    2021 CX-5 Key Battery Low

    You may want to go ahead and reread the link you gave. Nowhere in that article does it state that the system operates in the way that you suggest. Just the opposite in fact. As for the security risk of having the doors automatically unlock on approach? That's true but that's why automatic...

    Adding GPS SD card to a 2022 CX-5 Turbo

    I bought a used 2016 MX back in 2019. It didn't come with a card, and I bought one on Amazon, $80 at the time. The first card that I received didn't work AT ALL. I contacted the seller and was sent a new card, one that worked this time. After inserting the card in the slot on the MX, with the...

    2021 CX-5 Key Battery Low

    If the system operates as you say, then why do we need to press a button at all? As soon as the car senses your fob nearby, the doors should be able to unlock automatically. This could be an option that the user sets up in the lock behavior section of the infotainment system. Our Mazdas can't...

    2013~2016 CX-5 Bose Infotainment Settings Gone

    I've said it before, and I'll say it again here. Both of my Mazdas, a 2016.5 CX GT and a 2016 MX Club have the original firmware and both have ZERO issues. I occasionally use the Nav and I listen to music via flash drives almost exclusively. No problemo.

    2021 CX-5 Key Battery Low

    Did you read post #28? Where are you getting your info, especially the part about the low-freq signal that you believe is being generated by the car 24/7? What would be the purpose of this, compared to how I said the system operates? Having this low-freq signal always on would be a security...

    2021 CX-5 Key Battery Low

    If this was the case, then there would be no need to press action buttons on the car or the fob. You would be able to just walk up to the car and open the door. "the car puts out a low frequency signal that creates a field around it that is not very strong." What would be the purpose of this...

    2021 CX-5 Key Battery Low

    How does the faraday box prevent the fob from draining? If you're thinking that the fob transmits all the time, I believe that you're wrong. From an engineering standpoint it wouldn't make sense. BUT, if that is the case, how does the bag prevent the fob from transmitting? Is doesn't and it...

    As long as it makes it past the warranty period and as long as the dealerships 'appear' to be doing their due diligence in taking proper care of your warranted vehicle.

    Saw dealership using this oil for 2017 CX-5

    There's only ONE reason that this dealership would be using an oil that's not specifically recommended by the manufacturer. It's cheaper for them. They most certainly wouldn't be using it because they feel that it's somehow better for their customer's cars, now, would they?

    Help! Dropped engagement ring into 2024 CX-5 Defroster vent

    Good luck to the OP! Let us know how it goes. IF you can spot the ring, and that's a BIG If. perhaps if you have a shop vac, or similar, you can fashion a small tube attached to the vac and use the tube to grab the ring by suction and get it out of the ductwork that way?

    Oil change warning permanently on display

    Ah, you were talking about the maintenance app on your cell phone, right? I misunderstood; I was speaking of the app on the infotainment system. I have zero experience with the phone app since my car doesn't support this.

    Oil change warning permanently on display

    On my CX there are actually 3 'warning' indicators that may need to be reset. Oil change - fixed or flex Maintenance reminder Tire rotation. If you reset one but an indicator still shows, one of the others is in need of being reset as well.

    Holy cowabunga, Mazda plugs are $$$

    Believe it or not, I'm still on the original OEM wipers and they're working just fine. The CX has been garage kept its entire life, so that helps.
