What have you done to your CX-5 today?

Ordered the Ultra-Gauge MX OBD2 scanner. My first OBD2 tool.

Looking forward to getting effective visibility of the various sensors and conditions in the CX-5. At nearly 130K miles on the odometer, every little bit will help.

Edit: The scanner arrived. Have done the basic initialization. 11-big CAN vehicle, and 26 gauges identified. Am going through the pages to set up which gauges on each page I would initially like to see. Will do the configuration setups later this week. Seems easy enough to use.

First time I've had a car from 0 - 80085. Total cost of repairs since 2016: $800
 
The first time when I noticed that T20 screw for rear view mirror was loose, my 2016 CX-5 is still under B-to-B warranty. I had the Mazda dealer to do the job. The Service Advisor showed me a Service Alert that Mazda advised dealers don’t tighten that T20 screw too much which could break the windshield. At the time the CX-5 windshield breaking from rear view mirror area was a problem. And the Service Alert also suggests don’t apply Loctite to the T20 screw for some reason.
 
If it loosens up again I will probably use some blue Loctite. This was the first time I had to tighten the mirror. I-20 through MS to TX is a torture track.
Unfortunately it’ll get loose again. Loctite? See my previous post.
