#10 of 107 Re: DVD player for M5........ [cmyers300m] by maltb Jun 26, 2006 (8:08 am)
Replying to: cmyers300m (Jun 23, 2006 10:45 pm) The DVD player has yet to be released by Mazda. Best guesses say that it will be available sometime in July. Stay tuned... If you are curious as to what the functionality or look is, check out the DVD system in the MPV as they are identical: only the mounting has changed.

Replying to: maltb (Jun 26, 2006 8:08 am) Thanks for the info! I'm surprised they've waited this long. Well, I'm keeping this car on my list.

Replying to: cmyers300m (Jun 26, 2006 7:20 pm) I don't think they intended for it to be this late, but I hear there were some issues with the supplier.

Replying to: cmyers300m (Jun 26, 2006 7:20 pm) I just bought my Mazda5 yesterday. The dealer is installing a DVD with 10.5" screen. It is an aftermarket system but I cant complain it is guarenteed by the dealership and was less expensive than the Mazda one.

Replying to: archibald (Jun 27, 2006 9:01 am) What good is aftermarket DVD players being guaranteed "by the dealership" and then only by that one particular dealership? If you are not getting genuine Mazda parts guaranteed by the Mazda factory warranty, then you might as well have gone to Best Buy and gotten a better price or better equipment for the same price. All the major name brands have their own manufacturers warranties and extended warranties too.

Replying to: jaxs1 (Jun 27, 2006 9:16 pm) I have to kinda agree with you. I'm BIG on getting factory parts as well. In years past I've had issues with aftermarket stuff installed by a dealer. I prefer to have things factory installed and not installed by the dealer. The big reason is there is no real quality control when it comes to a dealer putting in something. If I can't get a DVD player factory installed by Mazda then I'll look elsewhere. Replies to this message: archibald (Jun 28, 2006 3:22 am) jaxs1 (Jun 28, 2006 4:42 am)

Replying to: cmyers300m (Jun 28, 2006 2:31 am) on the 2006 M5 the DVD is always going to be a dealer installed option. I will know more once I get my vehicle later today but at least I know if there is any problems with accessories bought through the dealership I won't be voiding anything. Plus spending less money for a better unit isn't a bad thing. I am almost certain that the Mazda DVD system is not made by Mazda but a different company as well.

Replying to: archibald (Jun 28, 2006 3:22 am) When you get official Mazda-approved accessories (even if they are not actually manufactured by Mazda) installed by the dealer, they are guaranteed by Mazda and covered by the Mazda factory warranty at any Mazda dealership in the country. However, if the dealership farms out the parts on their own, then only that dealership would fix problems under their own service guarantee. If you purchase and get name brand stereo equipment installed at a major chain, you have that chain's gaurantee plus any extended warranty purchased that you would be able to use at any of their locations.
#18 of 107 MP3 player??? by librarygrl Nov 17, 2005 (1:11 pm)
I think we have decided on the Touring model (after previously deciding on a Honda Odyssey) but my question is about the MP3 player. Is that standard on the touring or an option? When I test drove on the other day I knew more about the car than the salesperson - very frusterating. The brochure does not elaborate on the MP3 feature either. So any owners out there who have/use the MP3? Replies to this message: smaria (Nov 17, 2005 2:28 pm)

Replying to: librarygrl (Nov 17, 2005 1:11 pm) The MP3 player isn't standard on any of the US Mazda5 models. It's optional, and it's basically just a CD player that has the capability to play CDs that have MP3s on them.
