    ACP Issue - ACP Randomly Disconnects

    I've had ACP installed for about a month now, and an issue has arisen wherein the ACP randomly disconnects. Sometimes disconnecting the cable and re-connecting it works. But sometimes I end up with a message on my infotainment screen saying something along the lines of "ACP is not responding" or...

    Ambient Temperature for Recommended Tire Pressure

    Last weekend I took the winter tires/wheels off the CX-9 and put the OEM tires/wheels back on. Since they'd been sitting for a couple months, I wanted to make sure that the OEMs have the appropriate tire pressure. Now before I go on, let me tell you what I understand to be true re tire...

    Authentication Failure - iPhone via USB Connection

    Hello, Hi, and All That Jazz

    A couple weeks ago I traded in my '14 Mazda6 for a more family-oriented '15 CX9 Touring AWD with the technology package (and "free" recreational accessory package). I'm a long-time Mazda fan, having owned many many many of them (over my somewhat short life . . . 3 Miatae, a 3, a 6, an RX-8, an...

    Couple o' questions re turbo

    First, for those who have added turbo, particularly to the P5 - how bad is the torque steer? The MazdaSpeed Protege review in C&D mentioned torque steer as a downer Second - how much horsepower can the stock tranny handle? IOW, if I upgrade to turbo, what else will I need to upgrade? TIA.

    This may be old news

    but the "specs" on the 2003 P5 are out. Some interesting things: (1) The ABS/side airbag package now available without having to get a moonroof ($490 option) (2) Moonroof now packaged with 6-disc changer ($690 for package) (3) Yet the 6-disc changer is still available as stand-alone option...

    Debadging

    Has anyone de-badged the back of their P5? How does it look? Could you post pics? I did it w/ my old Audi A4 and I really liked the result ... a very very clean rear end.
