    Dash Cam Recommendations

    If you’re referring to the dark red rectangular object, it looks like it might be a roof or some other part of a building past the white canopy. I think most rear cameras are meant to be installed at the top of the glass and is angled to point downward. If it was installed at the bottom, the...

    2013~2016 Spare fob lost in CX-5

    Some suggestions on where to search: Check in between the seat and the center console. The space is tight and it might have lodged in between instead of falling to the floor. Check the cut outs in the carpet underneath the seats used to route cables and wires up to the seat. If you have any...

    Continuous Beep From Dash...Even with Battery Disconnected

    Did you lose some electronic/battery powered device in the past that might be hiding under a seat in the car or in the glovebox?

    2018 CX-5 Paint issues with Rear Spoiler

    I never bothered to try. Mine started happening around year 8. I live in S. Florida so the sun is brutal. I feel there are too many variables for you to be able to claim paint defect. Do you know how the paint was cared for by the previous owner? Where was the car located before you took...

    2018 CX-5 Paint issues with Rear Spoiler

    The spoiler on my 2013 was the first place that the paint started to fail.

    New Mazda Logo

    Looks good. Not too drastic of a change like Kia. I think Hyundai needs to update theirs. I know there’s not much you can do with an “H” but I always thought it’s too close to the Honda logo - which was probably the intent.

    Can You Turn Off Power Port In Trunk? 2024 CX-5

    I thought the power port in the back might be an AC 5V plug and they could connect the inverter to the 12V cigarette lighter plug in the front. My mistake.

    Can You Turn Off Power Port In Trunk? 2024 CX-5

    Maybe you can get a DC to AC inverter that plugs into the cigarette lighter and plug your cooler bag into that. I assume that 12V port turns off when the car is off?

    2013 CX-5 Won't Start...Help

    Does your Walmart have an auto center? Mine doesn’t and I’m lucky if I find anyone working in the automotive aisle to help me find the battery let alone install it.

    Guest Driver Alert / Teen Monitoring (Considering a 2021 or 2022 CX-5)

    This is not as integrated and your kid needs to install it on their phone but there’s an app called Life360 that will keep track the user’s car trips, speed, braking and phone usage. It can’t limit the vehicle’s speed, apply curfews or geofencing but if they know you have a way to monitor their...

    That was my thought too.

    Gear shifter light bulb part number for 2014 CX-5?

    Thanks. I had found the first one but he didn’t show all of the critical steps like popping off the cover, disconnecting the power cable or taking out the bulb. He only talked about them. The second video is a lot better and since he showed the steps it doesn’t matter that I couldn’t...

    Gear shifter light bulb part number for 2014 CX-5?

    I have a 2013 and had this light go out a while ago and I had the dealer change it when I brought it in for some other work. It died again a few months later and just left it. Maybe I’ll try to replace it myself. I was hesitant pulling the center console pieces off but….YOLO!

    Is this the spray on product or the one applied by machine?

    Anyone have this gunk in engine bay and know how to clean it?

    I don’t think anyone has mentioned this already…what about tar and bug remover?

    Circles on my infotainment screen? 2024 CX-5

    Ok. I was confused by your comment before mine. Probably mostly by me not reading it carefully enough. Having applied several glass screen protectors on phones and tablets, and seeing that last photo you posted, it looks like air bubbles trapped under the screen. It could just be air pockets...

    Circles on my infotainment screen? 2024 CX-5

    Wait. So you’re saying that the screen protector had a protective plastic cover that was supposed to be removed once installed? That what was causing the circles?

    Deep scratch on gloss black bumper

    If the strip really is not painted perhaps you can find some way to fill the damage and level it. Than you can use PlastiDip to cover the strip.

    (SOLVED) Neither key fob recognized, 2023 CX-5 won't start, all batteries good

    We’ve all been there. I took my kids when they were younger to a Miami Heat night game and drove my CX-5 to downtown Miami and parked in a sketchy lot. When we got back to the car, I noticed my driver’s side window was not in the same position. I turned the knob to the drivers side and tried...

    2018 CX-5 Android head unit installed

    Nice! I have a 2013 CX-5 and I’ve been looking at different options to get Android Auto on a larger screen than my phone when driving. I’m leaning towards a stand-alone unit that you mount on the dashboard somehow. Drawbacks are: - It will obstruct part of your view or if mounted lower will...
