CX-5 Grand Touring

  • Automatic transmission

This basically started the year after I got it - but whenever it gets below 30F, the infotainment system (gps/bluetooth,etc.) restarts constantly until the car warms up. The only thing that works during this time is the radio. It is overall extremely slow to respond to button presses, even when the weather is normal. The dealership wanted me to leave it overnight to observe the issue, but they were way too expensive for some other things so I decided to pass on that.

I'm guessing it's some sort of electrical switch that is aggravated by the cold? Maybe a wire or contact is contracting too much and needs more solder? If I ever get around to looking at it and have any luck I will update this.

Update from Jan 23, 2024: Found a Reddit post saying that the SD card was manufactured poorly, by removing it the issue is fixed. I plan on buying a new SD card and putting mazda tweaks on it )
