    How many miles did the OEM (factory) tires last on your CX-9?

    Just over 45,000 miles and still going. I have them rotated every oil change (5000 miles) and last inspection I was told tires are at 50% (whatever that means). I haven't had an alignment yet and like you, I'm waiting until I get new tires to do that.

    Spent most of the week driving a 2013 CX-9 Sport

    Glad to hear the surgery went well! I have a 2010 Sport and I agree that it is very nice for the bottom model. Mine came with a few more options: power driver's seat, heated front seats, heated mirrors, auto-dimming rear-view mirror, rear-view camera, all-weather floor mats, and rear bumper...

    Doors locking??

    My 2010 does. It's fun to watch the kids run to the car when I tell them they have 30 seconds before it re-locks...

    Climate control AUTO ON issue

    Thought about this post this morning. Outside temperature was 74 and the climate control was set to auto and 72. At start up, recirculate was active and after a few minutes, the recirculate shut itself off. My guess is that when the interior temperature setting is close to the outside temp...

    Can I use 5w-30 instead?

    Just had my oil changed at the dealer and they used Mazda's 0w-20 full synthetic. First impression is that it appears to run quieter and smoother.

    Weird - resuming cruise control, Trans/Tach freakin out?

    That does seem odd. When I hit resume any sooner than about 5 MPH away from the set speed, it does like your truck does - it goes up to speed as if I put the petal to the floor. I wish it took it's time to get there.

    Pearl White or Brilliant Black? Help!

    I have the Brilliant Black with sand interior. Although it wasn't my first choice of color (I really wanted the Copper Red Mica), I think the color combination looks great. As tonyj mentioned, the black does show dust quite a bit and I feel the white wouldn't show it as much. I've had it for...

    Are the two power window swithces supposed to be lighted?

    All the window switch lights work on my 2010 Sport. I checked my build date and it's 02/10. I wonder why they would make that change?

    How many miles do you have on your CX-9

    CX9ZoomR, I have a similar issue with acorn dings on my roof and I'm waiting for the weather to get nicer before I bring it in. How did the repair turn out?

    Looking for a more comfortable ride

    I think the perceived quality of the ride may also be related to the vehicle it replaced. Case in point - I traded a F-150 SuperCrew for the CX-9 and I feel the CX-9 ride is fantastic and a great improvement over the F150. But I possibly would feel differently if my previous vehicle had a...

    I agree with sjg regarding the accuracy of the average mpg reading. Mine is usually within .5 mpg.

    Trip from Cali to Vegas MPG

    I'm consistantly getting just over 20 mpg just cruising around town. But I live in the "country" with little stop and go driving.
