    Remote Start Frustration

    The issues with CX5 remote start are all related to it being done via Internet. That has just too many potential points of failure - cell phone connectivity may be bad (resulting in long logins and failures to send commands to the vehicle) and car connectivity may be bad as well. Anyone tried /...

    CX-5 2021 GTR - Rear sound volume extremely low?

    Went to the dealer and they said there's no problem Compared to another similar car (Carbon), with balance shifted all the way back that one did sound a bit more loud vs mine, but they didn't see that as an issue It's one of those cases when it could be attributed to my mental issue but I know...

    Cost of Mazda Windshield with Heads Up Display?

    I got a chip that I repaired temporarily but it starts to grow, need a new HUD windshield. I assume with $1k deductible there's no point to choose Safelite vs Dealer since replacement is going to cost above $1k wherever?

    Mazda specific OBD2 reader recommendations?

    Trying this elm237 clone and iPhone app Car Scanner on my 2021 CX5. Iphone connects to the scanner just fine, however the scanner fails to connect to ECU.

    Mazda app - What is it trying to tell me?

    How do I interpret this? Is my service due in 3400 miles and that's soon? (my mileage is less than 10k/yr) And it includes the recommended oil change? What is going to happen in 897 miles? What in the world is the maintenance milestone?

    2023 CX-5 Turbo vs Premium Plus

    2017 is clearly not a Turbo, so can't compare Speaking of which I have to admit that Turbo filled with 93 becomes a completely different beast. As 93 gets closer to $4 I switched to it. Just returned from a NYC-Washington roundtrip, mostly at 74mph but with some city driving and congestions...

    CX-5 Adaptive Cruise Control…How often do you use it?

    When I drive about 30mph on adaptive CC with no cars ahead of me, then approach a car standing still at the red light, it fails to detect the car almost 100% of times Is that expected?

    What is the purpose of a HUD?

    it takes 2 seconds to tell AA/CP "navigate to starbucks" and it goes, and it takes forever to type that in and search into stock nav. It was tolerable in pervious CX-5 generation when they had touch screens, but typing with a dial is insanely slow However I really appreciate built-in nav in...
