    2016 CX-9 Rear shock removal question

    Does anyone have access to the suspension section in the shop manual for the 2016 and up CX-9? I am looking to replace the rear shocks along with the front but cannot seem to find the steps. I assume to access you need to remove the cup holders but not sure what else.

    Aftermarket Rotors\Pads for 2016 CX-9

    Hello All, I am looking to replace brakes and rotors soon on my 2016 CX-9. The stock rotors have a bad tendency to rust so something that resist as much rust would be better. What brands have you all gone to? I looked at the Powerstop kits and EBC so far.

    2016 and up High mileage Suspension replacement question

    I usually get my parts from an online mazda dealer. They usually have a pretty good discount and I can drive down to pick the parts up to save on shipping. I may look to the shop that did my leveling kit on my truck to see how much they charge to replace them.

    That's what I thought. OE shocks seem to be the only option. Looking at about $400 - $500 in parts only. :eek:

    Thanks mchu123. I have been following your post as well. Did you see any other signs of the leak other than the low coolant? I pulled the plastic protective cover under my 16 CX-9 and found no signs of leaks on the engine, water pump or on the plastic.

    Thanks everyone for the responses. I did buy FL-22 from Mazda and like I said it was not that low. I see no leaks anywhere and I am not sure what level the reservoir was at before. I purchased the car new in 2016 and never checked the levels on the coolant before. So I will keep an eye on it...
