    2nd Gen CX-9 High mileage club, how's it holding up?

    I posted in that thread. Currently trying the extended warranty, as the dealership is declaring me out of the powertrain warranty. I'll contact Mazda North America corporate offices if the extended warranty denies me, as I'm a brand loyal Mazda Fanboy. Several 1st gen RX-7s, Several 2nd gen...

    Poll 2.5T Coolant Leak/Engine Replacement

    Hello! I'm joining the party! I rolled 65K this past weekend and did my standard 5K mile oil change. I noted a strong scent of coolant (sweet, syrupy, etc.) while standing outside the car with the engine idling. I noted a dark green and whitish residue all over the oil filter and surrounding...

    Long Term Review - PowerStop Z17 Evolution Plus Ceramic Brake pads - 2nd Gen CX-9

    They told me 2mm. The dealership has a little feeler gauge that goes in behind the caliper to get the back pad that you can't see.

    Long Term Review - PowerStop Z17 Evolution Plus Ceramic Brake pads - 2nd Gen CX-9

    I usually skip the "Economy" and "Daily Driver" class pads and go straight to the "Premium" and "Heavy Duty" class pads on my vehicles. Up until recently, Akebono has been my supplier of choice. However those pads lack the squeaker tabs that let you know the pad is at end of life. That coupled...

    Long Term Review - PowerStop Z17 Evolution Plus Ceramic Brake pads - 2nd Gen CX-9

    Dealership parts are expensive, but I'm thinking you're right. I'll try a few more pad compounds before going back though.

    2nd Gen CX-9 High mileage club, how's it holding up?

    Coolant leaks necessitating an engine block replacement?! Great... Now y'all got me nervous. 55K on the clock. I did the Spark Plugs at 50K. They didn't look that bad. Just had the trans and differential serviced. And I did brakes... Again. Just reviewed the pads I pulled off of it...

    Virginia has an annual state safety inspection and while the CX-9 was under warranty, I was taking it into the dealership for oil changes. June 2020 at 40K miles, I had been notified that the rear brakes were reaching the end of their life. I decided to order some upgraded brake pads for the...

    https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1zQI9FrNJAOrCgMxjeDoQY01ms5q5_u7O The wiring diagrams through 2019 are colorized, but I wasn't able to digitize the bodywork diagrams. The wiring diagrams through 2021 are complete, but not colorized.

    Anyone got a lotta free time on their hands?

    UPDATE! I have finally added the Body diagrams... Unfortunately, they are in black and white instead of color like the old ones are. They include info through 2021 model year units.

    2nd Gen CX-9 High mileage club, how's it holding up?

    I've got a 2018. It's got 40K miles on the clock now. It was put into service exactly two years ago; June 2018. To give you an idea of the type of driving that this SUV gets, I live in Washington DC. This car gets well over the regional average of 12-15K miles per year put on it. I drive hard...
