seats

I am sharing the car with my wife. Because we need different adjustment for the seat, we use the power-seat feature quite often. Lately, the power-seat's motor started to make louder noise. The motor is still able to get the job done but with such loud noise. I have looked under the seat and...

Hey there, didn't see a forum area for seats...etc. Dang lever to raise/lower the driver seat has stopped ratcheting and only goes up one or back down one. Had car valet'd yesterday and the shrimp cranked it all the way up. Wont go back down. I'm a big/tall guy as well. Anyplace I can go to for...

First off the obligatory but important safety warnings when dealing with the air bag system on any vehicle: Before disconnecting an air bag connector, always turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position, disconnect the negative battery cable, and then wait for 1 min or more to allow the backup...

Hello, I'm chasing seat covers for my 2013 CX5 Maxx, preferably ones within Australia as postage will be quicker. Any advice and opinions would be greatly appreciated!! Will consider overseas too just thought Australia might be a good place to start! (2thumbs)

Somehow we figured out a way to push the 2nd row larger seat in a 2010 CX9 all the way forward on the track and now it won't go back. This isn't the seat back push down/forward and stuck, but the seat unit on the track and stuck forward. Has anyone else down this and figured out a way to get...

After just returning from a 12 hr road trip just thought I'd share some comments.... I bought the cx5 end of Aug 2013. I am very happy with it, especially driving around suburbia.... But commented before about the hard seats. I was worried about this trip, but did well...until about 7 hours...

Just brought my new 2014 Mazda6 6-speed manual home over the weekend and loving it. Traded my 2006 Honda Civic 5-speed manual - a huge upgrade! I got the leatherette seats (not by choice) - can anyone recommend car seat covers that won't cost an arm and a leg? I have a dog and I'd like to...

Hi everyone, I've just picked up my new CX5 - and have a question about protecting the interior (especially the seats) The dealer has recommended Smartkote carpet and fabric coating (http://www.motorone.com/car_care/smartkote.php), but it doesn't come cheap (approx $800)... does anyone know...

Hey everyone. I want to know if any of you have racing seats installed in your MP5, if you do, leave pics. Thank you.

I'm looking for some used parts for my sedan. 4 x Spring seats fronts & rears 4 x Dust boots/shield 4 x retaining washers and top nuts Can I use washers and nuts from any hardware store or is it better to go with used stock parts? Does our stock set up come with spring seats for the top...

I currently own a 3 and am not able to fit my daughters infant car seat in the back unless the person up front slides their seat waaaay up to the point of being uncomfortable and unsafe. Perfect excuse to go test drive the cx-5 I've been dreaming about! But I'm having the same problem! Maybe my...

It's just now getting cold in Arkansas and we've started using the seat warmers. We notice that the seats barely get warm - we contacted our local dealer who sais that we have to be sitting in the seats for the warmers to heat up.....obviously we have been sitting after pre warming the car but...

Hi All, My CX-5 has the manual lift/lower driver's seat (Fabric seats - not motorised). Had the car since April and I'm now on my second driver's seat. The first seat kept sinking and would go down about 50mm over a month. It mainly sinks at the rear of the seat and you have to keep jacking...

I tried searching, but couldn't find anything so sorry if this is a duplicate post. I was wondering if anyone else's middle seatbelt doesn't retract all the way into seat when it's not in use? All of my previous Mazda's have done this, but on our CX-5 there is about a foot of seatbelt that...

Two of the shoulder belts in our 2011 CX-9 Grand Touring recently developed tears in the webbing, approx 1/2" long and perpendicular to the edge of the belt, looking almost as if they were cut. Has this happened to anyone else? I'm about to get deep into it with my dealer and Mazda, as the...

Hello All! First post here. I bought a 2009 CX-9 Touring about 6 months ago and have been greatly enjoying the drive. I have some general questions which I am hoping you folks can answer for me. Can I (easily) override the auto-dim dashboard lights when I turn the parking/headlights on while...

I have a 2010 Mazda 3. I am trying to figure out how to remove the center seat belt in the back because it gets in the way when I put the seats down. The 2 outer seat belts I am able to put to the side when the seats are down, but the center seat belt (the one that comes down over your shoulder)...

Hi everyone, I'm new here and was hoping to find out some info on my truck. I have a 1997 Mazda B4000 ext. cab and I was wondering if it would be possible to install a bench seat and where could I purchase one? I have a 8 month old daughter and am needing to put her in the vehicle but due to the...

I have the AWD Touring with MoonRoof; and fortunate that I have only one minor complaint so far and that's the front head rests. A little uncomfortable.
