I know this a bit of topic, but this brings up a question to me about how to handle the purchase while trading in old car. So do you sort out the tradein first then the purchase price, or the reverse? I get that you don't discuss how you are paying for the car until last but the order of the...

Related to this topic of sky high parts. I have a 2016 (1/2) that I have been using moly oil in since new. When I took it in for oil change in April I didn't pay attention to what the cost would be until checkout. They charged me 20 and change for the oil. Did wonder why bill was so high, but...

I do like to use the adaptive cruise, when it works. Half the time it disengages saying front radar blocked. Took it back to dealer at least 3 times whilst under warranty (2016 1/2). All I got from them was nothing found. I tried everything on my end still got nowhere. So finally learned how to...

I'll check that out. Thanks

Appreciate that, but at my age that isn't really possible. So need to have someone do the work. I used to be able to exchange batteries, but that was then, not now. I live in a area where there isn't much in the line of places to get this done, but a Batteries plus is reasonably close and they...

I want to replace the battery on my 2016.5 before winter. Was wondering if anyone had any experience with a Duracell battery? I looked at the Interstate battery at Costco but they don't install, so that's out for me.

I'm ready to do the 30K maintenance on my CX5, and will tell the service advisor to just follow the book except for two things. First if there is moisture in the brake fluid, then replace. Now the second I an not sure of. And that is doing a rear differential fluid exchange. The manual states to...

Well.. Thats something I didn't think of. So... if I went that route, is data (using Waze) being used all the time, or only when you Have a route set up? I know that with Google maps a trip could be pre installed so no data charges, but of course, nothing real time.

My 3 year standard warranty just ran out and apparently I missed the latest update to the infotainment system. So was wondering should I spend the $$ now to get latest update (my current version is the middle of last year) or maybe wait a year or so for more updated maps?

I am wondering if this would interfere with a cargo cover?

I had a problem a few weeks ago using cruise on my 2016.5 Where I got the above error and the cruise disconnected. Cleaned front of car and windshield ensure no crud was causing the error. Still failed, randomly. So took it to dealer and they saw the error when they plugged the car into there...

OK... You folks have shamed me into changing my own air filter. I guess I just got lazy because I have done this in my previous cars. I looked at it and although not really bad I might as well be done with it. Thanks again, I think ��

Wow! If that $80 is for all 4 wheel alignment then my dealer is trying to make big $$. I haven't bounced off any curbs so that alignment won't happen. I think just the filter, the caliper pin and locks being lubed will be enough. Then it will be interesting to see what went wrong with the...

Thanks for feedback.... I have updated my original post to include prices. As to what was done.... They perfored a 'multipoint vehicle inspection'. A whole slew of checks, such as tires, battery, brakes etc. Lube and oil (I requested and got Mazda Moly oil) Rotate tires Total $87.00. That...

I took my car into the dealer for the 15k service yesterday. It turned out to be a little more interesting than what I expected. On my way to the dealer, about a hour away, I had 3 separate incidents where the cruise control failed. Got a warning on the dash 'FORWARD RADAR BLOCKED'. The cruise...

I have the One plus 5. I asked because my old LG G4 worked fine with that app and it is on 6

I just got a new phone and when transferring apps from old to new I noticed that the MyMazda app wasn't there. Went to Google play and they said my device was not compatible. Is this a Android 7 issue?

The favorites for navigation puts them in the data base as entered. That's not the way I would prefer them to be. My old Garmin arranged them by distance from where I am. I would like that instead. So, is there a way to rearrange the favorites according to my wishes?

New owner with a couple of questions about the nav system. Coming from a Garmin navigation system the Mazda's version is different. 1. Can you import your own poi's? 2. Change or import different voice? 3. I can't figure out how to create a route with a waypoint without actually starting...

Thanks for the ideas. I looked at the possibility of hacking and thought I had better not try it. So will just put up with the nag screen.It's good to know it wasn't something I did or didn't do regarding the extra features of using Bluetooth music. I can, at least connect via USB to see and...
