    2007~2015 How to get to the CX-9 spark plugs?

    Just a quick heads up for anyone else performing this procedure. I just did this on my 2008 CX9. The video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gPZrjQY0g5E is great, but a couple of notes about it: * The video and audio aren't always totally in sync (for instance he says "there's one vent line...

    Pioneer AVH-4200NEX - no video with 2008 OEM backup camera, RP4-MZ11, AX-MAZCAM-6V

    For the sake of others, I was able to get to the bottom of my 2 issues: * The camera was not showing a signal because the positive / negative video signal wires were reversed in the AX-MAZCAM-6V camera harness. I took apart my trunk and tested the connection at the connector to the camera. I...

    Pioneer AVH-4200NEX - no video with 2008 OEM backup camera, RP4-MZ11, AX-MAZCAM-6V

    Hi - I've swapped out my OEM Mazda head unit on my 2008 GT (Bose w/ NAV but no entertainment system) with a Pioneer AVH-4200NEX. The setup is working nearly perfectly: * Steering wheel controls appear to be fully operational * Output through the RCA jacks to the Bose is working just fine *...

    TSB requests - 03-006/08 and 03-004/08

    I'm hoping a Mazda guy might be able to dig up a couple of TSBs for me. "03-006/08 EXCESSIVE VIBRATION FROM PROPELLER SHAFT" "03-004/08 KNOCKING NOISE FROM DRIVESHAFT WHEN TURNING IN EXTREME COLD TEMPERATURES" Finish line doesn't have these posted... but I think 03-004/08 applies to my...

    2008 Mazda CX-9 GT Front-End Noise

    My dealer ended up performing TSB 03-006/08, just because they found that 'issue' as well. I found another listing of TSBs online, in particular here: http://www.alldatadiy.com/TSB/34/083478a3.html Unfortunately, Finish Line doesn't have the PDFs for all of these, and thats where I always...

    I'm getting a metallic clunk noise in the front end. Often times it happens while turning the wheel to the maximum amount allowed (in either direction). Sometimes it happens while riding over uneven or pitched pavement. Sometimes it happens while driving down a downwardly pitched driveway or...

    thumps and thuds over bumps

    I do see some other mentions of the groaning noise w/ the struts -- which I believe is the issue mentioned. (The service manager did mention a problem with a bushing). However, I was unable to track down a TSB. Still not sure if my clunk / knock noise will go away when the groan is...

    thumps and thuds over bumps

    Interesting... I just took my 08 CX-9 GT (I replaced the 20s with 19s) to the dealership for an oil change. Mentioned that I've been experiencing a strange clunk / knock in my front left axle area. This happens quite a bit when I'm turning 90 degrees into my garage when I straighten the wheel...
