I would suggest the OP was a troll since they have no been back since to either thank people for helpful answers or to tell us why they could not be bothered to read the manual before asking.

Or as skidpan suggested. Because the owners manual shows quite clearly that, in spite of what the OP said, there IS a reset button on the dash, to the left of the steering column. It's marked with the runflat symbol (with an exclamation mark inside it) and the word 'SET'.

But knowing that would have required (a) reading the handbook, and/or (b) actually looking at the dashboard. Either of which seemed to be beyond the OP.

Oh. Yes, I'm harsh. When I think it's called for. As in when I'm faced with a lazy person who could find out the information with absolutely minimal effort, but they expect everyone else to do it all for them, and hand the world to them on a silver platter.

However, I'll happily answer genuine queries (if I can, I don't pretend I've got all the answers, and on some topics I won't post at all), vis a vis the 'future classic jag' thread in motoring discussion, and the RR Vogue noisy turbo thread in technical from a few days ago.

Its in 4.141 of the manual.

What a jolly lot you are.

The manual on my Mazda is over 700 pages thick, yes i do use an electronic manual and i do search it, but it covers cars sold in the USA europe etc, so not everything is applicable.

My CX-5 does indeed have a button on the dash to set it, but i had no idea it said set on it, and i've had the car over two years.

If you could answer the OP why didn't you instead of being up yourselfs.

Does the manual for your car have an index, by any chance ? If you use that, then you don't need to wade through 700-odd pages of book to find how functions work.

I actually found the details of how to do it by looking in the index, under 'T'. There is a page dedicated to the Tyre Pressure Monitoring System.

And still it was too much trouble for you to post the answer???

See my link above, that took me 5 mins to help a member.

And if you go to my post of the 21st October, you'll see that I'd posted up the (correct) page details too.

I think the point being made by many is that many of us are starting to get fed up of being used to find out things for people who can't be bothered to make some kind of effort themselves - if it took you 5 mins to find and post the answer, why couldn't they do the same?

Its not as though the OP was an 80 y.o. with little knowledge of the internet and who'd mislaid their manual. All it does is mean that people like the OP who are lazy continue to ask others to do the work for them. Says quite a lot about today's society where many people have no concept of self-reliance. All it would've taken was a bit of effort from the OP beforehand (even if they couldn't find the online manual and had lost the paper copy) - at least then they would've tried before coming to us.

Being honest, its a waste of time judging everyone else on your own standards, we are not all born equal.

My wife would be completly losted if faced with the same problem as the OP, so she would immediatly ring me.

Being honest, how many of you deriding the OP would tell the wife not to be lasy and sort it out herself.

She rang last year, the car wouldn't start, she explained what was happening and i had to hang up and give it some thought, i actually looked at the e manual which gave me some ideas, keyfob moved closer the the dash sensor out of the handbag and car started.

You only have to drive a few miles to realise the large number of poor or uninteligent drivers there are on the road. And no i'm not saying the OP is either. I'm not a judge.

After 40 years of marriage together i can honestly say that an occasional call for help isnt a big deal.
