    Aliexpress Wireless Carplay Adapter Review

    Im not familiar with the older ones, but this one seems to work like a charm. I was testing it for quite some time today. Its worked every time the car starts and its actually faster than using the cable. Audio and visuals are exactly the same. I did notice a very small delay when switching...

    Aliexpress Wireless Carplay Adapter Review

    I bought this adapter from Aliexpress. I had my doubts at first since its only $80 CDN shipped. https://a.aliexpress.com/_mt9yU9W Its super tiny and works very well. I was surprised. It doesn't lag at all and for some odd reason, it made my Carplay more stable. The cable method takes awhile...

    What 5W30 oil brand do you use in your CX-9?

    I used mobil 1, Castrol and now Kirkland. It all feels the same to me with my butt dyno. All paired with Fram tough guard

    Poll 2.5T Coolant Leak/Engine Replacement

    You pretty much summed it up. I dont see any pooling on the ground. Im not sure if i smell anything either. I’ll be doing another oil change in a week and will check the skid plate.

    Poll 2.5T Coolant Leak/Engine Replacement

    I checked my coolant today and it indeed dropped down about a centimeter from the last time. This is with the engine sitting overnight. At what point is it a warranty issue? Its not visibly leaking so I’m guessing they wont do anything except topping off the coolant.

    2021 CX-9 Burning oil

    My 2019 hasn't burned much oil since new. Are you positive there was enough oil after your last oil change? 1 qt for 4000 miles is quite a bit..

    Here a beep, there a beep…

    I don't find these sensors to be very reliable. When they are wet, they are not as sensitive. Sometimes they will only do the long beep when you are half an inch from hitting an object. The programming for the alerts is also pretty bad. If you are behind an object just at that point where it...

    No transmission kickdown (at higher speeds) from 2021 CX-9?

    Nothing really happens when you floor the accelerator when travelling over 120 kmph. It slowly gets up to speed at that point. This 4 cylinder turbo was designed for high torque at low rpms. The juice wears out at highway speeds. Sometimes there is no transmission kick down since its a moot point.

    Poll 2.5T Coolant Leak/Engine Replacement

    Yeah its parked in the same place, but the outside driveway has a crazy incline since the garage is below ground so nothing really pools up. I may consider the oil analysis but I’ll wait a bit longer

    Quite certain it was at or near full. The engine may have been hot at the time though.

    Poll 2.5T Coolant Leak/Engine Replacement

    So i called mazda this morning and the service advisor said its completely normal for the coolant to be at the low mark even if the engine is hot. He said its just an expansion tank and to not add anymore coolant to it. If it was leaking i would clearly see a leak somewhere according to his...

    Poll 2.5T Coolant Leak/Engine Replacement

    I posted something on another forum.. They said its a coolant leak. Likely head gasket. Its definitely not normal for the coolant to go down to the Low mark in just 60,000 kms. I’m worried this could be problematic down the road as I didn’t purchase extended warranty and plan on keeping this...

    Poll 2.5T Coolant Leak/Engine Replacement

    I just checked my coolant on my 2019 with 60,000 kms. Its right above the Low mark. Should I be worried? Seems to eat through coolant. I don’t normally fill them on previous vehicles for ages

    2016 CX-9 Signature leaking coolant

    Been hearing that the cause of the crack is due to the loctite securing the manifold to the engine. The loctite expands and contracts. Im wondering if we can just remove those bolts and clean out the loctite?

    2021 CX-9 CE Infotainment Monitor gets hot...Any solutions?

    Perhaps see if Mazda can help? Cars are designed to work in extreme temperatures. What you are experiencing is not normal by any means.

    Backlighting (spotlighting) toward the bottom of the screen. Anyone else?

    Looks like a little bit of backlight bleeding. It's pretty common on cheap televisions. If it bothers you, maybe Mazda can replace it. We don't have that issue on our 2019. Certainly not acceptable in a vehicle.
