    2013~2016 CX-5 Oil Burn

    That is not normal. I have a 2016 Touring AWD and I've never had to add any oil between oil changes. Did you account for the oil in the filter? Note where the level is now on the dipstick and then check it every week and record it, see if it's actually using/burning oil. Did you partner...

    Mazda3 doesn't seem to want to start immediately?

    Harbor Freight sells decent products but I wouldn't go with their low end stuff especially when there's the risk of damage/fire. I've bought many things from them and they sell mid-range products, good for the DIY'er.

    Phone echo and text messages not playing

    Never was an option to respond, you need to pull over and send the text through your phone.

    Anyone get an SD card for the CX-70/90 from Amazon?

    I think the HUD will show the stop signs, speed limits when it can detect them. I think the SD card is needed when you pull out onto a road and there's no speed limit sign in view. The system will pull that from the SD card as well as any Nav info required.

    I wish Mazda would bring back the original RX-7

    Had an 86 RX-7, year they changed from the smaller version. Think the 86 won Motor Trend car of the year. Dealers would not bargain but I wanted one. So I paid MSRP. Didn't like the look from the back with the large window so I ordered the black louvers for the back. Completely changed the...

    Sorry about the angle, I usually access this forum on my laptop but to send the pic I did it from my phone.

    Phone echo and text messages not playing

    That's exactly what I'm saying. I don't use AA, never did, don't need it and my phone works perfectly and my text msgs come through, even the text msgs are spoken in a sexy voice when the car is moving as well as being displayed on the screen.

    *Unpopular Opinion* I just got greased at the dealer and I don't care

    Hope your hip replacement goes well. Hip pain sucks. For that matter any pain sucks. Good Luck.

    Issue with certain radio stations not coming in and missing SD card

    Are you talking about FM or AM stations? I have a 16 also and haven't noticed anything too bad about the radio. Do you have the Bose radio or the non Bose ? You can tell by looking at the speaker on the drivers door. It should say Bose.

    Phone echo and text messages not playing

    Disable Android Auto, try your phone just through the Bluetooth function. If it works fine and you can receive text msgs, (text and voice) then the problem points to AA. I just use the bluetooth connection for my phone and voice is clear and text msgs come through fine.

    Is this a symptom of the Ghost Touch?

    Mine hasn't done it again since I first reported it back in June. There's some infotainment settlement from Mazda. It may provide a fix for your problem. I would contact the dealer, see if it applies to your problem. I have an extended warranty so if it pops up again and stays I'll have Mazda...

    Mazda3 doesn't seem to want to start immediately?

    They're not the same. The booster takes the place of another car when your battery is dead and you need a jump. It's not a trickle charger. ' I think the 1A (amp) means it will maintain the current state of the battery but not increase it. 2A will slowly charge the battery. When I put the...

    Mazda3 doesn't seem to want to start immediately?

    A trickle charger, also known as a battery maintainer, is a low-amperage device that slowly charges a battery to maintain its charge over time, especially useful for batteries that sit idle for extended periods. It's designed to prevent overcharging and maintain battery health, rather than...

    Mazda3 doesn't seem to want to start immediately?

    Mine stops and works exactly the way you describe. Once it's fully charged I might hear it kick on every couple hours for a few minutes. Maybe the old ones didn't stop but the new ones do.

    Mazda3 doesn't seem to want to start immediately?

    Probably would be a good idea to invest in a battery charger if you have a garage or a carport or can park close to your house. I have a small one that will charge quick or just at a trickle. I usually leave it on trickle during the weekend since I can always take our other car. You can get them...

    Mazda3 doesn't seem to want to start immediately?

    Doubtful. Another thing to check is the battery cables. Make sure they're tight and corrosive free. If there's white material on the cables where they connect to the battery terminals clean them off and apply some grease or vasoline.
