Thanks, Charlie. I've had my Mazda CX 5 for almost a year now with a little over 500 miles on it and I still have not figured out everything. This video surely helps. This senior citizen thanks you.
Thanks! Some great tips in there, a couple I didn't know or wasn't quite sure about. Another great one you could mention in future is that you can assign your seat position memory setting to your key fob. Just adjust the seat, press the "Set" button on the seat, but instead of pressing 1 or 2, you hold the unlock button on your key fob until you hear a beep. So next time you unlock your car with that key fob, and the seat has been moved by someone, it'll adjust to your position memory within 40 second of unlocking the car.
This video should be remade with this feature shown, seriously. I have a '18 6 signature. Prob won't work but if it does I didn't k ow about that and I know everything about my car..
How cool! My wife has a Mazda3 Astina (top of the line here, prob equivalent to the Signature) with the electric seats and memory positions. Must try that one!
Just drive it like your going to. You wanna break it in the way your actually gunna drive. It’s not really broken in if you just baby it just don’t floor it for the first 1000km
Just went through comment section, and I'm amazed how many folks don't even go through all the settings and options of their car, even after several months of ownership. Maybe it's me, maybe I'm weird, but I just love scanning all details and setting up my car for my preference.
I have kept a mazda in the garage in a form or another got a cx9 gt to replace her mx5 gt and she never reads the books it come with them… for me i hardly ever use it so not much there, i prefer my denali for weekend rides and my highlander limited for commuting, Mazda looks great just not much compared to our other vehicles so it just a good grocery getter
This is all from my 2019 CX-5 GT. Additionally with the key fob. If the fob battery is dead, place the end of the fob on the start button and it'll light up, letting you start the car. The 4 bars on the radar cruise control display are not car lengths. The distance they represent varies with your speed. When setting a new destination in the GPS that's over 25 miles away, do it manually and start by entering the zip code. It immediately tells NAV what state & area you'll be in and adjusts the expected street names. Whenever you get service done, ask the Mazda shop to also check the infotainment firmware for a new version. The panel light brightness knob has an additional function. If you push it, you change from imperial (miles) to metric (kilometers). If you can afford it, get the trim level with the heads up display. You'll love it. Speed, GPS directions, blind spot monitor and speed limit all right in front of you. If you have the heads up display, get NON-polarized sunglasses. If you use polarized sunglasses the display all but disappears. The vertical position of the heads up display can be adjusted in the settings. The lane keeping function cannot be fully turned off. The lowest level you can go it to get haptic feedback in the steering wheel and the lane flashing. At least that's better than fighting the car just to change lanes. The traffic monitoring on the map is currently $7/mo by itself from Sirius xm. Not worth it, IMO. One question I have. When the radar cruise slows the car, do the brake lights go on?
That’s awesome. I just bought one. I have a question. Is there a way to program whenever I lock the car on the button from the door, all the windows up?
Most all this applies to our 2018 CX-5 as well. I'm going to see if the rear recline is true too. We have the Bose sound system in ours too, but we're not really impressed by it, on or off. We think it actually sounds a bit better without it turned on.
Those with older models without a sport button can double tap on the gas pedal to full and it will go into sport mode by shifting down and staying at higher revs till you let your foot off the gas pedal
Really enjoyed the Bose tip. Much better sound with Bose centerpoint enabled I think. I will push the base up some though since the surround sound reduces the experience of it a bit I think.
One more thing about radar cruise control! Once your CX5 has come to a complete stop, tapping on the gas once will “reactivate” radar cruise control and accelerate from stop, back to where you’re set (or to the traffic flow).
The Bose Centerpoint is set to off for a reason. It’s ok for mixes done in quadraphonic…I play around with it sometimes but it changes the mix that was intended for the listeners. When you turn it on the stereo will be louder which tricks you into thinking it sounds better. If u want the music to sound the way it was intended I would keep it off. If I watch a movie in your car and want surround sound then turn it on.
I would caution folks to listen to the system with a good quality source (Android Auto or apple carplay) and try the different CenterPoint settings. I find it sounds more balanced and less of a fake surround sound with CenterPoint turned off.
Yes either way you have a Bose sound system "Centerpoint" is just a feature like Sony's "base boost" whether it's on or not, if you have Bose speakers then you still have a Bose sound system
@@3tommygunns3 I'm guessing you haven't listened to this system. It is better than any Bose system I've heard in the past. The engineers did it right this time.
@@3tommygunns3 The 2018 CX-5 is an entirely different system from the 2021 Mazda 3 Bose system. My co-worker has the '18 CX-5 and was also impressed with my '21 3's system.
Excellent informative video. I just bought a 2021 CX-5 Signature. Sprung for the top-of-the-line trim level because of the ventilated (cooled) front seats and the 360 degree overhead camera. Two features I had in a previous car and found indispensable. Your tip about the Bose surround sound was particularly useful. Your channel just got a new subscriber.
I bought the CX-5 Grand Touring and paid $1625 for the Premium Package and with that ventilated seats are in the vehicle plus the heated steering wheel, heated rear seats, Auto fold door mirrors, windshield wiper de-icer, and active driving display. All pretty cool stuff!
I just got mine yesterday and opted for the top model because in Australia it’s the only one with the 360° camera.. after driving my BMW for 4yrs I just couldn’t give the camera up! I love this car already! It’s getting cold here now and the heated seats and steering wheel are SO good! I tested them last night on the way home from work at midnight! Can’t wait to try the ventilated for summer too!
@@2004cyrus I did the same thing as you. It was either between that or the GT reserve with the Zoom-Zoom. It was a tough and agonizing choice lol. I pick mine up in a few days.
Another feature you didn't mention, was if you have Sirius Satellite Radio, There's a setting you can set, so that many channels you go to, will go right to the beginning of the song, instead of wherever it is at the moment. I LOVE this feature!
Such a wonderful video. These are small things but I didn't know exist in the car and I had been driving from past 1 year :) Thanks for explaining nicely.
The tip on the tialgate height was a game changer for me. I have been standing in my garage judging when to hit the button so it doesn't hit my door opener. NO MORE!😃
Thanks for the awesome vid! Question, I have the 2022 model. I noticed your cruise monitor/lane departure screen is on the right instead of in the center with your speedometer. Is that something you can adjust? Thanks again!
Thanks. Very helpful. I feel that all car manufactures should supply the salesmen with a full list of the features to mention on the handover day. With all the new information, possible distractions and apprehension around, it shouldn't be left to chance, but formalised. Thanks again.
Many of the sales people don't even follow up with you after the purchase of the vehicle to see if you're satisfied with it they're so quick in a hurry for you to buy it and never check on anything, afterwards
@@LisaLisa-mx3hq You could see it that way. It'd protect the customer, though, from being a given the impression that he'd been rushed, after the sale. And no one could then say, if the points were then signed off, that the important matters were hastily mentioned. It should avoid the impression of complete disinterest, once the car had been sold. The self-help part should come later. Thanks.
I can open windows on my remote in my 2023 CX5. You have to press unlock four times and on the fourth time you hold the button and then they all roll down. Unfortunately there’s no way to roll them up but still a cool feature.
I found out about the key in the key fob when I dropped it and it opened. I was like wow, there's a key in here lol. Great video! Thanks for the tips. I gotta check if my Bose speakers are on properly and play with the window feature lol, I had no idea about that.
When I’m on a two lane road and veer towards the center line, my radio output will shift to the right speaker for a few seconds. The opposite happens if I veer too close to the right side of the road. When that happens, my radio output will shift to the left speaker. It’s a subtle brain hint to correct your steering. I have the 2020 CX-5.
Very helpful. I did not know about the setting for Rain sensing Wipers. I also thought it was for the speed. And I'm gonna check my Bose settings to confirm. Thanks, very much appreciated! Just subbed!
I didn't want my wipers to turn on in the automatic carwash because that could damage the wipers. So I turned off my rain sensitivity in the center screen (Settings>> Vehichle Settings>> Rain Sensing). Now my "Auto" setting works as Intermittent, and now the middle dial with the bars does work for different speeds of intermittent.
Thank you sir lots of good tips! One of our key fobs stopped working with the walk away lock settings. The settings on the dash show correctly for both key fobs... but this only happens with one key fob, any ideas?
This is still my first choice of vehicle. Waiting on the 2022 redesign. If I don't like it I'll buy 2021. It's so classy and premium looking. Kind of concern about the black cladding it will fade over time to that faded gray color. Great video
I hate the key fob. It’s easier to accidentally hit a button with the buttons on the side. Most cars the key just pops out you don’t have to disassemble the key fob to get to it. But you don’t have to take it out that much because the glove box doesn’t lock which is also annoying.
Cool video. Here's a just as important tip you may not know, because Mazda is horrible about not documenting this. If you want to listen to music on a USB flash drive (not a phone) then the drive you buy can be no larger than 8GB and must be formatted in FAT 32.
@@j00bert Schizophrenia is over-diagnosed. In many other cultures, when someone shows signs of what the west indicates is "schizophrenia", they start training them to be the next shaman of the village.
@@j00bert But it's not. Quantum physics is just barely starting to prove with computers what can be done in the body without computers.

@@charliesvids on but they do. I have a manual CX-5 2020 and MRCC is there. It's a lovely feature, keeps me the distance I have set behind another vehicle and it slows down when they do slow down. However, it disengages it once it hits 17 mph. After that you're on your own and you better hit that break pedal. I guess if one's to hit the vehicle in front at 17 mph the damage should be kept to a minimum. Thank for your reply.
I’m having problems with the display screen it’s reset over and over again as if I just started the car up. I was told I may need an upgrade software from Madza. Idk I’m at a lost 😞
It was working. The Bose Centerpoint is just a feature of the system to add more range if you CX has Bose speakers it has a Bose sound system whether or not Centerpoint is in or off
Is this a cx-5 sport, touring, or does it just have all the extra features? Because mine has a good handful of differences including, but not limited to, a different looking fob and door handle lock
The radar cruise control slows down very abruptly when traffic is stopped. Is there a way to adjust this? Adjusting the distance doesn't change this, just keeps a longer distance between cars.
Yes you can use the app to do remote start. It's meant to be used to warm up or cool down the car prior to entering. When you open the car door the engine shuts off, so you have to restart it, presumably with the key fob? It also shuts off after 15 min if you don't open the door. I can't find any info if you do remote start while sitting inside the car and just try to start driving without the fob. I think you can start it with the fob, and then drive without the fob, as long as you don't turn it off. Not sure how that works when the remote start is used.
Loved this video...especially the key fob hint. Very cool!!! I just got my CX-5 yesterday. SO love it. Is the Safety feature on the windows only on certain trim levels?
@@charliesvids ok. So you say this option is in the 2021 Mazda cx 5. But you never answered when I asked you how I find it. Please answer. Plus you must know more than the Mazda dealership because three salesmen and the dealership manager said there is no way to find that info other than waiting for the TIMPS light to come on. Nothing in the manual either.
I have a mazda cx5 2019 with a bose sound system and when I turn on the bose checkpoint and listen to the fm radio, sometimes the driver's speakers and the rear high speakers turn off, they often turn off and then turn on again. This only happens on the fm radio, when I listen via bluetooth everything is fine .Otherwise, when the bose chacpoint is not turned on, it does not happen
For sure everything n this video up to the Bose info applies to the 2017 and 2018 CX-5 models as well, and I am pretty sure what you said regarding the Bose system also applies.
I have another vehicle than has lane correction. I turned it off. It actually takes the wheel andmoves it back between the lines. Sometimes there's a damn good reason I'm going over the line - cuz the truck in front of me is - and if there's no one in the lane next to me I move over a bit. I don't need my car fighting me to steer back.
Thanks very much indeed. I can think of no reason why the Bose Centrpoint should even exist. Does anyone know, please ? Does it only need to be set the once ?; because if not, why has a sound system been installed in a car that Mazda assumes people might not want ?; and if they do, why assume that, conversely, they'd want to turn it off ? Thanks again.

Audiopilot is first and foremost *not* a volume adjusting feature. It actually adjusts specific frequencies to better account for road noise.
I hate the key fob. It’s easier to accidentally hit a button with the buttons on the side. Most cars the key just pops out you don’t have to disassemble the key fob to get to it. But you don’t have to take it out that much because the glove box doesn’t lock which is also annoying.
wow, had no idea about the Bose thing! Its weird they tout the feature as a buying point but its not enabled by default
Yeah I thought the same!
Hi. I want to buy a used Mazda CX5, which year and model (signature, touring 4wd, etc) are best for beginners you would recommend?
The touring trim is the perfect fit for all your basic and even some additional needs!
Thanks for the video. I was unaware of the Bose feature.
Youre welcome!
Cool video. Here's a just as important tip you may not know, because Mazda is horrible about not documenting this. If you want to listen to music on a USB flash drive (not a phone) then the drive you buy can be no larger than 8GB and must be formatted in FAT 32.
Czyta jeszcze niektóre pendrive do 32GB, sformatowane w FAT 32, ale USB musi mieć standard nie wyższy niż 2,0. Pozdrawiam.
Back seat adjustment do great for child seat adjustment
Manufactured in Japan? Transmission and engine ?
Will any joint ventures be with Toyota on this model?
Drives door information sticker has this information.
Please check 2020 RX-5 owners.
Can you do a list for the 1978 Mazda 626? Thanks!
Unfortunately this former car salesman has come down with quite the case of schizophrenia so I doubt it
@@j00bert Schizophrenia is over-diagnosed. In many other cultures, when someone shows signs of what the west indicates is "schizophrenia", they start training them to be the next shaman of the village.
@@ayoungtricknamedjim5498 That's probably a big reason Western civilization is much more advanced lol
@@j00bert But it's not. Quantum physics is just barely starting to prove with computers what can be done in the body without computers. Western civilization is deliberately thousands of years behind the societies where they still have shamans. I know what is possible and western quantum physics hasn't even scratched the surface yet.
@@ayoungtricknamedjim5498 Go on man, please enlighten me. Genuinely curious now.
In what years did apply to
The radar cruise control will stop the car if cruise control is on? That would be on an automatic right? How about on a manual?
Manual won't have Radar Cruise unfortunately
@@charliesvids on but they do. I have a manual CX-5 2020 and MRCC is there. It's a lovely feature, keeps me the distance I have set behind another vehicle and it slows down when they do slow down. However, it disengages it once it hits 17 mph. After that you're on your own and you better hit that break pedal. I guess if one's to hit the vehicle in front at 17 mph the damage should be kept to a minimum. Thank for your reply.
I’m having problems with the display screen it’s reset over and over again as if I just started the car up. I was told I may need an upgrade software from Madza. Idk I’m at a lost 😞
Thank you for that - did not know by Bose system wasn't working!
Youre welcome!
It was working. The Bose Centerpoint is just a feature of the system to add more range if you CX has Bose speakers it has a Bose sound system whether or not Centerpoint is in or off
The centerpoint is not the bose system itself but just a feature of it.
Is this a cx-5 sport, touring, or does it just have all the extra features? Because mine has a good handful of differences including, but not limited to, a different looking fob and door handle lock
The radar cruise control slows down very abruptly when traffic is stopped. Is there a way to adjust this? Adjusting the distance doesn't change this, just keeps a longer distance between cars.
Awesome video, expecting my CX5 in a Month and will def check out these features!
Appreciate that! You're going to love it!
This man does it all 😎🔥
My Bose does not pop up as an option my screen?
Did they took the window safety feature out on 22 model because of chip shortage? my 2022 cx5 ce window does not sense my arm in the way.
So you can open the door if the key FOB is dead, but how do you start the car?
Press the key fob itself against the start button
Yes you can use the app to do remote start. It's meant to be used to warm up or cool down the car prior to entering. When you open the car door the engine shuts off, so you have to restart it, presumably with the key fob? It also shuts off after 15 min if you don't open the door. I can't find any info if you do remote start while sitting inside the car and just try to start driving without the fob. I think you can start it with the fob, and then drive without the fob, as long as you don't turn it off. Not sure how that works when the remote start is used.
Does Mazda CX-5 2017 has parking sensor can you tell me please ? thanks
No sir
Helpful vid, thanks bro!
Absolutely!
Loved this video...especially the key fob hint. Very cool!!! I just got my CX-5 yesterday. SO love it.
Is the Safety feature on the windows only on certain trim levels?
It's standard on every model of mazda
All of them
Centerpoint doesn’t turn Bose audio on/off, it is the automatic surround sound level adjustment.
Thanks! Didn’t know about the Bose on/off thing. I’d never turned mine on🤨
It took me a couple of days to figure it out
On or off. Doesn't matter, If you have Bose speakers then you have a Bose sound system
Is there a way to display the tire pressure on the screen or instrument panel? The manual just says wait for the T I M P S to come on. Ridiculous.
Yeah, that's available in the 2021 modules!
Could you tell me how? Salesman and dealership manager says there is no way.
I just purchased a 2021 cx5
@@charliesvids ok. So you say this option is in the 2021 Mazda cx 5. But you never answered when I asked you how I find it. Please answer.
Plus you must know more than the Mazda dealership because three salesmen and the dealership manager said there is no way to find that info other than waiting for the TIMPS light to come on. Nothing in the manual either.
How are the rear USB ports accessible when the seats are folded down without crimping cords? That is my biggest gripe about the cx5.
I have a mazda cx5 2019 with a bose sound system and when I turn on the bose checkpoint and listen to the fm radio, sometimes the driver's speakers and the rear high speakers turn off, they often turn off and then turn on again. This only happens on the fm radio, when I listen via bluetooth everything is fine .Otherwise, when the bose chacpoint is not turned on, it does not happen
For sure everything n this video up to the Bose info applies to the 2017 and 2018 CX-5 models as well, and I am pretty sure what you said regarding the Bose system also applies.
Our DD King!
I have another vehicle than has lane correction. I turned it off. It actually takes the wheel andmoves it back between the lines. Sometimes there's a damn good reason I'm going over the line - cuz the truck in front of me is - and if there's no one in the lane next to me I move over a bit. I don't need my car fighting me to steer back.
Thanks very much indeed.
I can think of no reason why the Bose Centrpoint should even exist. Does anyone know, please ?
Does it only need to be set the once ?; because if not, why has a sound system been installed in a car that Mazda assumes people might not want ?; and if they do, why assume that, conversely, they'd want to turn it off ?
Thanks again.
