I did mean when navigating, but honestly I didn't ever see this under apps. When the car started this morning I didn't have that app, but later while driving it appeared. I guess it's better than nothing, but I wish you could zoom in on sections. It's a total view of the DFW and surrounding areas and it's pretty hard to see.


Thanks for the tip though!

It's only good around here for major expressways too. Basically shows huge areas to avoid and that's it, since it's zoomed out so far. Better than nothing I guess.

Just bought CX5 GS (so I live in Canada and bought canadian version cx5 gs, if there is a such one) but no NAV purchased, so was wondering where did you get it cheaper and did it work? Some people say it is grey-ish version, no colors? Does the one you buy at the dealer has colored maps? Anyone from Canada here that bought nav sd card for CX5 GS?
Thank you all for your assistance

I'll try to get a snapshot of mine tomorrow, but mine is in color. Bodies of water are blue and the golf course in my neighborhood is green. On interstates as I approach exits there are green signs similar to the actual green signs indicating streets, exits and highway numbers.The little traffic light symbol is in color as well as the speed limit symbol which turns to red if I speed.

When the headlights are on the display changes to a mostly dark greyish color. Are you looking at yours with your headlights on?

What is the deal with the SD NAV card? The salesman explained it to me but if the CX-5 comes with the Tech Package, it already has the NAV in it! Right? Is there a difference between the factory NAV system and the SD card or are they all SD add-on's? Thanks!

Default Petition to re-enable Live Traffic in 2016 models

I've put up an online petition in an attempt to get Mazda to reinstall the Live Traffic feature in the new navigation system. The more signatures we can get the better the chances they might DO something about it instead of saying they are "working on it".


Please sign the petition at Petition Live Traffic in 2016 Mazdas.


Thanks!

I just purchased my 2016 CX5 about 1.5 months ago. I am downloading the latest Navi Software as we speak. Before this update I have not had real time traffic. It is my understanding that we do not get it, but I will find out after the update to my SD Navi card.
