    In the market concerned about Cracked Cylinder Heads

    Just get a 17. Best of the CX5's IMO. Basically the reliable 16 + the new tech of the next gen - CDA = THE CX5. :D

    The stealer sure wants a lot for all around brake work

    "Just do it yourself!" So tired of that every single time. hahaha Yea, we know it's SO easy... I have zero desire to do that. Many of us simply aren't going to do it ourselves. Why are you at a dealer?

    You quote my post about "Car companies figured out how to do start/stop without damaging a turbo" and agreed with me. Then say you are glad you don't have it...so your turbo will last longer? 30-90 seconds sitting at a light is not damaging any part of your car. This is not a "heating cooling...

    Car companies long ago figured out how to make this work without damaging your turbos. 60 seconds at a light isn't going to cause any damage.

    Disable daytime running lights?

    Not sure why you quoted me Moonlighter? I am very familiar with them. In fact I thought my car had them when I bought it because of that very video from Mazda Aus. That was 2016. We still don't have it here. :(

    I know what those marks are on the headliner. They are from bike tires. People hauling bikes in the back. Ask me HOW I know. :D Also someone said NO to plugs? Uh...pretty sure Mazda says plugs every 70K?

    Oh, and tips: - Get a Nav card off of Amazon or eBay. Even if you don't use it, it's nice for the cross road feature. - If you are on a FM/AM radio station, push and hold the * (Favorite button) to add that station to your favorites.

    Just got a 2016.5 CX-5 - Tips, Tricks and MPG

    Just want to comment on the confusion about 16.5 - the changes were so ridiculously minor on the .5 it truly surprises me that Mazda chose to differentiate it. It was just a few items that were moved to STANDARD instead of OPTIONS. Example a 2016.5 Sport is different from a 2016: because it...

My dealership actually had a setup with a local installer back in the day where the guy would install it for you before you picked up your car at the dealership. All you really need do is call a local...

    How to stop worrying and trust adaptive cruise control?

    Had the same anxiety in the beginning. (Note on my Volvo...don't have on my Mazda). I absolutely love it but you've got the right answers here: If you're not comfortable in a situation then you shouldn't be using it. And there are still times a year later where I will be coming up on stopped...
