The other thing i was wondering is if it could be a symptom of the common transfer case issue in those model year ( if it is AWD).

Have the brake inspected (or do it yourself if you have the skill). My Cx-9 was doing a bad screeching when backing only and it was a clip that had detached and was rubbing when going backward. My sound was different than yours but the symptom was the same. It could be something else related to...

It wasn’t easy to find but this guy points them out at 1:19 in this video. I don’t have any source, but it is possible the turbo may not have them because it is also where the intercooler is.

Isn’t it this part ? https://www.mazda-parts.com/oem-parts/mazda-shutter-assembly-kb8a50r10a

It is possible they caused an issue with the active grill shutter, but it is more likely just the computer relearning the range estimate. Other possible options would be if they didn’t reassemble the air intake properly.

I have only changed my battery once on my 2018. And that was last year. I expect it will last me at least 4 years.

The number of widgets displayed depends on the size of the screen. My 2018 CX-9 shows 1, my BMW shows 2. You can edit which widgets gets shown in your phone settings, but you cannot as far as I know make it show more widgets at once (there is no option that I can see to make it show 2 smaller...

Actually checked the photo on the link you provided and it looks like the left and right catch are different from each other.

You need 2 catch and 2 x trim cover (one for each side, not sure if thebleft and the right are identical or not). They don’t come with the car and should have come in the box with the cargo cover. If it was bought used it is possible they were left in the previous car.

Might be worth looking into replacing the spark plugs, that is about when they are due. Other possible cause could be a stuck brake caliper, although if it was that bad you would probably smell the burnt brake pads. If you are only doing city driving and a lot of idling it could show that...

Width does not affect it. It is because the combination of the wheels diameter (21 inch) + the tire thickness does not equal the same total diameter as the CX-9 20 inch wheels + the CX-9 tire diameter. If wheel and tire combine to be a larger diameter, then the wheel will turn more slowly for...

if you do your speedometer will read low, but not by much. I think you will be driving 1 or 2 mph faster than indicated

According to wheel-size.com The CX-9 20 inch wheels are 8.5J x ET 45 CX-90 21 inch are 9.5J x ET 45 When you compare the wheels the CX-90 rim will stick out 1/2 inch on both side (towards the outside and the inside). That is probably fine but check the clearance on your CX-9. I don’t...
