Disabled the auto-folding mirror function for the winter.
The Redtiger hardwire kit I installed for my dashcam has a built-in voltage display, along with an automatic shut-off to cut power to the dashcam if the voltage falls too low. I currently have it set to 12.0v. Since installing the kit...
Hey guys, here's my review of the Redtiger ViewClear 70 2-channel dashcam.
FULL DISCLOSURE: I did not pay for this dashcam. A big thank you to Redtiger for offering me the opportunity to test and review this dashcam.

Most car dealerships are privately owned entities, not owned by the car manufacturers themselves. That means that they (dealerships) can do whatever they want, as long as it doesn't breach whatever agreement they have with the manufacturer, and as long as it doesn't hurt or misrepresent the...
Hardwired the dashcam to the fusebox today. Not the cleanest install, but the box is a little big and the USB-C cable wasn't long enough.

Long story short, after some troubleshooting with Dongar's Live Chat, the current version of the Dongar Pro adapter isn't designed to...

For my CX-9, the OEM tips are spot welded to the exhaust pipe, so I had to get tips that slide over the OEM...
I'm a lot less particular about my tire pressures. Since I have two sets of wheels, I adjust the pressures when the wheels are swapped over. Aside from that, I just do a visual check before my commutes to work or before driving home, and I'll check pressures whenever I do any basic maintenance...
For the CX-5 and CX-9 turbo engines, Mazda has never (and currently still doesn't) require or even recommend full synthetic. As far as I know, there are no TSBs or anything of the like instructing techs to switch to full synthetic to solve "turbo issues".
I do agree that 5W-30 full synthetic...
