I think it should be a thread for all CX-5 owners & lovers.. G1, FL & G2.. Easier this way, plus we can still learn a thing or 2 from the owners of the previous Gen.. Especially on where to service or buy accessories outside SC.. My 2 sen..
*
Yes, should not differeciate G1 or FL or G2....all of us are CX5 owner...similar to CX5 FB clubs which include all gen and learn from each others....

They will when clearing stock, Mazda GH 25k off current Mazda 2xk discount also, this is one of the reason why Mazda RV is so bad.

Mind elaborating further? Cuz usually it's that they don't offer, so as to protect RV.. sweat.gif

Totally catch no ball, not understand what it mean!!!!
Normally Mazda only provide more rebate during roadshow like extra 500-1k or free roadtax etc then is up to the SA wanna give u extra from his commission or not... my case I get extra 1K for 2.5L 2 yrs ago!!
As for those 10k or 15k discount only applicable to old model when new model launch!!
Wondering what it mean the 25k!! sorry my interpretation skill a bit low!!!

Mazda give huge discount to clear old stock, RV also drop cause calculate base on the last selling price by Mazda, this info was shared by used car dealer.

Others brand of car also did that as well rite..
Old model will get 10k rebate....

I believe these large rebates is when Mazda want to clear stocks for new generation release. Like how gen 2 replaces gen 1, to clear gen 1 stocks they are offering big cash rebates. In this case I don't think gen 3 coming next year that soon so there should be not big cash rebates like this. There will be of course the year end sales to clear out 2018 stocks but it should be 5-6k range I believe.
*
Yes, true only for old model when new model launch.
Normally Mazda not even give 5-6k during year end....max u get 1-2k consider good d!!

Year end probably be more than that. Plus own commission from the SA. I remember last year I asked it was about 4k sweat.gif

Yup, some from SA...4k quite good price? KL dealer or Bermas? I was told KL dealer can offer more rebate...

Ipoh dealer but that was last last year for gen 1. I went and ask on December during the year end sales but was disappointed to hear only 4k as other brands like Honda are doing like 10k++ rebates
*
If Bermas even worst... haha only dealer give 4k hahha

Honestly, i got a few friends installed some accesories by him & all really kinda good quality but i dont believe it. This few days trying to see all his products video then i found really not bad. Well his mouth is quite bitchy & his price are abit high but i really cant find people complaining about his product after he installed. For me, seller attitude is not issue but the workmanship & product final is important.

PS : im not JL friend. He dont pay me. xD
*
To be honest, I am one of his customer too and is true all his items are quite good quality and price wise just slightly high only.....agree the way he talk kind of "Chuen" and quite arrogant....all installation workmanship was good too...

So far below are all my items from him...
- Full Hertz Speaker Set + Door Soundproof (only on metal part for better sound)
- Side Steps
- Inner Floor LED
- Boot Protector
- Mudflap
- Rear Seat Bracket

Thx

Just received confirmation, will be receiving 2.0 GLS DCB next week.
Anyone took the GTechniQ coating package? Other options? Opinions please?

I am using Gtechniq CS Black 7 years paint protect... the platinum 5 years paint protect is more commonly select by most users.

My car is about ~2.3 years and so far still look great... no regret getting UK Gtechniq....
Total 4 of my family members cars (Altis - Sold, CX5, Myvi & Accord) are using Gtechniq Coating...mostly choose Platinum version.

Just got mine.

Question: Should I install Android Interface now or wait of official Android Auto?
*
Pro and Cons....

Android Interface is independent gadget w/ full Android features including Google Play Store, Youtube, Video Players, Video Input for Dashcam or front cam, Video Output for Headset Monitor, USB files playback, others apps etc.
Android Auto must collect to phone and only use for Navi like Waze/Google Gap, Google Play Music, Answer Calls etc.

Both also using Phone Data Plan either Hot Spot for Android Interface or AA will be direct phone data connection.
Others option for Android Interface will be using the USB Data Sim Modem Dongle but not sure how stable is the connection.

If you op for more playback then Android Interface which act like adding TV Box into your car HU but if you only need navigation then AA might be good enough even though must connect phone using USB Cable (AA WIFI still not stable yet).

Thx

Not forgetting that Android Interface will set you back RM2k or around that
While Android Auto (unofficial) will set you back around Rm400 or so
*
Yup, cheapest is about 1.6k for Android Interface while official AA could be few hundred.... is like just pay for 1 high end android tv box in your car smile.gif

i will go for android auto anyday. it is specifically designed to assist the driver without much interference. The android interface on the other hand is designed for tab/phone. so the interface itself doesn't really suit the driving assistance. and i don't think we really need to watch movies or youtube upon driving. huhu
*
Agree it could be distraction to driver, it suppose for back seat passenger or front passenger only....unless you add head rest monitor for back passenger.
Technically I also use more on Google Map and that is why until now still reluctant to purchase it and only useful for my kids at the back if really add on this android interface as well as for dashcam or front cam viewing.

or free if you DIY it yourself: https://mazdatweaks.com/
the RM400 is a service charge for someone to do it for you
*
If official AA from Mazda then there will be HW add on to allow 2A charging for front USB Port so should not be just SW add on.
Unofficial 1 then only SW and for those xxx.502 onward which had lock USB port, if need install Mazda Tweak then require certain steps to bypass it by opening up your HU for certain jumper installation if not wrong unless wait for official version from Mazda.

Not easy to DIY for the new HU firmware now. need to open the dashboard and unmount the head unit to get access to the USB port. need to connect to PC and unlock the USB then only can install the mazda AIO and the android auto. for me, i rather pay RM400 to get someone experienced to do it rather than DIY and end up damaging anything. huhu
*
You are totally right smile.gif
Not easy for xxx.502+ HU FW....HW modify steps require unless willing to wait until official AA from Mazda....

My HU require to upgrade to latest version due to earlier FW causing freq restart and Bluetooth stability and now cant use my initial Mazda Tweak AA d... :~~(

Looks good ... not sure if mine is Platinum or not. But he did say 5 years.
Other brands comes with free maintenance. GtechniQ maintenance is how much and how frequent?

Thanks in advance dude!
*
I believe 5 years is Platinum and I never ask to routinely go back for maintenance... only back if had problems... so far I only return once due to long duration of time kena dirty water which induce minor water mark.
