Winter tire tips from Canada I live in Atlantic Canada, one of the most unforgiving winter climates on the planet. Not because it gets particularly cold here, but the weather goes from snow to ice, to slush, and back to ice again -- and that's just in one day! Oh, and did I mention the salt --...

GT Reserve Pricing in Canada Not sure how helpful it is, but I can share my experience from Canada (vehicle prices here re typically higher than in the USA). I had a 2016 GT Turbo in very good condition 3 years into a 4 year lease. It had high mileage -- 94,000 kms (58,000 miles). Typically...

Extremely helpful -- thanks so much!

Okay thanks. So is this a different system than the ones on my 2016 GT, and my wife's CX-3? Both have a reset button...

Is there a small reset button for the Tire Pressure Monitor System on the 2019 GTR? My 2016 GT had a reset button at the bottom left under the steering wheel which you activated once you've topped up your tire pressures. How do you do this on the 2019 -- I can't find the button anywhere on the...

Absolutely true -- one person's muddy might be crystal clear for another. I'm a big fan of this BOSE system which has been tuned to the vehicle. Pretty sure all the extra sound-deadening in the 2019 GTR is also helping the to enhance overall sound signature.

That makes sense -- thanks!

That makes sense * thanks!

I'm surprised by the "very muddy" comment on the BOSE system. As a live sound and amateur recording technician since the 80s, I'm pretty picky about sound, and I would have to call the BOSE sound in the 2019 GTR anything but muddy. I guess it's all subjective, but when adjusted to my taste...

I've only had this vehicle for a few weeks, (previously had a 2016 GT with a BOSE system) but I've noticed that during playback of music from various sources, the sound drops out on the drivers side (much like it does when the nav voice directions kick in) but for no reason -- nav is not running...

This is my third CX-5 (my wife also has a 2017 CX-3). I've had a 2014 GX AWD, a 2016 GT AWD, and just picked up a 2019 GT Reserve Turbo AWD in June. After driving about 2,000 km, I can tell you it is a major upgrade from my 2016 GT (I can't speak to the difference between 2017 vs 2019 models...

I had a Meteor Grey 2014 GS, and was very happy with it. Then I saw the 2016.5 GT in Dark Crystal Blue, and loved it! The gray is safe, ubiquitous (I see a lot of them around here), and good for resale. The bright blue from 2014 was a bit too toy-like for me. I'm a graphic designer, so colour is...
