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.

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.

Great tips! Bought a Carbon Edition Turbo AWD a few days ago and my smile gets bigger everytime I take it out

Not only do you hold GME, but you also work at a Mazda dealership. A man of culture.

the Bose tip was very very helpful. Thank you!

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.

Very helpful. Just bought a 2021 Carbon Edition CX 5 and you saved me a lot of time sifting through the manual.

I love my CX5 SOO much!! I've been trying to figure out the auto sensing wipers, thank you! 😍

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?

just got a 2020 CX5 GT......love it and Thanks for the tips. I'll be sure to be putting it to use.

Thanks! I like the rear hatch adjustment and the Bose "on" option. '20 GTR here.

The Bose tip makes all the difference , thank you !

I just bought a used 2019 gt reserve. This was definitely helpful. Thank you!

I need to know these 10 things about my non existent car

THANK YOU!! My lord, I'm still learning how to drive this "space ship" 2 years after purchase 🤣🤣

When this thing pops i am DEFINITELY getting a cx5. This. Is. The. Way. Jaaaaaaaaackd

Not just clickbait! I really didn’t know 7/10 of those! Thank you!

Thank you. You mentioned 2019 or newer but it looks like most applies to my 2017 cx 5 as well!

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.

Just got my 2021 CX5 touring. I love it

Got my carbon edition last week love it

Thank you for this video. Hoping to buy a 2022 or 2023 CX-5 and all of this is good to know!!

"and now you get the sound system you paid for" best tip on here! Thanks haha

the man , the voice, the legend

Thanks the wiper explanation is really helpful.

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!😃

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.

Thank you!! I’ve had my cx5 for over two years and did not know 1-6

THANK YOU CARDINALE MADZA. LOVE MY 2020 CX5. GREAT FEATURES. GREAT VIDEO.

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.

So one day my right rear door just won't open from the inside. Now you really solved my problem! Thanks a lot!

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

This is also true for the 2023 Mazda CX-5 Carbon edition. Great video, thanks.

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.

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.

Excellent info, in particular the Bose sound tip- a huge difference in sound quality!

Thanks for the video. I was unaware of the Bose feature.

Awesome video, expecting my CX5 in a Month and will def check out these features!

Thanks! there were a few i did not know!

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.

OMG...this was so helpful. Thank you

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.

Thank you for the tips I saved this to my playlist so i don't forget haha!

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!

Great tips!!!!! I didn’t know about 2/3 of them haha

Great, the information shared is very helpful

Thank you!!M I wondered why the sound system did not meet my expectations

My 2018 does these things too, except maybe not stop itself. I won't try that but supposedly it does.

great tips! i didnt even know about auto whippers

One of the best vehicles available today. Ticks all the safety boxes.

Been trying to figure out this rain sensor wipers for a while. Will give this a try.

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).

from car salesmen to paid citadel provocateur. incredible charlie, well done.

Thanks you solved my trunk issue

The steering wheel adjustment is cool

This man does it all 😎🔥

Thank you for that - did not know by Bose system wasn't working!

Audiopilot is first and foremost *not* a volume adjusting feature. It actually adjusts specific frequencies to better account for road noise.

Helpful vid, thanks bro!

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.

Thanks so much for the info!

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!

Perfect for those long road trips where you have people in the back seat and absolutely no luggage. Of course ;)

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

Nice tips,. Good job!!

Can wait for your future lambo reviews

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.

thanks.very helpfull.

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?

Thanks for the info!

Could you do a video on all the interior safety features and any exterior thank you

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!

Great tips

Thanks! Didn’t know about the Bose on/off thing. I’d never turned mine on🤨

hey i got my first mazda from that place! lol

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?

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 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.

Centerpoint doesn’t turn Bose audio on/off, it is the automatic surround sound level adjustment.

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?

Awesome!

Our DD King!

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

YAY! I was wondering what was wrong with my music!

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.

I just find it so hilarious this keeps getting recommended to me. Trying to figure out how this car is tied to Blackrock taking over the world.

Add one more...the rear brake pads wears out 56% faster than the front brake pads that has a screamer installed that goes off when it needs to be replaced. The rear brake pads will have grinding metal noise coming from the rear it will become noticeable while backing up. If you ignore it then soon you will hear it as you brake before into a complete stop.

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?

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 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.

I was going to give a 👎🏿 but as I kept watching it was very helpful 👍🏾

Back seat adjustment do great for child seat adjustment

Good thing i checked for the tow hook which by the way is missing. You must order one from dealer. Extremely expensive should you be stuck without any towing company near.

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.

Nice!

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

"All 1920 and 2021 models..." 1920??? Damn dude, my Granny and a good old fashioned history books only ever told me about the Ford model T. 😉 Kidding, ofcourse. I couldn't help myself. Very informative. I have a 2013 Mazda 3 and I've recently driven the Cx5 and the CX30. I much prefer the CX5 to the 30. I'm an average sized girl, 5ft7in, 130 lbs and I've never felt more like a canned sardine as I did driving the Cx30. My 89 Ford Festiva felt more spacious than the Cx30. Id like to think that maybe it was just that trim but both of them were loaner cars while my car was getting serviced so I know they gave me the best trim's available. I would rather spend the money on the CX5 than the CX30 for that reason alone. I can't wait to test drive the new electric Mazda next year!

Just got mine. I would estimate there are about 600 pages of things I don’t know. My brain is hurting with all this stuff I don’t need.

Thanks
