    How in God’s name do you disable the auto-folding mirrors?

    Thanks but those instructions are not working for me. The only question I have is perhaps I need to lift the window switches vs press them down, or maybe I’m not switching the ignition “on” to the right setting.

    How in God’s name do you disable the auto-folding mirrors?

    I have done the following: 1.) turn ignition to “on” position. Doing so requires two presses of the ignition switch with your foot off the brake pedal so the car doesn’t start 2.) make sure window lock is engaged / pressed in 3.) press front passenger side window switch; rear passenger window...

    Updated version of the Infotainment System Available (70.0.0.352B NA N) for North America

    Just had my dealer update the Mazda Connect software to 70.00.352 this morning during an oil change. All seems fine. My only major complaint with the system is slow boot time (especially when using Bluetooth) and the system randomly would crash and reboot. Probably happened at least 5-10...

    Long Drive Comfort

    I own one of those pillow things posted on this thread and it works well. Use it only for long trips. Very effective.

    CX-5 GT-R Sloppy Shift Into Second When Cold

    Our 2019 Signature doesnt do this. I will say though that our Jeep Grand Cherokee shifts hard for the first few miles when its cold outside. Then its pretty good after that. Just watch it for a while and ask your dealer to look into it at your next service. Drop it off the night before and ask...

    2019 Signature Vibration/Shake

    I would also ask to do this in any car with an empty passenger front seat. You will see it moving. Trust me.

    2019 Signature Vibration/Shake

    If anyone test drove a new CX5 less than 10 miles and especially in cold weather, Im willing to bet any vibration was caused by slightly under inflated tires and flat spotting. Goes away once tires are properly inflated and warmed up.

    Is Sport Mode faster?

    I like sports mode but rarely use it. The throttle tip-in is more responsive and the transmission stays on the bubble better than in normal mode. It makes driving the cx-5 in twisties or around town a little more fun. But again, I rarely use it. The transmission in this vehicle is extremely well...

    2017~2025 Updated review on my 19 Signature

    Yeah, our fobs are programmed to the seat memory so thats helpful. Power steering wheel adjustment and steering wheel memory would be nice but I agree thats not a big deal. The lack of side mirror memory is perplexing though. Every car Ive had thats had seat memory also saved mirror memory.

    2019 Signature Vibration/Shake

    Only read the first OPs post. Our signature has a hint of vibration in the same range on the highway. Its funny that you ended up solving your vibration problem with new Michelin tires. Ive done exactly the same with two other cars, lol! I pretty much only buy Michelin branded tires now as Ive...

    2017~2025 Updated review on my 19 Signature

    Updated review on my 19 Signature Weve got almost 4000 miles on our XX-5 Signature. Heres my thoughts on a few select items: -gas mileage is still meeting expectations. In almost exclusively local driving, we average 20-21 mpg. Highway nets 27-right on the EPA estimate. I have no doubt that...

    What kind of real world mpg are owners getting?

    780 mile round trip in the Midwest this past weekend. Almost all highway, minimal traffic and cruise set between 68-78 depending on the road. 26.4 mpg. Our Jeep Grand Cherokee with the hemi gets about 21 mpg on the same route under the same conditions. Not a doubt in my mind that an 8 speed...

    What kind of real world mpg are owners getting?

    Update: its been cold and miserable here in the Midwest over the past two weeks. We are averaging a little over 20 mpg in almost exclusively short trips, local driving. As a comparison, my Jeep Grand Cherokee with the hemi V8 is getting about 18 mpg but thats in mixed highway/city (probably...

    Question for turbo owners: what octane do you use?

    Death, taxes and extreme passion expressed on the internet about the whats/whys/hows concerning the octane fuel people like to use in their vehicles....these are things that are certain, LOL!

    Question for turbo owners: what octane do you use?

    Been running 87 but wife just accidentally put 89 in. Will probably check out a few tanks of 93 especially given the low prices lately. But honestly, we havent been pushing the car hard at all. It drives so nicely with moderate gas pedal angle that well likely stick mostly with 87.

    2017~2025 Two questions about my 2019 CX-5 Signature

    I think so. You just have to turn the mirro adjustment joystick all the way to the right (past the dentent to adjust the right/passenger side mirror)

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    Sounds like a great deal to me! Better than I did. How did you get a rebate? Are you a previous Mazda owner? There were no rebates available other than the Mazda Loyalty rebate, which we didnt qualify for since weve never owned a Mazda before. Nice job and congrats on your new vehicle!

    '19 CX-5 Sig. - 500 mile report card

    I will say there is no doubt an 8 speed auto would net 30 mpg on the hwy.
