    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    No dealer discount? 8% should be easy, 10% if you work it hard.

    How difficult is it to update maps?

    Date of purchase starts the clock. VIN is stored on SD card to lock it to that vehicle only after driving 60(?) miles with card inserted. IIRC!

    Do 17” rims from a 16.5 fit a 2020 GTR/Signature?

    I’m thinking of trading in my 16.5 GT on a 2020 GTR or Sig. I was wondering if anyone knew if my 17” Blizzaks would fit on a 2020 Turbo model? The rims are BKM model MBM’s fwiw. Discount Tire, where I bought the snows/rims, checked for me. They said it should fit from everything they could...

    Daytime running lights dim/flickering

    You can look for the part # yourself, on the back of the light(?). Instructions and the full part # are above IIRC. A part number ending in “J” or above(?) is “healthy.”

    Warning signs after battery replacement

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    I do, even if I loves me new cars. She’s the reason I have a comfortable retirement- I would’ve blown it all on wine, women, song and new cars if she wasn’t so tight-fisted. My best hope is passing my 16.5 down to my 14 YO grandson, which was the original plan before I got wind of $3k...

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    Never got to the point of getting the trade appraised. I usually go to CarMax to value the trade and keep em honest before talking to the dealer, but they’re shut down. KBB pegged it at $16.5, without considering the low mileage,dedicated snows, new Conti All-seasons, and 5.5 years/54k miles of...

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    Was thinking about upgrading my 16.5 GT to a turbo, so I sent out bid requests last week to 6 Metro Denver dealers that had Red or Blue Signatures in stock. Was very pleased with the low bid: Sticker $38,695.00 Accessories $650.00 MSRP $39,345.00 Discount/rebates $6,105.50 15.52%...

    What's everybody paying for gas?

    $1.88 for regular (85 octane in Denver) at King Sooners (Kroger) here. Also go a $1 off/gal for spending $100 in Feb for groceries. What, no glasses? Those of you who paid $0.28/gal in the 70’s will remember the freebies for a fill up. My ‘68 GTO convertible with a 450 dual quad engine and...

    2019 GT speed display option

    Waze with CarPlay will display digital speed on the infotainment screen. I expect it does the same with Android Auto.

    So long, it’s been great

    Can’t agree with you more, Raj55. My last car was a VW EOS. Loved it. Very fun to drive and ride in. When new, I purchased an extended warranty, to 10 years. I collected over 3x the cost in covered repairs in 9.5 years. No way I was going to keep it past 10. On the bright side, the dealer...

    Found this wire hanging under the lower dash panel? Should I be worried?

    Yikes! I’d wrap those wire ends individually in electrical tape and stow it out of the way before even starting, much less driving the car.

    My CX5 ruined my CRV joy

    #FirstWorldProblems Toss in a little oil dilution and you can give yourself a good kick for buying an appliance. Hope your wife likes it 🥴

    General consensus on the white color for the CX5

    Perhaps they were commenting on the car rather than the color? i‘ve driven a White Yukon for many previous years and never had one such comment.

    Ditto here at 43k! I haul young grandsons lots and it has stood up well to their abuse.

    2019 CX-5 Reserve: Buzzing in Dash

    Dude, crank up the tunes! Life is too short to obsess over every buzz, whirr, click, rattle and hum that a modern vehicle exhibits. If it werent for the NVH improvements in Gen 2, you might not even be able to hear them.
