    2020 CX-9 gets a 10 ft lb bump in torque with 93 octane

    Without a doubt! Can't wait to see the torque curves compared to see how they tweaked it. Since the bump is @2500 as opposed to @2000, it may not be very noticeable. It's only a 3.2% increase, at a higher speed. And no mention of HP increase, so the curves should be similar @4000 and above.

    2020 CX-9 gets a 10 ft lb bump in torque with 93 octane

    Only on GT & GTR. Sig still has it. Phones have it. Doesn't almost everyone prefer google maps?

    How do I make my portable CD player work?

    Not directly. You need a player to plug into your aux input. Copy the contents of your flash drive to the player. Done. Easy and cheap.

    Winter/Snow tires

    Sipes are critical on ice, but rubber compound is as well.

    2015 CX-5 6th Gear Popping Out

    I had a 63 VW microbus that did the same thing in top gear... 4th. Obviously a different animal, but I was told it was the synchros. It would do it incessantly. I would keep it in gear with a bungee.

    Errors from morning frost/condensation

    I thought about that, too. But I wonder how long it would take for it to be stolen in many locations.

    2017 CX-5 GT wipers suck

    Two words: aftermarket wipers.

    2017~2025 CX-5 Auto lighting issue

    That is exactly what is does, in terms of the high beam control. The stalk is set to "on", and the HBC temporarily overrides that setting. It's a much better way to think of it.

    2017~2025 CX-5 Auto lighting issue

    Everything you say is true. And your method makes sense, in general AND as a workaround. But the fact remains that OP's problem isn't normal, occurring only in the daylight in the rain. If it were mine, I'd want it to be fixed. I'm curious to see how the dealer resolves it.

    Errors from morning frost/condensation

    Be aware that bright sun can also temporarily disable the cameras. It has to hit it just right, and the outage doesn't last long. That's also normal.

    Lighting

    To be clear, it's only the DRLs [which you said you don't have], and only when in Park, not merely stopped.

    2017~2025 CX-5 Auto lighting issue

    Yours is a little different from mine. For the auto high beams to work, the stalk has to be set to auto AND it must be in the forward position. If the stalk is not forward, the headlights will turn on automatically, but they will not switch to high beams automatically. Auto headlights and...

    2017~2025 Fitting chains/cable chains for 2019 cx-5 signature

    I can't answer your question, neighbor, but would suggest that you may not need them at all if you've got good snow tires. If the inclines make you uncomfortable, you might even consider studded snows even tho they're pretty bad on dry roads, especially if you don't do a lot of highway driving...

    Question on DRL's

    Mine seems to vary. Sometimes it's when I put it in D, sometimes after I've moved just a bit.

    2013~2016 Follow-up: Re: Liftgate Issue

    No idea. :( But if they're all doing the same thing, it seems like it's more likely something in the control circuitry. Just guessing. Could try disconnecting one actuator at a time, to check for bad feedback, but that sounds like a boat load of hassle. You need to find out what activates...

    2019 CX-5 Auto-lock behavior

    Sounds normal to me. At least it's consistent. [Nevertheless, I can't see the advantage to it being setup that way.] Here's a workaround: exit the car, let it autolock by stepping a few feet to the side [not toward the back]. Open the hatch with with hatch button. When you close the hatch and...
