Using your light will come on statement, if a car is approaching from the rear say at 80 mph and you are at 50 mph, 30 mph faster than you, that is 13.41 meters per second so if it should alert at 5 seconds away that is 67 meters which is out of the 50 m range so it should alert when it comes in...

The detection range is nowhere near 164 ft or about 10 car lengths, I am lucky to get 3 car lengths...

I wonder why the 2020 owners manual says the following because mine does not work like it says: "The detection area on this system covers the driving lanes on both sides of the vehicle and from the rear part of the front doors to about 50 m (164 ft) behind the vehicle. "

The 2013 is the Tom Tom unit and different from 2016 and up. I would try junk yards.

Either It has gotten better or I have got more use to it. Compared to my 2013 and 2016 the 2020 has a shorter range and it usually does not detect a vehicle that I am passing in the lane to my right so maybe it thinks I know it is there since I just passed it, maybe it is more intelligent. The...

The info shows a GT with an option for Premium but no info on what that option includes?

Some Models covers the difference in different countries that may not be in US info.

I used to do that on my 2016 until the key fell out of my pocket on the floorboard. I did not know it and locked the key in the car.

With AC on CD is still engaged if going down slight or more grade at or below speed limits. It seems to always be available waiting for the right light load. If you take your food off the gas at speed it goes to a complete cut of all four and comes back with all four at first then according to...

How many of you have accidentally bumped the panic button and had the horn go off? It is the same as the trunk opening.

No one has mentioned that in cold weather and short trips you will likely gain some fuel in the oil until the engine is taken on a long enough run to evaporate off the gas. Half between the top and bottom holes is fine in that case as it gives you some space for the oil/fuel gain...

Listen under the hood while idling. Sometime you can hear a vacuum leak. Since you did not have a torque wrench and was concerned you put the plugs in too tight, you may have stripped some threads in the soft aluminum head or and are getting a leak around the plug which would be worse at idle...

The small difference is likely a difference in the adjustment.

Good chance something is bumping the open button on the keyfob. I took mine apart and cut off the small plastic projecting from the back of the open trunk button to stop this. I think it is a bad design as it is easier to push the open button on the back of the trunk than to fish out the...

Just helped a friend buy a used car at a big BMW dealer in Atlanta, they are low on new cars and cars are selling well since a brief slowdown in Feb, would not take a personal check but took a credit card for 5K to hold deal on Saturday, senior successful sales guy planned to take vacation soon...

I have heard that even set at RECIRC a significant amount of fresh air is mixed in due to the need to keep the cabin slightly pressurized to avoid engine fumes, leaking exhaust fumes etc. entering the cabin. I think it is somewhere in the safe design requirements for autos and some fresh air...

If it is leaking, yes. If not, the new one may not be as good as the 2013. A spring keeps the tension, a built in oil shock stops vibration.

If the windshield has been replaced, they might not have reinstalled it properly or used the wrong windshield...

EPB is an issue on a few 2016s but a little oil seepage does not have much effect IMO. Mazda did add cylinder deactivation which is a debatable addition, but there is a lot of new teck in the car itself - temp gage, more/better dash info, seat memory, seat ventilation, cross traffic...

I purchased a 2013 that my daughter in law drives now with 100K+ miles on it, a 2016 that my daughter drives with 60K on it and a new 2020. All are GTs no problems other than batteries, tires, brake pads and wife banging into things like garage door and curbs etc. The 2020 Blind Spot...
