Lol. What could’ve been. Charlie’s Vids. The place to go for car reviews. I would’ve subscribed to that too.
I know it's been a year probably since you posted this but what the heck this is really interesting thank you. 👍😀
Is this on all of the Mazda CX-5?
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!
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.
absolutely !
Great tips! Bought a Carbon Edition Turbo AWD a few days ago and my smile gets bigger everytime I take it out
SWEET! I'm jealous
I got a turbo as well, but I'm babying it in the 1000k break-in period.
Right? No turbo on carbon in Canada tho.
@@chickenmuffin that stinks! The carbon turbo is fun
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
I love my CX5 SOO much!! I've been trying to figure out the auto sensing wipers, thank you! 😍
Youre very welcome!
Riiiiiiight, wait until you payoff the 5, you’ll be buying a 9! Just got the Carbon and kept the 5, We love Her, but the Carbon, OMG 🤯🤯🤯🤯
Cx5 my best friend 💓
@@Newly.Balanced just replaced my carbon with a 21 GTR with the premium package and it’s like driving an Audi
Contemplating a 2023 CX5 Preferred trim. This information really added some good points to be aware of.
Very helpful. Just bought a 2021 Carbon Edition CX 5 and you saved me a lot of time sifting through the manual.
Glad to have helped!
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?
To your question, yes, the brake lights go on when the radar cruise control slows your car down.
Thanks very much.
Thank you!
the Bose tip was very very helpful. Thank you!
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.
Thanks! I like the rear hatch adjustment and the Bose "on" option. '20 GTR here.
Youre welcome! Thank you!
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
just got a 2020 CX5 GT......love it and Thanks for the tips. I'll be sure to be putting it to use.
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!
@@meldoggett2942 that’s awesome I wish I could get 360° camera
@@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.
@@shineinouzen7412 you will enjoy it. I only have a couple small complaints. I’ve had lots of vehicles, and none are perfect in my experience.
I just bought a used 2019 gt reserve. This was definitely helpful. Thank you!
The Bose tip makes all the difference , thank you !
Glad it helped!
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.
I found mine when I got my car yesterday and I’m like.. ‘hey what does this little notch on the side do’ haha!
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.
Glad it helped !
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.
So do I 😂
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
Thank you for this video. Hoping to buy a 2022 or 2023 CX-5 and all of this is good to know!!
Thank you. You mentioned 2019 or newer but it looks like most applies to my 2017 cx 5 as well!
thank you so much for your great tips.I have been driving my cx5 for almost two years. but i did't some feature you just mentioned in your video.
Youre very welcome!
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.
Absolutely:)
the man , the voice, the legend
Got my carbon edition last week love it
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 the wiper explanation is really helpful.
Youre welcome!
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!😃
THANK YOU!! My lord, I'm still learning how to drive this "space ship" 2 years after purchase 🤣🤣
Just got my 2021 CX5 touring. I love it
THANK YOU CARDINALE MADZA. LOVE MY 2020 CX5. GREAT FEATURES. GREAT VIDEO.
"and now you get the sound system you paid for" best tip on here! Thanks haha
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
That's what the Owners Manual is for!
@@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.
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?
Not just clickbait! I really didn’t know 7/10 of those! Thank you!
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.
Audiopilot is first and foremost *not* a volume adjusting feature. It actually adjusts specific frequencies to better account for road noise.
Not only do you hold GME, but you also work at a Mazda dealership. A man of culture.
Awesome video, expecting my CX5 in a Month and will def check out these features!
Appreciate that! You're going to love it!
Thanks for the video. I was unaware of the Bose feature.
Youre welcome!
So one day my right rear door just won't open from the inside. Now you really solved my problem! Thanks a lot!
OMG...this was so helpful. Thank you
Excellent info, in particular the Bose sound tip- a huge difference in sound quality!
Absolutely!
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
Infotainment sucks…. Trust me. 2019 owner.
Get a ceramic coating on the trim
I need to know these 10 things about my non existent car
Why are you watching this video?
Get a job and pay for one
😭.
True haha
😂
This is also true for the 2023 Mazda CX-5 Carbon edition. Great video, thanks.
Thank you for the tips I saved this to my playlist so i don't forget haha!
of course!
Thanks! there were a few i did not know!
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!! I’ve had my cx5 for over two years and did not know 1-6
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).
You can also press the RES button on the steering wheel instead of the gas pedal too!
My 2018 does these things too, except maybe not stop itself. I won't try that but supposedly it does.
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?
First and foremost; the battery in the key fob. 2nd - make sure the doors are locked and the other key fob is not within 6ft of the car - good luck
Thank you!!M I wondered why the sound system did not meet my expectations
Once you turned on the Bose Centerpoint did it improve a lot?
Helpful vid, thanks bro!
Absolutely!
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
This man does it all 😎🔥
Thanks so much for the info!
Youre very welcome!
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.
Great tips!!!!! I didn’t know about 2/3 of them haha
Great, the information shared is very helpful
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.
How are the rear USB ports accessible when the seats are folded down without crimping cords? That is my biggest gripe about the cx5.
Very informative. Thanks. Does anyone know how to turn on the radar cruise control to set the 4-length distance from car in front of you?
Been trying to figure out this rain sensor wipers for a while. Will give this a try.
When this thing pops i am DEFINITELY getting a cx5. This. Is. The. Way. Jaaaaaaaaackd
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!
...that is a good feature; albeit that is a Sirius/XM feature in bedded.
Could you do a video on all the interior safety features and any exterior thank you
Like airbags and seat belts and the LATCH for car seats?
great tips! i didnt even know about auto whippers
Those are wonderful to have D!
Nice tips,. Good job!!
Perfect for those long road trips where you have people in the back seat and absolutely no luggage. Of course ;)
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.
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
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.
Interesting
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.
@@TomZ23 yes I have indeed, I own a 2018 CX 5 GT and have played around with it on and off and with different audio sources
@@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.
Thanks for the info!
Absolutely
thanks.very helpfull.
I should've bought a CX-5 last year but I bought a 2019 CX-3 instead. Do you have any secrets about my car?
is there a setting where so your not fighting with wheel if you go over lane? Thanks.
This is for a CX-30, but the settings are the same: kzhead.info/sun/g9F7f6yua6SXaZs/bejne.html
One of the best vehicles available today. Ticks all the safety boxes.
Absolutely
I have a 2019 CX5 with the BOSE system (including the subwoofer) and it doesn't have the slide controls you show. Mine just has boxes that you check.
from car salesmen to paid citadel provocateur. incredible charlie, well done.
🤡 keep following the blind, I'll keep outclassing them. Thanks for the comment.
@@charliesvids cope
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.
Great tips
Thank you
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!
Centerpoint doesn’t turn Bose audio on/off, it is the automatic surround sound level adjustment.
Thanks you solved my trunk issue
What is the total watts output for the radio sound system?
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 😞
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
The steering wheel adjustment is cool
Can wait for your future lambo reviews
LOL
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.
What if we lose the fob. Can we drive with the app only? Thx
Can you open the windows with your remote?? I could with my old Mazda6, but not the new CX5?? I missed this feature on hot summer days...
Unfortunately nope
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 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
Awesome!
Thanks!
Question is it normal on a Mazda CX-5 does the shift gear not lock on drive?? It could move up to neutral and lock there.
It locks on drive as long as your foot isn't on the brake pedal.
@@charliesvids my CX-5 goes to drive and even if I’m driving I could switch it to neutral… I took it to the Mazda dealership and apparently is normal. I still can’t believe it’s NORMAL…
I just bought a 2019 cx-5 grand touring and for the life of me I can’t figure out how to make the parking sensors beep. Please help. To the left of the steering wheel, there’s the lift gate button, a TCS OFF button, and another one but it doesn’t say parking.
In what years did apply to
We have a 2016 CX-5 and still enjoy it. I do however like our hidden spare key better as it has a chunk of plastic to hold onto while using it & it also just slides out of the fob with a bit of effort
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.
