    Mazda dealer question please read. Thanks

    I welcome rock strikes personally, adds character. Just say no, go out and buy some Klasse Sealant Glaze and apply that yourself. My dealer had it on the shelf in the parts dept, if they only knew lol I also use Klasse All In One regularly on my cars, great stuff not cheap though but is has...

    CD-5 sport questions

    +1 on liquid silver and congrats on you decision. Personally I would not get the upgrade stereo if at all possible (I don't think it is...), I would add this later with the rearview cam/Bluetooth/nav from an aftermarket HU from JVC, Alpine or the like which is what I plan on doing at some point...

    Roof rack and wind noise

    Hardly, your driving style and terrain will have more effect than these. Hell opening a window would probably be worse, those things are pretty aero looking and low to the surface that I can't imagine them reducing the overall drag on the car that measurably as to make a noticable difference in...

    Square Push Button Dash Switch?

    I tried to find the switch panel in the manual or a better pic of the GT dash, but came up empty. My thought was that if one of the blank covers could be removed, that would form the basis of the switch by placing a simple pushbutton type behind that piece so that the blank button would mash the...

    Square Push Button Dash Switch?

    Other than sourcing a replacement switch set and modifying that (along with the original switch bank) to your needs, have you considered the little cubby below it for a switch location? It's apparently the spot for the SD card that comes with the Tom-Tom nav kit and unless you had thoughts on...

    Buyers Remorse

    I wanted a bare bones MT in silver because I wanted to maximize the mpg potential and I wanted a MT after driving ATs for some time, sure some of the frills would be nice but I had a comfort level cost wise and I wasn't interested in going beyond that, soafter a month and a half I am happy with...

    heated mirrors on touring

    Sounds cool. I'm on the fence about the vibration issue... The more reports, the better I say!

    6MT Endangered?

    Same here! I also considered a Jetta sportwagon, but there was nothing in my area that wasn't stupid expensive or had an MT.

    Navigation and audio at the same time

    Ah to have a garage... *sigh* Use a small piece of urethane foam maybe, like the tear away stuff from a Pelican case or similar...

    Resuming Playback with 2014 CX-5 GT Tech Stereo and other issues

    Read this post from member HandA, it may yield some insight for you. As for the iPod question, that surprises me since my bare-bones model does, well as much as the interface supports anything...

    Mirror defrosters don't seem to work on m Touring

    My 2005 Elantra Hatch has them, granted it was the top trim level for that vehicle but it is an economy car nonetheless. Legend has it that you may be able to sort these out for your touring, read through this to best determine (if you haven't already done so)...

    Navigation and audio at the same time

    Is that what that utterly useless pocket is truly for????!!!! Ha, too bad I have no need or interest in a Nav system, I'd get that thing out of there in an instant. I was wondering why it was so poorly designed for a cubby: Odd shape, level with the car and not very deep, it gave me little...

    What do you all think of the sky blue color for the cx5?

    I saw one on the road, the cute girl test driving one the day I stopped by to look at the selection before I bought my liquid silver Sport lol Her and her dad were looking at one one the sales floor and i was as well, the salesman didn't know the weight so I answered the question for him! It...

    Windshield scratch repair

    Try cleaning it with denatured alcohol on the off chance the mark is just residue from the plastic. If that doesn't remove it and the glass is indeed scratched, I'd suggest going with HandA's suggestion and you will need to use a buffer to work out the scratch, as working it by hand will only...

    Windshield scratch repair

    Hahahaha yeah I need to improve my reading skills... Given the poster hit the glass with the sponge side first that likely sopped the grit away, I'm betting the glass is fine. It's takes a good bit to scratch glass and a few swaths of raw plastic I don't think would do much. But we'll hear back...

    Windshield scratch repair

    Ummmm that sounds very odd. So the complete part was missing or was the squeegee piece not there? And you've been using the wipers in the time you've had it and didn't notice something was amiss? Here's the deal, the only thing that will scratch glass in this scenario is dirt, grit or anything...
