    Considering a 2018 CX-9 but concerned about 2.5T oil consumption

    I had a 2016 Sig. that did use a little oil but had fuel dilution. I could smell the gas in it. I have had my 2021 Sig for over 2 years and 36,000mi. with no issues.

    Just purchased 2019 CX-9, can I add memory seats?

    It may be more involved and not have the wiring connections you need. It also may be very expensive. The oil filters I bought for $8.00 at the beginning of the year are now $12.50. My dealer told me Mazda went way up on their parts.

    Infotainment Keeps Rebooting (2022 CX-5)

    I have a 2021 Signature and had this problem yesterday a 100 mile trip and it rebooted about 30 times. I didn't see any resolution on this thread yet. My CX-9 is 18 months old and has 30,000 miles. Do you think it's still under any warranty and if not has anyone taken their car to the dealership...

    2018 CX9 GT AWD, AC cool but not cold

    I had a 2016 and now a 2021. The air conditioning at best is cool but not cold. Things have not changed over the years. When 2016 hit the market that was the biggest issue with new owners. I have had lots of Mazdas and the air conditioning has been very cold. It's too bad they haven't addressed...

    What have you done to your CX-9 today?

    I am curious to know what your fuel milage is when you install your JB4 and if you could install it without removing the front bumper.

    2021 CX-9 Burning oil

    Not sure why you are using so much oil but usually its rings or valve guide seals and possibly the turbo seals. PT Guy mentioned using the Mazda oil filter. I had a 2016 sig and now have a 2021 sig and both used a little oil but I was also told by the dealer if you don't use the Mazda oil filter...

    Poll 2.5T Coolant Leak/Engine Replacement

    I had a 2016 Sig and my new 2021 Sig drive the same. Very little turbo lag with both cars. The drive train seems to feel the same to me.

    CX-9 Maintenance interval suggestion

    I had a 2016 sig and I changed the plugs at 20,000 and they didn't look bad. I also changed my oil at 3,500. I noticed for a few oil changes that the level increased a little. The oil smelled like gas so i sent a sample to get an analysis which came back with a high amount of fuel in it. I now...
