New Owner: Not sure if mine is a Touring or GT . . .

[3rowClub]

The previous owner thought it was a Touring.
Is there anyway to know for sure on a 2009 Mazda5?
It has leather-like seats, not cloth, but I don't think its real leather.
moonroof.
alloy wheels (have to look at the sizes tonight)
bluetooth. (so far I'm disappointed in this feature. I haven't figured out how to tell it to load all the numbers from my iPhone)
It has an overhead DVD player
heated seats
rain-sensing wipers.
Does NOT have Nav or back-up camera.

I thought this would be a good cross between a station wagon and minivan for my 3 kids. (ages 5,8 and 10)
We have been using a VW JSW TDI up to now, but VW is buying it back Dec. 30th.

After reading a bit here, I will take it to my mechanic next week for:
ATF drain and fill. (not a flush), as the owner said he never changed the ATF and car has 83K miles on it.
Check brake pads and disks as brakes shudder when they first engage.
Check sway bar bushings, suspension in general to track down the clunking sound I am hearing when it goes over bumps.

This car was garage-kept, so I'm hoping there is very little rust. I don't see any on the sliding door connectors, as I saw on other Mazda5's I looked at, but I haven't gotten a good look underneath yet.

Anyway, thanks for hosting a really helpful forum.

On the 2009, the TOURING was CLOTH, and the GRAND TOURING has leather.

Heated seats and rain sensing wipers were also GRAND TOURING.

Sounds like you have the GRAND TOURING

Pretty certain you have a GT since you have heated seats. Nav was an option even for the GT. Another way to tell if you have a GT is if you have factory HIDs (there should be a dial to the left of the steering wheel that lets you adjust the height of the beams from 0 to 3).
