Do y'all have any tips for keeping the backup camera clean/unobscured? Mainly talking about during/after the rain, it get water droplets all over it and it's not really usable until you get right up on something. It's been suggested that I put some RainX on it but wondered if you guys have done...

Just curious what others considered. Got mine in 2017 just for model year reference. For me it was: - RAV4 SE (underpowered to be "sporty", interior felt cramped, just couldn't see myself driving it long) - CR-V (I know it's a mom car but it's a great car) - GTI (always wanted one but wanted...

I'm at about 13K miles on my 2017 and the door locks have started making some extra whirring sounds, especially when unlocking. It's pretty noticeable. Mainly happens on the doors but I've also noticed it with the hatch when closing, I just don't open/close the hatch as much. I've tried looking...

If you could change one thing about the CX-5, what would it be? Mine is I wish it had a panoramic sunroof. I always use my sunroof; my dad has one on his X3 and it's awesome. Not trying to start a hardcore discussion, just thought it would be fun to see people's different answers. Gearing this...

Gen 2 Fang LEDs as DRL Alright Gen 2 dudes (and dudettes) does anyone know how to make it so the fang LEDs (just what Ive been calling them, could totally be wrong) are your DRLs? From what I can tell currently the DRLs are just the headlights turned down a notch. Saw another gen 1 today with...

This could just be isolated to me, just wondering if anyone else has had this problem on their 2017 or 2018s? The brakes on my 2017 have been squealing/screeching pretty bad, mainly at low speeds. Doesnt happen all the time, but its more often than not. I started noticing it around 3K miles and...

Anyone ordered anything from mazdaswag.com? Was about to order the rubber cargo mat from BAM Wholesale but this site has it for $10 less (https://tinyurl.com/ybcn67sc). BAM offers free shipping so overall its cheaper there, but mazdaswag has the cargo cover for $178 and BAM is closer to $230 so...

Ive had my CX-5 for almost a year now and Im wanting to put a fresh coat of wax on, wanted to hear tips, tricks, etc for how you guys wax your cars. That includes recommendations for types/brands of wax as well. Ive compounded and waxed my previous cars (2006 Accord and 1992 GTI) but I did both...

This isnt specific to just CX-5s but I wanted to get yalls opinion. Im wanting to get a bike rack for my CX-5 but cant decide between one on the roof and a hitch-mounted platform one (ex: https://tinyurl.com/y9dv256l). I dont currently have a hitch or the roof rails so Im open to either. Pro for...

Hey guys! Im looking to get some accessories (roof rails, floor and rear cargo mats, etc) for my 2017 CX-5 GT and wanted to ask if yall recommended anywhere specific? Ive looked at mazdagear.com but wondered what else was out there, other than dealerships

So I dont really know how to describe this, but Im sure other people with 2017s know what Im talking about. On the back on the rear wheel arches whats up with the little bit that sticks out? Is it something to do with aerodynamics? This is purely out of curiosity, Ive been trying to figure it...

What tips do you guys have for cleaning in a 2017 around the shifter? The black glass stuff (idk how else to describe it) looks nice when its clean but everything Ive tried so far still leaves some sort of smudge/smear. Also, any advice for cleaning the nooks and crannies in the same area?

Possibly considering a Note 8 as a replacement for my iPhone 6+. Does anyone have one (or I guess S8, etc) and how does it work with Mazda Connect? Have a friend with a Camry and she said it doesn't play well with Android, but another friend has an Altima and says her old Android worked even...

Sometimes when I'm closing my sunroof (auto-sunroof) it decides about halfway through to start opening back up. Seems to happen when I'm closing the windows at the same time, but it's not like I can replicate it on demand. Planning on telling the dealership about it when I take it for service in...

Upgraded my iPhone 6+ to iOS 11 back when it first came out and I've had a few weird things happen, haven't talked to the dealer yet but wondered if anyone else has had this happen... - Sometimes when skipping to next song, it "pauses" but when I click play it resumes where the song should be...

I know there was another post about roof rails a while back, but I cant seem to find it again so sorry if this is repetitive. Looking to get roof rails for my CX-5 and I was originally just going to do the factory rails + crossbars, but I like the look of something like the Thule Aeroblade (or...

Hey guys. I've got a 2017 CX-5 GT and I love the LED head and taillights, but it bugs the crap outta me that the license plate lights aren't LED. Has anyone done any converting to LEDs? And if so, what lights did you use? I figured it was an easy swap but I'd love to hear some feedback!
