    quiet tires

    You're getting 78% nitrogen with compressed air anyway, what's a few more percent going to really give you?

    2017~2025 Fuel Use / Altitude Two Questions

    Altitude displayed in feet to 1000, then in tenths of a mile, unless you take out the SD card, then it'll display in feet forever.

    16.5 CX-5 - service cover hardware for oil change

    I get those fasteners and clipsandfasteners.com. They're about $3.00 each from the dealer. I got a box of 25 for around $11.00. The same fastener is used in multiple places. They have drawings of each fastener.

    I don't know about running cooler, but it makes me feel better knowing it's clean.

    What have you done to your CX-5 today?

    Wetted with light spray from hose, then sprayed with Adam's APC, used lugnut brush to agitate dirt, then rinsed. Used air gun to dry. On cold engine with alternator covered with plastic bag. Low pressure water only. Then dressed interior vinyl and rubber.

    OEM Trailer Hitch

    I inquired about a hitch. My dealer referred me to a local U-Haul. He says they don't install hitches at the dealer.

    What have you done to your CX-5 today?

    Washed, clayed, sealed. Then (should have done this first) cleaned engine bay and dressed rubber and vinyl/plastic pieces. She is almost too clean to drive.

    New CX-5; 655 miles. Looking for tips on initial wax, care, etc.

    The only Adam's product, so far, that I wasn't pleased with, was the Iron Remover. The Ceramic Spray Coating works well for me. I haven't done any severe tests after applying it, but I have washed a few times and it is holding up. Perhaps in a different climate the coating performs differently.

    New CX-5; 655 miles. Looking for tips on initial wax, care, etc.

    I've had fantastic results using products from Adam's Polishes. Car Wash, Clay Bar, H2O Guard and Gloss, Detail Spray, Waterless Wash, Buttery Wax, etc. Products for all parts of the car. Many are pH neutral, all made in USA. They cost more than the other guys, but you get what you pay for.

    Upset beyond belief, 3-day old 2019 Signature damaged by detailer!

    I've done quite a bit of machine polishing and am curious as to how anyone could screw-up that badly. Glad you got your situation rectified. I wonder how that car is going to look after they get it "fixed".

    VIN lookup has bad information

    On https://driving-tests.org/vin-decoder/ my decoded VIN says I have a turbo on my 2016 CX5 GT. I don't...I don't believe it was offered (not sure). I guess you can't believe everything you read on the Internet.

    Compass grayed out

    Yeah, the Speed Toggle, when reset, returns the compass to functionality.

    Compass grayed out

    I may have just found the answer on another forum. If you have enabled the touchscreen while in motion option then the compass ceases to function. The only way (so far) to make the compass work is to factory reset to erase the tweak. I will try to uncheck the box which allows the touchscreen in...

    Compass grayed out

    First, I apologize if this question has been asked and answered before, but I couldn't find it with a search. On my 2016 GT AWD... After ejecting the SD card the display shows latitude, longitude, and elevation, those options are great. However, the compass located just above is grayed out and...

    How fast does your CX5 go and how does it handle?

    I was on cruise at 100 mph for a few minutes in Utah. Plenty of pedal left, but wife was in the car. Handled very nicely.
