I just saw one drive past and it had the headlights on too with the signature LEDs. It's day time and when I looked in my rear vision mirrors tail lights were off so it looks to be in DRL mode with headlights also on. [emoji1304] At least there's a way around it as discussed in this thread...

The CRV might be initially quicker off the line but the CVT is a deal breaker for me. It's ok when driving around in D but once you hit the twistys and switch to semi-manual mode, the CX-5 torque converter 6-speed transmission will be superior in feel, response and driver enjoyment IMO. Don't...

A great idea. Looks good. They've been some advertised on the used markets already with tires which I might go with to put on my first-gen CX-5. I think it suits the first-gen more so than the 2016.5 mags would on new-gen CX-5. It's quite popular here of cars with previous gen models upgraded...

As for fuel economy, there is a difference between claimed and tested figures. It will be interesting to see how close the CRV will achieve its claimed fuel economy figures when it arrives in Australia. From all comparisons of the CX5 vs. its competitors here, the new CX5 have trumped all in...

Since Australian models have all doors with one-touch up/down windows, are they all lit I wonder?

Bugs me too. Why can't it be one-piece like 1st Gen..perhaps one day someone from Mazda can explain.

You could nitpick on any brand's model. You can't have every tech and feature on a 30k car. One could even nitpick on some ergonomics or features of a Bentley Continental if one chooses to do so. Attention to detail in the new CX-5 came foremost from a driver-centric point of view. ie. driver...

I see it now. Thanks mate. **********************************

Yep. Saw that. Good illustration. Where are the amber parkers on a GT? As for the led DRL on the Touring, how is that equivalent light/space used on a GT? **********************************

(2thumbs) yet the same light on the base/mid spec CX-9 are used as halogen DRLs. So many variations.

Thanks for clearing that up. Looks like parkers on yours only additionally light up the ambers at the front. What is the purpose of amber lights? I only see side indicator amber permanently on in the new Civic here is AUS which is weird.

Thanks for the freehand! Are the Aus spec parkers LED? I guess they could act as DRLs like US non-GTs.

Thanks. What I meant was where are the parker lights in the headlight itself? Is it on the inner or outer side of the main projector beam? Are the parkers LED?

Parker Lights. Can anyone point to where they are are in the headlight cluster in a GT and non-GT? Thanks.

It may be possible if you leave it on the mode setting before ACC (instrument lights off) and set transmission to N, the radio should stay on longer than 30 mins but I can't be 100% certain. Love the drive-ins but I need to start my engine close to 30 mins in else my battery goes weak and need...

If it's not battery then I'd say you have a faulty key FOB. Is it the same with a spare key FOB?The car actually tells you if your key FOB is low on battery in the instrument cluster display. ie "Key FOB battery is low" or something or rather. On a side note, the range on the key FOB is...

Good work but how did you cut it to shape cleanly? Problem is that it is very hard to match the same satin chrome colour of the factory trims.

Yes for the first time in Australia, the Tucson did claim the mid-SUV sales position for the month with unusually high numbers. The CX-5 still recording consistent numbers dropping to 2nd for the month but still leading year to date sales. It's a close battle nonetheless in arguably the most...

That could work for sure. **********************************

Looks alright for aftermarket. I'd say it depends on what color CX-5 it goes on.
