twice, and separated by 3. It was like this 95.7 HD1 101.1 93.3 95.7 So what I think would happen is if I hit >> and got to that second 95.7, the HD signal would kick in and rename it to 95.7 HD1, so it thought I was...

    Sometimes steering wheel favorites buttons only cycle 3 stations

    It must be a bug in the firmware. Almost like it gets some HD radio signal and then gets confused. When I had SiriusXM trial and used mostly those channels as presets, I never had a problem. Once I hit a particular station, I only have 3 presets. Prior to hitting that station I can cycle...

    Sometimes steering wheel favorites buttons only cycle 3 stations

    I noticed the other day that sometimes I'll get to a particular radio station and once I advance past that with the >> arrows on the steering wheel, it only cycles through 3 stations. No matter how far << back I press I will only cycle through these three stations. If I use the rotary knob and...

    How to adjust the guidelines for the reverse parking camera

    Wow it looks like the angle is off on yours. I just wish they articulated with the steering wheel.

    2017/18 cluster swap into 2016 possible for LCD?

    Yeah for one I don’t have the sensors required for radar adaptive cruse control. I know on a VW Jetta if the sensor is dirty or unplugged it simply says “sensor error” on its LCD MFD when cycling through to the distance setting for cruse.

    2017/18 cluster swap into 2016 possible for LCD?

    Yeah as long as it physically fits and the plugs were the same, I don’t see why not. The VW enthusiasts were doing things like this for awhile. Apparently there is a new Mustang all LCD cluster that people have swapped out with the traditional needle gauges as well.

    2017~2025 Sirius XM in 2018 CX-5 Touring with preferred package

    You could subscribe to the online only version and Bluetooth stream it from your phone. The streaming audio quality is much better and it doesn’t cut out from overpasses, buildings and thick tree cover. Plus there are a lot more channels in the 300’s and 700’s. When AA/CarPlay becomes...

    2017/18 cluster swap into 2016 possible for LCD?

    Curious if anyone knows if the cluster from a 2017/18 Mazda 6 or CX5 would fit in a 2016 and be pin compatible with the wiring harness. Some coding would likely be required to set the mileage. Reason I ask is that I rented a new 2018 Mazda 6 when my 2016 CX5 was getting repairs (light rear end...

    CX5 Got hit today in the rear left

    It took awhile to get into my local family run shop that I use, but we’re just like new again. Best part, nothing out of pocket and I had a brand new 2018 Mazda6, fully loaded for the week. What a great rental that was. Got it with only 17 miles on the odometer. Love the color LCD in...

    If you could change one thing...

    I wish my 16’ GT CX5 had a more advanced gauge cluster. I miss the dot matrix LCD multifunction display I had on my previous VW. Simple things like a door or hatch is open... the display tells you which door. Right now I have a single indicator light, so I have to check every single door...

    CX5 Got hit today in the rear left

    Well yeah the whole car is different starting in 17. I like the new design, just impossible to find equipped the way I want it at the price point I was looking at. I ended up with the 2016, even that was at my ceiling for price.

    CX5 Got hit today in the rear left

    It would be cool if someone made an animated turn signal like on the new Audi’s. Even on the mustang it does a little animation.

    CX5 Got hit today in the rear left

    Is that what the Mazda lights are called with the circular led... touring tail lights? Interesting, I have a Grand Touring which should be one step higher. Though I do not have the adaptive cruse control, which I think that package has different lights. Tech package is it called? Yeah I...

    CX5 Got hit today in the rear left

    Since I need a new taillight, can I get then ones with the circular LED’s in then. Obviously I would pay the difference. Just wondering if it’s simply plug and play. 2016 GT - currently without the LED lighting package.

    CX5 Got hit today in the rear left

    It still beeps when in reverse and it detects someone behind. I just hope the guy doesn't change his story when he talks to his insurance. To ME, he said "Im so sorry, that was my fault, I didn't see you". For my side of the story I did have it in reverse to activate the camera, a car went...

    CX5 Got hit today in the rear left

    I had this 2016 CX5 Grand Touring for about a month now. Today someone hit me in a grocery store parking lot backing out. They have no damage at all. They have an older 2004 Honda CRV and it’s tailgate mounted tire did the damage. I wasn’t moving, they were and I was in reverse to move but I...
