Hi there does anyone know if 59.00.504 NA is the latest infotainment version for the US? That's what my 2018 CX-5 came with factory intalled, but my Mazda dealer is telling me that unlike in the past, infotainment OS upgrades are no longer available. The only available upgrade is Apple Carplay /...

It's been 4 months since I courageously gave 2018 CX-5 a try, thanks to the encouraging feedback from users like Xeler8ing, Anchorman, and more, withh their assurance that the second generation CX-5 can be trouble free at least for some car owners. Indeed I'm very happy with the car so far. I...

Can someone confirm that the windshield mounted laser sensor in 2016.5 and earlier models (used for SBS & SCBS) has been removed in the new CX-5? The manual seems to suggest SCBS in the 2nd gen now relies on FSC (camera) alone. SBS seems better, at least it still has front radar (in addition to...

Has anyone tried this on a CX-5? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06X9RPLLS/?tag=m20b7-20 My set just arrived, but very hesitant to put them on. After placing the order I read about aftermarket LEDs (in general, not the above product) interfering with car's normal operation. Is this a valid concern...

Hi, I've been using the same USB stick on Mazda Connect for 2 years without issues. Upgraded to 59.00.504 NA 2 months ago, but no issues until today, so this unlikely has to do with the software upgrade. Today, all of a sudden it keeps replaying the same song over again. Even if I manually...

Do we have a thread on real-world experience with SCBS/SBS activation on the CX-5? Following examples apply to the US & similar road system only: I'm particularly interested in situations where an oncoming vehicle, stopped on green waiting for a gap to make a left, suddenly decides to jump on...

Obviously Mazda is already keeping a list of new features for 2018 rollout and beyond. With dusts finally settled for the 2017 spec, anyone cares to "predict" what can be expected for 2018+ MY? Any insights will be valuable to those still in wait-n-see. Grill change (back to non-chicken wire...

Hi, my CX-5 comes with 19" alloy wheels. Debating between 17" vs. 19" winter tires (buying a new set of rims in the first case, reusing OEM rims in the latter). Wonder if you agree with this analysis, or have something to add. Thx! 1. Pros of 19" winter tires (Cons of 17"): a - can reuse 19"...

Finally decided to pay TomTom my long overdue ransom in order to cure the badly stale map in my CX5. Was asked to pick my device but I'm not sure if it should be NB1 or NB1 LIVE. 2 questions: #1 Is it true that the TomTom device on every CX5 is an NB1 and that "NB1 LIVE" simply refers to the...

Dear 2016 CX5 owners, does the new infotainment unit display Unicode characters like non-English song titles?

I have been backing up NB1 diligently in TomTom HOME after every map and/or app update. Just wondering, if the original SD card is lost during transit (between car & PC) how can I restore saved image to new SD card. Without original SD card TomTom HOME won't detect any "device" and won't allow...

Is there a way to disable the sunroof say, during rainy seasons, to avoid accidentally opening it? Its control is too close to the cabin light switch.
