    Signature mpg

    I'm only on my 2nd tank ever and I question the quality of the gasoline the dealer put in the first tank, but I did do the math on the first fill up, though not "precisely", and it was in the ball park for with about 240 miles on 13 gallons, so 18.x was close enough. I'll do the math on the...

    Signature mpg

    Glad it is not just me, but I'll see if this improves. First tank was 18.8 MPG, second tank I was up to 22.9 from some highway driving, but it is back down to 20.2 after idling with the AC through a couple drive-throughs. Sigh. Still less than 500 miles on the odometer, and it is a little too...

I had a Honda Odyssey do that horrible cold weather clunking before, kept waiting for the transmission to just fall out. But yes, quick acceleration (for which this Turbo does amazingly)...

    2018 CX-5 Low Speed Transmission Hesitation/Jerk/Lurch

    I have a 2019 Signature, and I was starting to wonder if it was just me. I came from a CVT most recently so I thought that was maybe just getting use to a normal transmission again, but going into and out of 1st is NOT pleasant a good bit of the time. It throws me forward then back into the...

    Android Auto / Apple Carplay tips and tricks

    I've been enjoying the new vehicle and Android Auto, but I noticed that Text Messages and even Calls often don't come through while connected to AA. If anyone else experiences this, it is a COMMON problem. There is a massive thread on Android support that is talking about it, but no resolution...
